Troopers Stop Highway 29 Speeder, Charge Him With Drugs, Weapons
September 4, 2023
Troopers arrested an Escambia County man on drug and weapons charges after a short chase on Highway 29 Sunday.
Jaylin Anthony Green, 22, was charged with aggravated fleeing and eluding with property damage, reckless driving, hit and run, possession of a weapon during a felony, possession of marijuana, and possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute.
A Florida Highway Patrol trooper was northbound on Highway 29 near Boone Street when he observed a white Dodge Challenger southbound at a high rate of speed. After clocking the Challenger at 74 mph in a 45 mph zone, the trooper initiated a traffic stop.
According to FHP, Green “recklessly accelerated at a high rate of speed, crossing multiple lanes of traffic from the inside lane to the outside lane, nearly sticking another vehicle while doing so. Approximately after 600 feet the vehicle began braking excessively before attempting to turn right onto West Michigan Avenue. While attempting to negotiate the turn at a high rate of speed, the front left wheel struck the curb, ultimately disabling the Challenger, preventing it from fleeing any longer. The Challenger finally came to a stop at Hansen Boulevard and Yoakum Court in the roadway.”
Troopers reported finding “well over” 20 grams of marijuana in the car, a loaded Ruger handgun under the driver’s seat, a Glock handgun with an extended magazine, and a “large sum” of cash.
Green was booked into the Escambia County Jail without bond.

So creating social programs to ensure people don’t have to resort to crime and providing addiction counseling is the same thing as slavery.
ok bud.
REGARDING:
“Our society produces people”
But does it really? Sure it affects people and it makes some things easier and some things harder. Does it really create the people?
A car manufacturer sets out to manufacture cars. It has certain criteria that it must meet or else it can’t sell them. It can be held legally liable for poor design and manufacturing by someone outside of the company if it fails to do a proper job.
I’m reminded of the ridiculous statement “It takes a village.” Well if something cannot be done unless the entire village is in on it, not much of anything will ever be done. (That could be associated with those villages are very seldom respected. What with their dirt streets,
dirt floors, high disease rates, poverty, and crime.) People as individuals will have different goals. They will not all agree on procedures. They will not agree on desired outcomes.
For example those people in society who are already criminals might actually feel bad about producing people who are not criminals. People who don’t cheat might not feel good about other people ratting them out when they cheat.
Therefore, it would be silly to expect society or a village or anything else to be the determining factor in what a person turns out to be. Even loving parents do not always get the perfect children they thought they were producing.
But that’s okay because we cannot force people to be certain types of people. They have a certain degree of freedom. They can decide to do this or not to do this, to do something else. So if our goal were to eliminate criminal element? Pretty well the only way to do it would be to enslave them all — not just body but mind as well — and force them to fit in the mold that we pick out for them and cut off or squeeze out the parts that don’t fit.
And that is definitely not what American society is about. We complain when freedom is misused. We complain when people make bad decisions. We complain when people decide to prey upon others. But we would complain worse if we were completely straight jacketed.

Cousin Jaylin,
You’re in luck. It turns out you are not responsible for your own actions. It is society’s fault. I knew Cousin Bob would come through for us.
David for personal responsibility
well at least from other people
@Bob – Re: What factors led to this guy reaching this point in his life, and what can we do to mitigate those problems to make sure they don’t impact other people?
I’ll tell ya, he probably makes WAY more than I do at my job which is why he does this, I imagine. The thing he lacks that I do not is morals. If he had an ounce of them, he would choose a legal job and stop putting his life and the lives of others at risk.
Let’s say that I own a car company. We release a new model, and within weeks, we start receiving complaints that these cars frequently overheat. I insist that there is nothing wrong with the manufacturing process, and all of those cars must just have a poor work ethic.
That would be dumb, right?
Our society produces people. If a significant number of people in that society are resorting to crime, then maybe we should ask “why?”. What factors led to this guy reaching this point in his life, and what can we do to mitigate those problems to make sure they don’t impact other people?
Man all the unnecessary speeding and you know you was loaded. Man the money can help so many people. I know this little dude.
Cousin Jaylin, tisk tisk. You’re going to make the family look bad.
(No I don’t know him but we’re all kin if you go back far enough.)
At least we can depend on Cousin Bob to tell us that it’s all our fault.
David for better kinfolks
Inflation would exceed any interest gains. Where could they get interest rates that would be worth it?
It’s just weed. I dont have any issues with Marijuana, I mean most state’s I work in its legal. Should be legal everywhere. But the guns were legal and the selling of the weed and having all the cash and phones is an issue. All yall are quick to judge people probably don’t have perfect lives yourselves. I hope he gets a lesson from this to straighten himself up by all means.
This poison is on the streets everywhere. I wish they could catch every last one of them.
Someone’s supplying him and others are buying. Download all contacts in those cellphones and go after them ASAP.
Looking at those blue stripes on that money thats alot of hundreds and plenty of phones. We are looking at a big time thug.
In his twenties!!!! Hopefully when he gets out he’ll be in hi 70s !!! It’s ridiculous just a kid running guns drugs and wanting to be a criminal!!! All achieved now do your time in prison!!!!!!
People like this dude don’t have an ounce of care for anyone else. God bless our Law Enforcement! Thank you!
Man, that’s a lot of dough! If that stack is all $100 bills… oh my!
Instead of directly purchasing equipment, novelties, devices, etc., the ECSO should deposit that money and earn dividends/interest. Then pay for equipment, novelties, devices, etc. with the dividends/interest, thus forming a perpetual fund with all these drug dollars.
Put this money to work for businesses and all citizens through the financial sector, and fund public sector benefits.
At least the guns were legal.
I guess having to keep up with all those phones and guns and money and drugs, he just didn’t have time to do his hair.
What a big dummy…first of all, great job FHP! Second, these types aren’t too bright are they? Running around with guns and dope while speeding…SMH. If this car belongs to this fella I say take it and auction it off. The cash they are found with? Seize it and take it and the proceeds from the auction of the vehicle and divvy it up amongst the Veteran Services or one of the many Kids houses around the areas these crimes take place. Yes, before THAT ONE comes and comments, I know the vehicle may be on a finance schedule but oh well. We know these that live this drug life do so because it’s easier than getting a REAL MEANS of employment but hold them accountable for their fines from such transgressions…HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE! But, some don’t want to do right and WANT to go to prison so we let that happen…can anyone say TENT CITY PRISON? As long as they are given their “essentials” then it’s not against their rights to live/work in one. By the way, they broke the law so what rights do they deserve? If I have anything to say/do about it they don’t have any/get any. Say what you will buy I’m tired of them living a crime life and we have to pay to house them while the majority of the law abiding citizens have to do without because of inflation and other factors….
Take his cash,and car put him in prison for a long time
