Cantonment Woman Facing Enhanced Felony Charge For Burglary During COVID-19 Pandemic
April 15, 2020
A Cantonment woman is facing an enhanced first degree felony charge for allegedly committing a burglary during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Jennifer Christine Taylor, 34, was charged with burglary of an unoccupied dwelling during a state of emergency, grand theft and possession of marijuana.
Deputies responded to a call in the 2800 block of Highway 297A where it was reported that a male was holding a female at gunpoint. They arrived to find the male was not armed and Taylor standing inside a chain link fence.
Taylor told deputies she lived down the street. She said she that the night before she was walking home and had stopped to rest. She said when she put her backpack on again, she slung her cell phone out and over the fence. After daylight, she said she returned to look for her phone, according to an arrest report.
The report states Taylor was next to a trash can full of stolen items valued at $1,075, many of which were last seen in an enclosed breezeway of the home. She told deputies she had no knowledge how the trash can full items got there. The items include a fiberglass boat box valued at $635, battery charger, hedge trimmer, shovel, an antique wood box, boat life ring and miscellaneous hardware.
A white plastic tube on the ground underneath Taylor’s backpack contained 3.2 ounces of marijuana, the report said.
Taylo remained in the Escambia County jail early Wednesday morning with bond set at $6,000.

REGARDING:
“fantasize about shooting unarmed trespassers. You’re insecure and have no life”
On the other hand, he is still alive and trying to help would-be burglars stay that way with the generous warning. (Some are not so generous.) When people break into your home, you have no assurance they are unarmed, no reason to assume you and your family are safe.
David for giving the homeowner the benefit of the doubt
@sedition you’re an idiot. People like you sit around and fantasize about shooting unarmed trespassers. You’re insecure and have no life
I would really like to know if there is ANY drug facilities in Escambia county ( NOT LAKEVIEW.WHAT A JOKE ) That will help without charging THOUSANDS of dollars to help get the WILLING ONES CLEAN / SOBER.
Note to looters, burglars, robbers and home invaders…
There will be NO warning shots.
Sorry, times are tough and ammo is expensive.
Some people are just plain selfish and want money to buy other things
….trust me-many use drugs as an excuse to steal, thinking they will
get “help” rather than the prison sentence they actually deserve. I
have personal knowledge with someone in our family!
First of all, she doesn’t look very happy about the current state of things.
Second of all, did these items just happen to jump in the can and follow her out to the fence line? And I’m sure somebody drove by and just happened to throw the weed at her feet
Good, throw the book at her.
When drugs capture you, you will do anything to get money for a buy.
