Mother-daughter duo nabbed in drug bust 'methed up and found out,' Florida sheriff says

Florida law enforcement officers arrested a mother-and-daughter duo on several drug charges Saturday, joking on Facebook that the pair had "methed up."

"Well, folks, it's time for this week's episode of 'Methed Up and Found Out,'" Brevard County Sheriff's Office wrote in a Facebook post peppered with humor.

Deputy David Guzman stopped Michell Lee Cannon, 43, and Jazmine Lee Cannon, 22, in Port St. John for expired tags.

Deputy Guzman, assisted by Deputy Darien Fedro, observed drug paraphernalia in plain view in the pair's vehicle, the post says. A further search revealed a lock box near Michell Cannon's driver's seat which officers say contained a "clear sandwich bag with a crystal-like substance inside." Officers say they also found weighing scales and other drug paraphernalia in the car.

"Man, that's methed up," Deputies Guzman and Fedro said, according to the tongue-in-cheek account, after the 17.6 ounces of crystal-like substance tested positive for methamphetamine.

The officers say they also found "several used syringes," including one with a yellowish liquid that field-tested positive for fentanyl.

"Since we don't 'meth around' with drug dealers here in Brevard County," the BCSO's post continued, "Michell Cannon was transported to 'Ivey's Iron Bar Lodge.'"

"Ivey's Iron Bar Lodge," is a humorous reference to jail, with "Ivey" referring to Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey.

Michell Cannon was charged with two felonies, controlled substance trafficking and controlled substance possession, as well as two misdemeanors, driving with a suspended license, and drug paraphernalia possession, according to BCSO booking documents. She was held on a $34,000 bond. A court date for Michell Cannon's trafficking charge is set for July 27.

Jazmine Lee Cannon, Michell Cannon's daughter, was allegedly found to have "less than a gram of methamphetamine hidden in her bra and a used syringe in her pants." Jazmine Cannon was charged with felony methamphetamine possession and misdemeanor drug paraphernalia possession. Her bond was set at $2,500.

BCSO wrapped up their account of the Cannons' arrests by joking about the pair qualifying for the "family plan" at the jail, which gets them a "framed family booking photo."

"If you don't think we will lock your butt up for being a drug dealer in Brevard County ... just 'meth up and find out!!" Sheriff Wayne Ivey wrote.
