| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: WARD, KELLIE 0725 (AR12-102) ON 022412 AT APPROXIMATELY 2107 HOURS, I OBSERVED A WHITE ISUZU SUV DRIVING SOUTHBOUND ON WEST TURKEY OAK DRIVE WITH NO TAG LIGHTS. I THEN POSITIONED MY PATROL VEHICLE BEHIND THE DEFENDANT’S VEHICLE AND ACTIVATED MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE AT WEST TURKEY OAK DRIVE AND NORTHEAST 5TH STREET. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER, MR CODY KNAPP, AND ASKED FOR HIS DRIVER’S LICENSE, PROOF OF INSURANCE AND REGISTRATION. I ADVISED HIM FOR THE REASON OF THE STOP. I THEN CALLED FOR A BACKUP DEPUTY TO RESPOND. I THEN RETURNED TO MY PATROL CAR AND RAN THE TAG AND THE DRIVER’S LICENSE TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE VALID. AT THAT TIME, I STARTED WRITING A WARNING FOR THE TAG LIGHT BEING OUT. CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO THEN ARRIVED ON SCENE AND DEPLOYED CANINE CONAN. DEPUTY VIGGIANO ADVISED ME THAT CANINE CONAN ALERTED TO THE PRESENCE OF NARCOTICS EMITTING FROM INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. AT THAT TIME, I ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND ADVISED HIM THE DOG HAD ALERTED TO THE PRESENCE OF NARCOTICS. CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO THEN CONDUCTED A PAT-DOWN SEARCH ON THE DEFENDANT AND ADVISED ME THAT HE FOUND TWO PARTIAL MARIJUANA CIGARETTES LOCATED IN THE DEFENDANT’S RIGHT, FRONT PANTS POCKET. CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO THEN CONDUCTED A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH WAS MET WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. I THEN READ THE DEFENDANT HIS MIRANDA RIGHTS FROM AN AGENCY PRE PRINTED CARD AND ASKED IF HE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO ME, TO WHICH HE STATED YES. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED ME THAT HE WAS AT A FRIEND’S HOUSE WORKING ON A VEHICLE AND THAT HIS FRIEND WAS SMOKING MARIJUANA. HE ADVISED ME HE MUST HAVE PICKED UP HIS FRIEND’S PARTIAL MARIJUANA CIGARETTES AND PLACED THEM IN HIS POCKET. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED HE DID NOT HAVE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION FOR ME. AT THAT TIME, I ADVISED THE DEFENDANT THAT HE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR POSSESSION OF MARIJUANA LESS THAN 20 GRAMS. THE DEFENDANT WAS ISSUED A NOTICE TO APPEAR CITATION, NUMBER 18982, WITH A MANDATORY COURT DATE OF 031512 AT 1300 HOURS. THE MARIJUANA WAS PACKAGED AND WEIGHED APPROXIMATELY ONE GRAM. THE MARIJUANA WAS LATER TURNED IN TO EVIDENCE. ALSO, THE DEFENDANT WAS ISSUED WARNING NUMBER 334534B, FOR NO TAG LIGHT. THE DEFENDANT WAS RELEASED ON SCENE. |
