Deputies closed a drug house and arrested three local habitual offenders April 12 after an undercover operation.
"This is a reminder to drug dealers that Flagler County is not the place to bring drug or sell drugs. We will not tolerate it, and we will find you and put you behind bars, where you belong."
— RICK STALY, Flagler County sheriff
The Flagler County Sheriff's Office's Special Investigations Unit, with the assistance of the FCSO SWAT team and Putnam County Sheriff's Office SWAT team, raided the drug house at 2345 Blueberry Street in Bunnell early in the morning, arresting the suspects and seizing fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia.
Of the eight adults located inside the residence, deputies arrested 40-year-old James Donaldson, 37-year-old Cheyenne Donaldson and 28-year-old Haley Scott for multiple narcotics charges.
“I’m proud of our team for their efforts investigating this residence,” Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly said. “Here we have three poison peddlers well-known in the Mondex community who thought they could get away with continuing to break the law. This is a reminder to drug dealers that Flagler County is not the place to bring drug or sell drugs. We will not tolerate it, and we will find you and put you behind bars, where you belong. We really appreciate the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team for their assistance. This was a large property with multiple structures that had to be secured quickly for our safety.”
The Donaldsons both have a criminal history, dating back to 2011. James Donaldson has previously been charged with Actual Constructive Possession of a Synthetic Cannabinoid, Carrying a Concealed Firearm, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia and Possession of Methamphetamine. Cheyenne Donaldson has previously been charged with Contempt of Court, Violation of Probation, Failure to Appear and Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon. Scott’s criminal history dates back to 2017 for Driving While License Suspended/Revoked and Possession of a Controlled Substance without Prescription.
The three subjects are being held at the county jail. James
Donaldson is facing charges of Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia and is being held on a $3,000 bond, while Cheyenne Donaldson is facing charges of Possession of Fentanyl, Possession of Heroin, Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia and being held on $8,000 bond.
