A Florida woman named Teryn Acri was arrested in January for trafficking methamphetamine. She was then released from jail after paying her bond. What was a "normal case" of alleged drug trafficking quickly turned into a bizarre incident. During a vehicle search, a Brevard County deputy found a bag filled with drugs. The bag was labeled "Definitely Not a Bag Full of Drugs." You can't make this stuff up.

On January 18, Deputy Lexi Gordon and her K9 partner Aurora stopped a vehicle while on patrol, according to a Brevard County Sheriff's Office
statement written by Sheriff Wayne Ivey. Inside the vehicle, on the passenger's seat, was Teryn Acri. The vehicle's driver agreed to a vehicle search, which turned out to be a fatal mistake for Acri.While the driver said that there was nothing illegal on the vehicle, Gordon was quick to notice something that appeared to be, at least, weird. A tote bag with a weird inscription was in Acri's possession. The bag read: "Definitely Not a Bag Full of Drugs." To say that this caught Gordon's attention would be an understatement.
"The bag was filled with snacks," Ivey wrote in the statement. "Nah just kidding it was actually drugs, that's right, she actually had a bag with drugs in it that said on the side 'Definitely Not A Bag Full Of Drugs'!!"
Misleading Inscription
And, contrary to what the tote bag claimed, the bag was, in fact, full of drugs. According to Ivey, the bag was filled to the brim with methamphetamine, Narcan, needles, cut straws, and other drug-related items. This was certainly not a great look for Acri, who was previously arrested and charged with drug trafficking, drug possession with the intent to sell, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
It was no surprise, then, that Teryn Acri was once again arrested and jailed, currently with no bond.
"You know there is a quote that says "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results," Ivey wrote. "And folks let me tell you, this is absolute insanity that we just keep letting these criminals out of jail on ridiculous bonds so they can break more laws!!"
Sheriff Ivey implied that, previously, a judge overruled the "no-bond" given to Acri. However, he refused to go into detail, claiming it was a "story for a different day." He expressed, however, a commitment to the community of Brevard County. "We have zero tolerance for crime, especially when it comes to people putting poison out on our streets" Ivey concluded.
