Haller’s name is not new to OPNET, as she was previously arrested by OPNET and partner agencies during the “Operation Spring Cleaning” warrant round up in May of 2019. The intelligence sharing that occurs due to this relationship has proven its value in this and many other cases. OPNET has developed a strong working relationship with DOC’s Investigation and Intelligence Unit. Haller was arrested without incident in Port Angeles, interviewed, and was booked into the Clallam County Jail. OPNET conducted further investigation, including interviews with inmates and found probable cause that Haller committed the crimes of Delivery of a Controlled Substance and Introducing Contraband in the 2nd Degree, both Class C felonies. Lab tests confirmed the substances from both mail pieces contained Buprenorphine, the opioid contained in Suboxone. Mail to two separate inmates had been intercepted by DOC staff and were suspected to contain Suboxone, a Schedule III controlled substance. In November of 2021, Department of Corrections (DOC) Investigations Officers contacted OPNET regarding contraband that was mailed into the Women’s Correctional Center for Women (WCCW), in Gig Harbor, Washington. Haller for Delivery of a Controlled Substance (Buprenorphine) and Introducing Contraband in the 2nd Degree. Don't waste it.On Wednesday, March 2nd, OPNET Detectives arrested 33-year-old Sequim resident Marie J. Remember that the spring rebirth is filled with the desire to start again. Spring is here, and it's up to you how you want to spend the upcoming longer days and shorter nights. Treat yourself to a great spring cleaning of your wardrobe and mind – something which can take you in a new, more conscious direction of operation. Welcome the changes that spring brings - in nature and in your own life. Plant the seeds of everything you want to harvest. Become inspired by the new life that is starting to grow around. Inhale the fragrant flowers that begin to bloom. And given the current situation in the world, it is precisely small local businesses that have been affected incomparably more than large fashion chains. In addition, local sales support is very transparent - you know where and from who your product comes from. This gives small businesses and local artists the strength to grow, instead of supporting the vicious circle of great fashion magnates. When you shop locally, you put your money back into the hands of creators in your community. The mass aspect is notable by its absence, and handmade production infuses value into every detail of a lovingly crafted product. Slow fashion brands produce their products locally - something which allows control over the supply chain process, and working conditions. Yes, the monetary price for the goods we buy is higher, but making a conscious purchase is actually cheaper in the long run: when we eat healthier, we enjoy a healthier life, and when we shop better, we don't have to buy so much. And it is also a form of "uniqueness", because handmade dresses or jewellery are unique and rare, and often one of a kind. It is an art form that takes care of every single detail. Slow fashion appreciates every aspect of the product, we know the history of the brand and the manufacturers themselves. Brands that prioritize quality over quantity. While around 80 billion new garments are produced worldwide each year, currently 80 percent of all garments produced end up in incinerators.įortunately, everything has an opposite, and a wave of slow fashion brands was created.


Excessive water and the use of pesticides and other toxic chemicals such as fabric dyes that damage soil, biodiversity and water resources for local communities are needed to grow the required raw materials. However, carbon emissions are by no means the only environmental threat in industry. The fashion industry is responsible for about 10% of global carbon growth, and produces 5 times more CO2 than the aerospace industry. Fast fashion chains are one of the biggest polluters on the planet. While a T-shirt in the tempting sale may cost only 5 Euro, a countless number of resources such as material, thousands of litres of water, energy, labour, transportation and packaging have gone into it. The culture of single-use and cheap, but low-quality products is “guilty” of a lot more than it may seem. Minimalism is the fundamental direction for a society so overwhelmed with consumption where we want everything immediately and we want a lot of it. A life inspired by the purity of minimalism - in addition to the obvious well-being of the soul – also has an impact on our only home - the planet.
