| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: MULLINS, MARVIN 0493 (13-73142) (AR13-5881) DID UNLAWFULLY AND KNOWINGLY TAKE, OBTAIN OR USE OR ENDEAVOR TO TAKE, OBTAIN OR USE THE PROPERTY OF PUBLIX, TO WIT: CASH, CARRYING AWAY THE SAID MERCHANDISE, WITH INTENT TO TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY DEPRIVE, A MERCHANT, OF THE POSSESSION, USE, BENEFIT, OR FULL RETAIL VALUE OF SAID PROPERTY, SAID PROPERTY BEING OF A VALUE OF LESS THAN $300.00, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTES 812.015. ON 060213, I WAS DISPATCH TO 1420 NORTH US HIGHWAY 41, THE PUBLIX IN INVERNESS IN REFERENCE TO A PETIT THEFT WHERE A WHITE FEMALE, LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE DEFENDANT, MS ANNA KINARD, HAD ALREADY BEEN DETAINED. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT IN THE MANAGERâS OFFICE ALONG WITH DEPUTY SUNDBERG WHO READ HER MIRANDA WARNINGS VIA PRE-PRINTED CARD. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT SHE UNDERSTOOD HER RIGHTS AND ADVISED THAT SHE WOULD SPEAK WITH ME. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT ON 060113, SHE WAS AT PUBLIX IN THE PARKING LOT WITH THE CO-DEFENDANT, MR JAMES TIMMERMAN, LOOKING FOR CIGARETTE BUTTS. WHILE IN THE PARKING LOT, THE CO-DEFENDANT LOCATED A RECEIPT WHICH HE PICKED UP AND TOLD HER THAT HE WAS GOING INTO PUBLIX, TAKE ITEMS OFF OF THE SHELF MATCHING THE ITEMS ON THE RECEIPT THAT HE HAD FOUND AND RETURN THEM FOR CASH. WHEN THEY RETURNED ON 060213, THE DEFENDANT AND CO-DEFENDANT RETRIEVED A NEW YORK STRIP STAKE AND PUBLIX BRAND FROZEN YOGURT AND TOOK THEM TO THE CUSTOMER SERVICE COUNTER FOR A REFUND. THE REFUND WAS APPROVED IN THE AMOUNT OF $18.19 AND THE DEFENDANT AND CO-DEFENDANT EXITED PUBLIX. THE MANAGER REVIEWED THE ORIGINAL RECEIPT AND THE REFUND RECEIPT AND NOTICED THAT THE PRICE OF THE NEW YORK STRIP STEAK THE DEFENDANT RETURNED WAS NOT THE SAME PRICE AS THE ORIGINAL NEW YORK STRIP STEAK THAT HAD BEEN PURCHASED. THE MANAGER THEN FOLLOWED THE DEFENDANTS OUT AND ASKED THEM TO RETURN TO THE MANAGERâS OFFICE. THE DEFENDANT COMPLIED AND FOLLOWED THE MANAGER BACK IN AND AWAITED LAW ENFORCEMENT. THE DEFENDANT DID COMPLETE A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT WHICH WILL BE TURNED IN TO RECORDS. I ADVISED THE DEFENDANT THAT I WAS PLACING HER UNDER ARREST FOR RETAIL PETIT THEFT, SHE WAS HANDCUFFED, BEHIND HER BACK, (DOUBLE LOCKED), SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANTâS BOND WAS SET AT $500.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE FOR A SECOND OFFENSE OF RETAIL THEFT. |
