A woman out on bond for drug trafficking was rearrested days later after deputies found her carrying meth in a tote bag labeled: “Definitely Not a Bag Full of Drugs,” according to Florida investigators.
The discovery was made during a traffic stop in Brevard County, about 10 days after the woman was released from jail, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release Sunday.
Deputy Lexi Gordon made the discovery when her K9 partner took an interest in “a few bags” belonging to a passenger in the vehicle, officials said. The driver granted permission for a search, “stating nothing illegal should be inside,” the sheriff’s office said.
“Well unfortunately for (the driver), this is the part you just can’t make up, (his passenger) had a few bags with her and one of them had the words “Definitely Not a Bag Full of Drugs” printed on it! The bag was filled with … drugs,” the sheriff’s office said.
“Deputy Gordon located methamphetamine, needles, Narcan, digital scales, small baggies, cut straws and other items associated with drugs.”
The 31-year-old woman was arrested and charged with felony possession of methamphetamine with intent to manufacture and deliver, felony amphetamine/methamphetamine trafficking, and misdemeanor possession/use of drug paraphernalia, jail records show.
Those are the same charges the woman faced when arrested 10 days earlier, records show.
Brevard County is about a 40-mile drive east from Orlando.
