| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: HUNTER, JEFFERY 0441 (AR08103480) DID KNOWINGLY AND WILLFULLY REFUSE TO ACCEPT AND SIGN A TRAFFIC SUMMONS, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 318.14(3). ON 052908 AT APPROXIMATELY 2055 HOURS, I WAS SOUTH BOUND ON NORTH LECANTO HIGHWAY IN THE AREA OF NORTH KENDRICK PATH WHEN I OBSERVED A TWO DOOR BLACK VEHICLE NORTH BOUND ON NORTH LECANTO HIGHWAY PASSING WHISPERING OAK LOOP AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED WHICH I VISUALLY ESTIMATED TO BE 65 MILES PER HOUR (MPH). I TRIGGERED MY REAR RADAR AND RECEIVED A CLEAR DOPPLER TONE, SPEED INDICATION OF 70 MPH. I COMPLETED A U-TURN AND CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE . THE VEHICLE STOPPED AT THE CORNER OF NORTH LECANTO HIGHWAY AND NORTH ROSS TERRACE. I MADE CONTACT with the DRIVER /DEFENDANT AND ASKED HIM FOR HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE, REGISTRATION, AND PROOF OF INSURANCE. HE PROVIDED HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE AND REGISTRATION. I INFORMED HIM THAT I HAD CLOCKED HIM AT 70 MPH IN A 45 MPH ZONE. HE STATED HE WAS DOING 49 MPH IN THE 45 MPH ZONE. HE DEMANDED TO SEE MY RADAR DISPLAY AND I TOLD HM I DID NOT HAVE TO SHOW IT TO HIM. I RETURNED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE AND COMPLETED A UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION (UTC) NUMBER 0624-EVY FOR SPEEDING. I THEN AGAIN APPROACHED THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE AND INFORMED HIM HE WAS BEING CITED FOR 70 MPH IN A 45 MPH ZONE WITH A FINE OF $213.50 PAYABLE WITHIN 30 DAYS TO THE CLERK OF COURT'S OFFICE. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO SIGN THE CITATION AND THE DEFENDANT STATED "NO, FUCK YOU. I WANT TO SEE YOUR SUPERVISOR." I TOLD THE DEFENDANT THAT REFUSAL TO SIGN A CITATION IS AN ARRESTABLE OFFENSE. THE DEFENDANT AGAIN STATED HE WISHED TO SEE MY SUPERVISOR. I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE WHERE I PUT THE TICKET HOLDER on the HOOD AND REQUESTED BACK-UP. I THEN APPROACHED THE VEHICLE. I DREW MY DUTY WEAPON, POINTED IT AT THE GROUND, AND COMMANDED THE DEFENDANT TO SHUT THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE OFF TO WHICH HE COMPLIED. I TOLD THE DEFENDANT TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER SEVERAL COMMANDS, HE COMPLIED. I HAD THE DEFENDANT PLACE HIS HANDS ON TOP OF HIS VEHICLE. I HOLSTERED MY WEAPON, PLACED HIM IN HANDCUFFS, AND ADVISED HIM HE WAS UNDER ARREST FOR FAILURE TO SIGN A TRAFFIC CITATION. THE SUBJECT WAS PLACED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
