The Mercer University student convicted of violating local COVID-19 quarantine laws in the Cayman Islands was released from custody Friday, but her status as a Mercer student is not yet publicly known.
Skylar Mack, a sophomore on the pre-med track, traveled to the Cayman Islands over winter break to visit her boyfriend. She was required to quarantine for two weeks upon arriving on Nov. 27, as all visitors to the Cayman Islands are required to do.
Two days after arrival, Mack broke quarantine in order to watch her boyfriend compete in a jet ski competition, according to the Cayman Island Grand Court and multiple media reports.
