Woman caught with marijuana in her underwear back behind bars after violating her probation

Samantha Cheyenne Baker

An Oakland Hills woman arrested last year after she was caught with marijuana in her underwear has landed back behind bars after violating her probation.

Samantha Cheyenne Baker, 24, was taken into custody Thursday morning at her home on a warrant charging her with violating her probation. She was booked without bond at the Sumter County Detention Center.

This past February, Baker had been riding as a passenger in a pickup truck pulling a trailer which was stopped for a defective brake light, according to an arrest report. The vehicle was pulled over at the Circle K at 1527 Buenos Aires Blvd. in The Villages. It was determined that Baker was wanted on a Lake County warrant charging her with marijuana possession. When she arrived for processing at the Sumter County Detention Center, Baker admitted she had marijuana concealed in her underwear.

Baker also appeared Dec. 26 in Sumter County Court and entered a plea of no contest to a charge of driving while license suspended. She was placed on six months probation.
