TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - A Tallahassee woman who was out on bond for selling meth last week has again been arrested, this time for trafficking large amounts of meth.
The Leon County Sheriff’s S.P.I.D.E.R. Unit had arrested Rebecca Archer on Dec. 15, for multiple drug related charges. She bonded out on those charges.
But on Dec. 26, 2018, S.P.I.D.E.R., along with the assistance of Air-1 and Deputy K-9 Wilmot, located Rebecca and arrested her again, for violation of probation.
During the arrest, Rebecca was found to be in possession of 22 grams of crystal methamphetamine and a loaded .380 semi-automatic firearm.
Her charges were then updated to include trafficking methamphetamine, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and violation of probation.
Archer's new bond has been set at $40,000 for the drug charges. No bond has been set for the violation of probation charge.
