They look like upstanding citizens, Im sure this is a simple misunderstanding.
They look like “very fine people” as Trump would say.
The brothers used to work at my work as electricians 6 years ago
Yeah they look like electrician’s all right. Where’s your work? Lock them up.
Kinda sad there doing shit like that
Losers
Once again my sister made the billboard. Awesome!!! Hopefully she gets locked up for a couple years, I think that’s the only way she will get better. I love her but will have nothing to do with her until she’s clean!!! I love you Court, I pray you get the max. It’s time to stop!!
Same lady connected in the packages being stolen off of front porches. She looks terrible!
More drug related crime.
Thanks Captain Obvious
I don’t know about the guys. But the female, is my sister in law. Haven’t had anything to do with her since 2012 because of her choices and addiction. Our entire family has been effected by her addiction and choices. It has us divided because some choose to make excuses and enable her, which isn’t helping her. I will say this, she does not deserve to be “smoked” she may be a theif do to her lifestyle and a drug addict but she has never been a violent person, she has two awesome kids who love her dispite her issues and whom are hurting so much. And so reading things like she should be “smoked” makes me think of them and I can only pray that “the system” doesn’t fail to hold her accountable for her actions and that they hopefully give her maximum sentance so just maybe she can clean up long enough to wake up! That she might get some rehab and get some serious time away from the people she’s been calling “friends” and the family that enables her (which isnt helping her) and anough distance from her beautiful children enough for her to “feel” and really change her life for the better. Because she’s not an evil person. She doesn’t deserve to die. So save comments like that for murderers, rapist, and pedophiles! She deserves to do time. I hope she gets a couple years, and she NEEDS rehab and counseling, but she doesn’t deserve death!
Re- read what he wrote, he couldnt be referring to her, because she has already been arrested. Other then that, nobody is going to feel sorry for her, she made those chpoices. If her kids arent motivation for her to get clean , then nothing will. The issue with these crimes that people want to down play, is that the crimes get more serious and the stakes get higher, the longer you use meth.
Right, this grows progressively worse and users are dangerous: “Violence is more commonly associated with the production, distribution, and abuse of methamphetamine than with any other illicit drug. As the euphoric effects of methamphetamine diminish, abusers enter the “tweaking” stage in which they are prone to violence, delusions, paranoia, and feelings of emptiness and dysphoria. During the “tweaking” stage the user often has not slept in days and consequently is extremely irritable. The “tweaker” also craves more methamphetamine, which results in frustration and contributes to anxiety and restlessness. At this stage methamphetamine users may become violent without provocation. Case histories indicate that “tweakers” have reacted violently to the mere sight of a police uniform.”

How embarrassing!!! I do not feel bad for her because she is ultimately making these bad decisions but how embarsssing for her family AND kids. She needs to stop hanging out with these low lives and get her life together. First stealing packages and now she’s moved on to getting uhauls to steal! That’s serious. She’s progressively getting worse. Not to mention she looks awful. What are you doing Courtney?! Get some help!!!
These guys got caught stealing packages earlier this year. Great people
On January 23, 2018 at approximately 2:20pm, Oakley Police Officers were notified that a female had stolen a package off a porch on Creekside Way.
Officers were provided with a video of the suspect and the vehicle. Officers responded to the area and located the vehicle traveling on Laurel Road near Main Street. A traffic stop was conducted and the female suspect was located in the passenger seat, the stolen package was in the rear seat.
The female suspect was identified as Courtney Miles 37-year old female from Oakley. The male driver provided a false name and was later identified as Ryan Marino a 34 year old male out of Antioch.
Miles was booked into the Main Jail for petty theft and possession of stolen property. Marino was booked for outstanding warrants, violation of probation, and driving on a suspended license.
Goes to show how soft this state is on crime.
When you steal from the public, it becomes a public issue…Now STFU!
When your mugshots are all over the internet you’ve MADE it the publics business! As for your opinion of myself or her brother…LOL!! We ARE concerned about her. We have been affected by her choices to the point our family has been devided by them. We chose to not be ok with the things she had done and how it affected us, our kids and hers! We have only HOPED she’d get it figured out and get the help she needs. As for you, who are you to tell us to get some class? Never heard of a classy drug addict or thief. She’s in jail and your hiding from the consequences of a crime you probably masterminded and leaving her to face it alone all the while hiding behind your keyboard talking shit to people commenting on an article with your infamous mugshot on it. So if YOUR concerned or care about Courtney how about you be a man tough guy and turn yourself in! I only commented because of the death wish comments. Maybe I should have ignored it but I couldn’t help but think of my niece or nephew coming across this and reading this and seeing a comment like that about their mom. It’s just sad. Those kids don’t deserve any of this! I just hope she stays away from you and anyone like you once she gets out. And I PRAY she stays in AWHILE so she just might get cleaned up enough to get the help she needs and I also pray the family who continues to enable her, by “helping” her financially etc and who baby her and feel sorry for her and blame everyone else for her choices stop “helping” her! Allow her to go through the process this time without meddling so she can actually learn something and hit rock bottom enough to want to help herself!! Because enabling is NOT helping her! And only she can fix herself. And her brother does love her, more then you ever could. He just wont have anything to do with her because of her addiction and lifestyle and how she’s chosen to live! Been 6 years now we haven’t had anything to do with her and she’s only got worse! Its not out of lack of love, but out of caring enough about our own happiness and our children’s to not allow it to consume us by being a part of it all and pretending it’s acceptable or that we should have to tolerate it because she is “family”!
Shes 37 ? Shes not changing her shady ways, lets all be honest here.
Not feeling the love for any of them. They cleaned out my storage unit and I am pissed.
I work hard for my business and my money. They have made life hell for a lot of people. Thank you OPD for your work. I personally really appreciate it.
This is the father of Derek Marino and Ryan Marino.I’m coming to the defense of Derek, my oldest son, to say that he had nothing to do with this theft or any of the other thefts. He issued a statement this morning at the request of Detective England of the Oakley PD. As a result, the Oakley PD has removed Derek’s name from the arrest warrant.
The photo that was posted on Facebook was from an old arrest years ago. Most of us have a past, especially from our youth, what’s important is we learn from our mistakes and I believe Derek is doing just that!
I am very sorry to say that l can’t say the same thing for my son Ryan or Courtney, however it does break my heart to see where drug addiction is taking them. I know there is very good chance that many that have made comments on this post have family members affected by drug addiction that has also affected them. Drug addiction doesn’t just destroy the lives of those who choose to remain in their addiction.It can also destroy the lives of those family members around them, removing their hopes dreams and aspirations, especially the children of the parents involved.
I sincerely apologize to those being affected, who have lost property due to these thefts. I pray that my son Ryan and Courtney do the right thing and return all the stolen property.
You owe him an apology
I’m sorry you as a parent have to deal with this, I had an addict brother for many years and I know the toll it took on my parents and siblings. Thank you for your post and not making excuses as most parents do. I know it took a lot out of you to put yourself out there. Prayers to you and your family. My brother got clean in jail and committed his life to Jesus and that was the answer. Hopefully they all get enough jail time to open their eyes. Not that it makes it an easier for your family but maybe that will be the healing you all need.

This is such a pathetic string of posts. Oh my poor sister whatever is a cranker with kids but cant get her stuff together… oh my poor son has been a loser thief cranker but not this time… blahblahblah!! No losers !
I have no sympathy for these worthless pieces of fecal matter, cranker turds!! All you soory family members piping in… your excuses are great indicators that you have enabled these turds to become what they have become!! Thieves, cranksters losers!!
I hope they all go away, die or otherwise before they return to infect our community!!
As stated before…. storage units bring more crime to our city…
Wow.
I want to say thank you, to the
“Thank-you” post. Great news about your brother! I confessed Jesus as Lord of my life when I was 42.
So I know how important that is to you and how that decision will change your brother!
I realize my post yesterday hit a nerve with some, not all agreed, and that’s okay. Loving, encouraging and praying for your children in the midst of their bad decisions is not enabling them.
I want to challenge those reading this post with this thought…..
What if everyone in our community and our nation, everyone, began obeying just Two of The Ten Commandments that our Lord wrote on stone tablets?
1)Thou shalt not murder
2)Thou shalt not steal
Just think of how different our community would be if everyone just stopped breaking these two Commandments alone.
I bet half of our police departments would be looking for work, rather than being swamped and overwhelmed with work.
The amazing thing is that these are only Two Commandments.The Lord wrote 10!
When we remove God from the equation, chaos ensues. The opioid epidemic in this country is a direct result of people trying to fill the void in their inner being that only God can fill through a right relationship with His Son Jesus Christ.
I know there’s some who have posted on this site because they’ve been directly affected by my son Ryan’s bad decisions and for that I apologize. I’m not making excuses for Ryan, but as a father l have not given up on him, as l am grateful that the Lord did not give up on me!
As my Pastor says, “We can stay bitter, or we can get better”, I choose to get better!
@ECT…I think it’s time to close this comment section.
Agree!
I find it amazing that people can curse, slander, character assassinate and vomit emotional bitterness all over this comment section and ECT is ok with that.
But as soon as the name ofJesus Christ is used for testimony to give glory to God ECT shuts down the comment section. With all due respect ECT, this is exactly why this country is in the condition it’s in.
I’m trying to send this through one more time as I think you’ve already blocked any posting. I will respect ECT wishes and not post anymore.
Thank you.
Some of your comments were in spam due to multiple comments, which were approved. Honestly, I do not check comments each post and some go to spam, some are approved instantly. That said, some of the comments have gone sideways so I did just close the comments as of 3:20 pm and will be removing some of them shortly that really are nothing more than hot air.
