On January 1, 2025, at 7:04 AM, Skylynn Raine Coomer, a 19-year-old resident of Ormond Beach, Florida, was arrested in Volusia County for possession of cannabis in excess of 20 grams. The charge, filed under Florida Statute 893.13(6)(a), carries serious consequences as it involves amounts above the state’s threshold for misdemeanor possession. Her bond was set at $2,500.
Under Florida law, possession of cannabis exceeding 20 grams is classified as a third-degree felony. Convictions can lead to penalties including up to five years in prison, fines of up to $5,000, probation, and mandatory substance abuse treatment programs. Florida enforces strict drug possession laws, with enhanced penalties for repeat offenses or circumstances involving intent to distribute.
This arrest follows a prior incident on August 10, 2024, in which Coomer was charged with battery (touch or strike) under Florida Statute 784.03(1)(a)1, stemming from an altercation. At that time, her bond was set at $500. Battery charges of this type involve intentionally touching or striking another person against their will or causing physical harm.
Coomer’s recent arrest for cannabis possession adds to her legal challenges, and she is expected to face court proceedings for the new charge in the coming weeks. Authorities in Volusia County continue to emphasize the importance of adhering to state drug laws and stress the consequences of repeated legal violations. This case highlights the ongoing efforts to enforce Florida’s drug and public safety laws.
