On May 3, 2024, during security operations at SOL FEST, an individual was arrested for drug possession following a tip-off to a deputy from the Holmes County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO).
The deputy was informed that a staff member was exhibiting signs of narcotics influence and subsequently made contact with Eric Collier from Tampa.
Collier admitted to the deputy that he had been given ketamine by a friend. He voluntarily surrendered the substance and disclosed the presence of more drugs in his cabin.
Upon investigation, the deputy conducted a consensual search of Collier’s cabin, where additional ketamine, marijuana, and THC gummies were discovered.
As a result, Eric Collier was arrested and charged with possession of ketamine, possession of a controlled substance, possession of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
