Cantonment Man Facing Drug Charges

January 5, 2013

A Cantonment man is facing multiple drug charges.

Billy David Clakley, 24, was charged with possession of marijuana less than 20 grams, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of a scheduled narcotic without a prescription, possession of drug paraphernalia and resisting an officer without violence. He was released from the Escambia County Jail on a $6,500 bond.

An Escambia County deputy reported being on patrol in the 400 block of Lakeview Avenue where a small party was being held. The deputy reported that as he approached, Clakley jumped into a Toyota parked close to the road and began to yell obscenities.

Inside the vehicle with Clakley, the deputies found a bag of marijuana and Clonazepam pills, a scheduled narcotic. In Clakley’s pockets, deputies found a bag of marijuana, digital scales with heavy marijuana residue and bags like those used commonly used to package the drug, according to an arrest report.

When Clakley was placed under arrest by deputies, he pulled in an effort to get away. “Clakley continued to be uncooperative and had to be assisted to my patrol vehicle,” an arresting deputy wrote in his report.

    And yet we worry about it, even without permission.
    I guess we don’t know our place.

    David for worry-free zones

    Living in the “Village” has nothing to do with you becoming a drug dealer. I lived in the village all my teen life and did not sell or do drugs. The only reason the “Village” has a bad reputation now is because of these kind of low lives that live there now. There are plenty of good decent people who live in the village – so its not the “Village” that makes people do this, its the people who CHOOSE to do this. They should lock this thug up before he does hurt someone-its just a matter of time, looking at his record.

    Spoken like a true gentlemen (or lady), Know. It is our business, as a society. When thugs like this sell drugs, it’s an issue we all need to be aware of. How would you feel if he sold drugs to one of your loved ones, or our child. One less dealer/seller caught and off the streets is all the better. If he/you don’t want the public 1. To redicule it 2. To KNOW, then don’t do it to begin with.

    well somebody has to be the bad guy for yall to talk about so whats the problem. and maybe find out what really happened. and yelling aint a crime.

    @woried A real high bail is all relative to the financial situation of the individual. Whereas a 5000 dollar bail might be a jail sentence to some, to others it is nothing. That being said, the Constitution of the United States strictly forbids excessive bail so the point of the discussion is moot.

    They are using the jail. The jail does not have the capacity the hold every single person arrested. There are bonds set and court dates given. Once convicted, he will be sent to the appropriate facility to serve his time.

    They put him in jail, then let him out. It really makes no sense to arrest him then let him out, knowing that he is just going to go and do it again. If you put him in, give a real high bail. If he then gets out put on house arrest and find a way to keep him from doing it again. Let the charges stick and stop letting the druggies out to repeat what they went to jail for. Pensacola has a Jail USE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
