DATE/TIME: Sunday, December 22, 2024/8:36 P.M.

INCIDENT: HS 11395(b)(1) - Treatment Mandated Felony Possession of Hard Drugs

LOCATION: Pipeline Avenue and Chino Hills Parkway, Chino Hills

SUSPECT(S): Christian Hennessee, 33-year-old resident of Chino Hills

VICTIM(S): State of California


SUMMARY: On November 5, 2024, California voters passed Proposition 36 titled “The Homelessness, Drug Addiction and Theft Reduction Act.” The proposition took effect on December 18, 2024, and reforms multiple laws from Proposition 47, which have been responsible for increasing homelessness, drug addiction and theft. Proposition 36 includes several new Penal and Health and Safety Codes that deputies will be able to apply during arrests when appropriate. These new charges can carry enhanced sentencing, as well as prevent offenders from being cite released prior to their court appearance. The following is an arrest where Proposition 36 is applied:

On Sunday, December 22, 2024, deputies from the Chino Hills Sheriff's Station conducted proactive patrol on Pipeline Avenue near Chino Hills Parkway and contacted Christian Hennessee, a 33-year-old resident of Chino Hills. Deputies located a usable amount of suspected methamphetamine in Hennessee's possession and found he had several prior convictions in the State of California for hard drug possession. Hennessee was arrested and booked at West Valley Detention Center.
