McDavid Woman Facing Felony Meth Charge After Traffic Stop
September 24, 2025
A McDavid woman was arrested on felony drug charges after a traffic stop in Escambia County.
Jennifer Atrice Wiggins, 47, was stopped by an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputy on North W Street at Pensacola Boulevard after he observed a black Nissan SUV with a cracked windshield. A records check revealed the vehicle’s registered owner had an active warrant and a suspended driver’s license.
According to the arrest report, the deputy used a K9, Hura, to conduct a free-air sniff around the vehicle, which resulted in a positive alert. A subsequent search of the vehicle uncovered a clear plastic bag containing a crystal-like substance inside a flashlight in a purse on the driver’s side floorboard, according to deputies. The substance field-tested positive for methamphetamine, with a weight of 1.3 grams.
Wiggins was taken into custody and transported to the Escambia County Jail. She was given a bond of $2500 and a circuit court date of October 10, 2025.
Wiggins told authorities she had picked up a passenger from a casino in Atmore, Alabama, and was giving him a ride. She stated that she found the flashlight under her seat and did not know it contained narcotics, and she admitted that she had used meth for a couple of years but had not used narcotics for 7-9 months, the report states.
Wiggins was also cited for driving with a suspended license.
She remained in the Escambia County Jail on Wednesday with bond set at $2,500.

SMH.. thats a fact!! @jeff .. u can tell just in the eyes that she is beyond meth’d up
That’s methed up.
Bill T Meth is SUPER SUPER cheap which is why literally everyone who does hard drugs is switching to it. Cocaine/Crack is still around but you get way more product and a high that last hours or days versus just a couple minutes with other drugs. It’s becoming more open now with people doing it and people not really caring or just accepting that people are doing it. This is coming from a long time user that has been clean and sober for 5yrs thanks to prayer and a family that never gave up on me. I chose my family over the drug
@BillT you’re right! I asked someone once when they’ would stop the drugs. They responded, “When I die”. They were right. Drugs devastate families and people who take drugs definitely don’t care.
@Bill,
Search Northescambia.com for “theft”. People claim that drugs/drug addictions are victimless crimes, but there is always a victim.
My question is where do they get the money ti keep doing this expensive drug !!! I guess when you get hooked up on this you will do anything to get the drug lie cheat steal or kill whatever it takes !!!
Hurray for Hura. Like McGruff, taking a bite out of crime
