| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: MORTON, KEVIN 0551 (AR09112609) UNLAWFULLY ENDANGER THE SAFETY OF ANOTHER OR THEIR PROPERTY WHILE INTOXICATED OR DID WHILE INTOXICATED OR DRINKING AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE IN A PUBLIC PLACE CAUSE A PUBLIC DISTURBANCE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE NUMBER 856.011. ON 123009 I RESPONDED TO 6555 SOUTH GILBERT TERRACE IN LECANTO, FLORIDA WHERE UPON ARRIVAL I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT, WHO CAME STUMBLING OUT OF THE RESIDENCE. AS THE DEFENDANT CAME DOWN THE STAIRS SHE ALMOST FELL DOWN ON THE GROUND AND BEGAN YELLING AT ME AS I EXITED MY VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT WAS STATING, "DON'T BELIEVE ANYTHING SHE TELLS YOU, SHE IS A LYING BITCH." THE DEFENDANT WAS APPARENTLY REFERRING TO THE COMPLAINANT/VICTIM WHO WAS CURRENTLY EXITING THE RESIDENCE AS WELL AND REMAINED ON THE FRONT PORCH LEANING ON THE HANDRAIL. THE VICTIM STATED, FROM THE FRONT PORCH, THAT I SHOULD BE CAREFUL IN REFERENCE TO THE DEFENDANT, AND ADVISED THE DEFENDANT HAD BEEN TEARING UP THE VICTIM'S RESIDENCE BY PUNCHING HOLES IN THE WALLS, PUNCHING THE DOOR AND HAD TORN THE TELEPHONES FROM THE WALL. THE DEFENDANT WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF ME AND REPEATEDLY TRIED TO REACH OUT TO TOUCH ME AS SHE WAS LOSING HER BALANCE AND APPARENTLY TRYING TO PUT A BELT ON HER PANTS. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHAT SHE WAS DOING, AND SHE REPLIED THAT SHE WAS TRYING TO PUT ON HER BELT. SHE THEN PULLED HER SHIRT UP OVER HER HEAD, APPARENTLY TO SHOW ME WHAT SHE WAS DOING WITH HER BELT. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHAT HAD BEEN GOING ON, TO WHICH SHE REPLIED SHE DID NOT WANT TO GO TO JAIL AND JUST WANTED TO GO HOME TO ARROWHEAD. DEPUTY DAVIS ARRIVED AT THAT TIME. AT THAT TIME I MADE CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD BEEN STAYING AT HER RESIDENCE WITH HER BOYFRIEND, IN ORDER TO HELP THE VICTIM TAKE CARE OF THE RESIDENCE AND THE VICTIM'S 76 YEAR OLD MOTHER, WHO IS DISABLED. THE VICTIM INFORMED ME THAT THE DEFENDANT AND HER BOYFRIEND HAD APPARENTLY BROKEN UP EARLIER THIS EVENING, AT WHICH TIME THE DEFENDANT BEGAN DRINKING HEAVILY. THE VICTIM STATED THAT SHE WAS ASKING THE DEFENDANT TO PLEASE CALM DOWN, AND THE DEFENDANT WAS RAMPAGING THROUGH THE HOUSE, YELLING AND SCREAMING AND OUT OF CONTROL AND STARTED TO PUNCH HOLES IN THE WALLS. THE VICTIM SAID AT THAT TIME SHE CALLED 911, AND THE DEFENDANT YANKED THE TELEPHONE FROM THE WALL. THE VICTIM STATED THAT DURING THIS INCIDENT THE DEFENDANT DID HIT THE VICTIM IN THE STOMACH WITH HER ARM. THE VICTIM STATED SHE FELT THIS WAS ACTUALLY AN ACCIDENT AND NOT AN INTENTIONAL ACT. THE VICTIM STATED THAT SHE DID NOT FEEL SAFE AND WAS ALSO IN FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF HER MOTHER. AT THAT TIME I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT AGAIN, WHO WAS YELLING AT DEPUTY DAVIS AND YELLING TOWARD THE RESIDENCE. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE HAD A PLACE TO GO, TO WHICH SHE REPLIED, NO. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF THERE WAS SOMEONE WHO COULD COME TO GET HER, AND THE DEFENDANT STATED HER BROTHER COULD COME TO GET HER. I ASKED WHAT HIS NAME WAS AND HOW WE COULD MAKE CONTACT WITH HIM, AND SHE REPLIED SHE DID NOT KNOW. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE HAD MONEY FOR CAB FARE AND SHE SCREAMED, NO, AND ADDED THAT SHE WAS "A BROKE ASSED BITCH." THE DEFENDANT WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL AND FLAILING HER BODY UP AGAINST MY PATROL VEHICLE AND SCREAMING SHE DID NOT WANT TO GO TO JAIL. AT THAT TIME THE VICTIM WALKED OVER AND ATTEMPTED TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE DEFENDANT BY SAYING SHE WOULD ALLOW HER TO STAY IF SHE WOULD GO TO BED AND STAY CALM. THE DEFENDANT BEGAN SCREAMING AT THE VICTIM, FLAILING HER ARMS TOWARD THE VICTIM AND IN THE AIR, AND SCREAMING AT THE VICTIM. AT THAT POINT, MYSELF AND DEPUTY DAVIS RESTRAINED THE DEFENDANT IN HANDCUFFS (DOUBLE LOCKED). THE DEFENDANT DID LEAN OVER AND BANG HER HEAD TWICE ON THE HOOD OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. DEPUTY DAVIS AND I WERE ABLE TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT AND PLACE HER IN MY PATROL VEHICLE AND THEN TRANSPORTED HER TO CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY, WHERE SHE WAS BOOKED AND PROCESSED WITH BOND AT $150.00. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
