PUTNAM COUNTY, Fla. — Wendy Leigh Messer, a 58-year-old woman from Satsuma, was arrested Monday night after a food-related altercation that included allegations of battery and aggravated assault with a weapon.
She faces charges including battery, aggravated assault, and possession of cocaine following the incident at a residence in Putnam County.
Deputies responded to a report of an altercation at Messer’s home in Satsuma around 9:15 p.m. on Monday. One victim claimed that Messer threw a plate of collard greens at her and threatened to use a knife against her. The second victim reported fear when Messer approached her while holding a cast-iron skillet in a threatening manner.
The first victim stated that during the argument, Messer swung her hand close to her face, narrowly missing her nose, as outlined in the incident report by Deputy Austin Chewning.
When deputies arrested Messer, she reportedly reached for her pocket. Upon inquiry about illegal substances, she mentioned, “Maybe marijuana,” indicating possible drug possession.
A search revealed two glass smoking pipes with residue typically associated with crack cocaine, identified as drug paraphernalia by deputies. Furthermore, they discovered a vial containing a white rock-like substance that tested positive for cocaine.
Messer denied ownership of the jeans she was wearing, suggesting that she had been set up.
Messer was booked into Putnam County Jail at 1:12 a.m. on Tuesday

Laz?
That’s a rough looking 58.
58? Yikes 😳
Just had her hair done. Got the fancy doo.
I was gonna say...
Well I think that the GOOD NEWS 📰📰📰 is that
we may have finally, FINALLY found a wife for Laz.
She’s a feisty one Laz.
She should face capital punishment for wasting collards.
You venture twenty miles inland of Florida’s coast and things can get both dolorously boring and suddenly interesting. Ask me about my kin’s hometown of Lee.
Yep, She’ll settle him right down alright.
Old school Breck girl.
I bet she’ll tell you in her bag-of-broken-glass voice that she was quite the looker when she was a bit younger... :P
I think so! 😃😁😂🤣🤣🤣
I was thinking that she was more like 78. Put down the smokes, honey.
When you have three women and only two crack pipes, along with a plate of collard greens, you know trouble can’t be far behind.
I’ve been saying for a while, Florida Man is quickly being replaced by Florida Women...
Yeah, you try that with a pineapple down your windpipe.

What gorgeous thick hair on an old woman!
“That’s not mine.”
I know!
I am jealous of her hair!
It’s gorgeous!
