Fredericksburg Fugitive Located In MD, Extradited To VA

FREDERICKSBURG, VA — A Fredericksburg woman who was wanted by the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office on multiple charges, including possession of controlled substances, was located recently in Maryland, according to authorities.

After being extradited back to Virginia, Destiny Coleman was taken to the Rappahannock Regional Jail, where she was held without bond, according to the sheriff’s office.

During a traffic stop in south Stafford last November, a sheriff’s deputy found that Coleman was in possession of numerous controlled substances, according to the sheriff’s office.

On Nov. 29, 2024, Coleman appeared in Stafford General District Court on a felony charge of possession with the intent to distribute controlled substances, and she returned to court on Dec. 2, 2024 for a bail hearing.

On Dec. 10, 2024, Coleman skipped an arraignment hearing in district court and the judge issued an arrest warrant for failing to appear, according to court records.

Coleman also did not show up for a Jan. 30 hearing in Stafford County Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court in connection to a misdemeanor charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, according to court records. That charge stems from a Sept. 29, 2024 arrest, which is unrelated to the possession charge.
