A St. Joe teen charged after an incident involving the death of his baby waived his preliminary hearing Friday.

Franklin Skeen, 17, is charged with possession of a controlled substance. Police say he and the mother tested positive for marijuana and benzodiazepines, according to court documents. Police seized what officials called “Xanax bars” from the couple’s home.

On the day of his arrest, authorities say Skeen cursed and threatened officers as he pushed his way back into the house, emerging later with what turned out to be a bb gun.

Skeen’s baby died on June 1, allegedly from “overlay” from co-sleeping with the parents. The mother, Kyla Watson is charged with child endangerment. Watson was freed on $15,000 bail earlier this week. She’s scheduled for Circuit Court arraignment August 10.

Bail was denied for Skeen, and on Friday Associate Circuit Judge Keith Marquart denied a motion to set bail in the case. Marquart ruled earlier that Skeen was a danger to the community, after learning of the threats to police, as well as firearms and drugs found in the house. Officials say the crib may never have been used, but in it they found an AK-47.

Skeen waived his right to a preliminary hearing in the case. Marquart scheduled Circuit Court arraignment for the defendant July 20 before Judge Daniel Kellogg.
