Cantonment Man Sentenced To Prison For Drug Possession, Evidence Tampering, Fleeing

November 25, 2024

A Cantonment man has been sentenced to station prison in a 2023 drug and evidence tampering case.

Charlie Clifford Davis, 54, was convicted of possession of a controlled substance, possession of marijuana tampering with evidence, fleeing and eluding, driving with a suspended license third or subsequent offense, possession of drug paraphernalia, and improper tag.

He was sentenced to 18 months in state prison by Judge Coleman Robinson.

In September 2023, the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office attempted a traffic stop near Durand Avenue and Elliot Street. Deputies said the driver of the vehicle threw a clear plastic bag containing a “large quantity” of methamphetamine out of the driver’s side window and continued driving until eventually stopping.

Deputies located more methamphetamine in the driver’s floorboard area, the driver’s seat, and on the driver’s door of the vehicle, the ECSO said. Deputies also located marijuana and drug paraphernalia inside the vehicle.

    It just goes to show dealing dope in escambia county is easy and if you get caught with a lot it’s only 18 months !!! This judge should be removed from the bench asap. I guess it’s not what you know it’s who you know!!! This is sickening to see crap like this play out !!!

    He should have gotten 18 months for driving without a licenses, 3rd arrest, and the fake tag. Plus, there is no way he had insurance. That alone was worth 18 months. Looking at Clerk of Court website and he has been in trouble continually since 1989 and the FDOC shows he was just released from Prison 2 years ago. This man is a habitual offender who will be right back at it in 15 months when he he is out early for good behavior.

    Unbelievable 18 months for all this and it was his third time .my son was just standing in someone’s yard and the same judge wanted to give him five years. Judge Robinson is not fair or I guess it’s who you know. Lucky he didn’t hurt someone

    18 months is nothing. He will be out by next Spring slinging dope again.
