SUBMITTED BY: EICHHORN, CAROLINE 1365 (AR15-15185) DID, KNOWING her DRIVERâS LICENSE OR DRIVING PRIVILEGE HAD BEEN CANCELLED, SUSPENDED OR REVOKED, DRIVE A MOTOR VEHICLE UPON THE HIGHWAYS OF THIS STATE WHILE SUCH LICENSE OR PRIVILEGE WAS CANCELLED, AFTER A PRIOR CONVICTION, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 322.34(2)(B). \tdid unlawfully and knowingly attach to a motor vehicle or mobile home, to-wit: license plate B2CS45, WHICH WAS not issued and assigned or lawfully transferred to such vehicle, in violation of Florida Statute 320.261. \t \tON 052815, AT APPROXIMATELY 1826 HOURS, I CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON A 2000 BRONZE HYUNDAI AT THE INTERSECTION OF ROOSEVELT BOULEVARD AND SOUTH TYLER STREET, IN BEVERLY HILLS, BECAUSE THE DRIVER WAS NOT WEARING HER SEATBELT. \t \tUPON MAKING CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER/DEFENDANT, MS DARLENE WEISGARBER, SHE IMMEDIATELY STATED THAT SHE DID NOT HAVE A VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE. AT THAT TIME, I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE HAD PROOF OF INSURANCE OR THE VEHICLE REGISTRATION, TO WHICH SHE ADVISED IT WAS IN THE GLOVE BOX. THE DEFENDANT ASKED ME SEVERAL TIMES TO NOT TAKE HER TO âJAIL' BECAUSE SHE HAD ALREADY BEEN ARRESTED FOR DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED DRIVER'S LICENSE. \t \tI RETURNED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE AND VERIFIED THROUGH TELETYPE THAT THE DEFENDANT DID NOT HAVE A VALID FLORIDA DRIVER'S LICENSE. I ALSO CONFIRMED THAT THE LICENSE PLATE ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE WAS AN UNREGISTERED LICENSE PLATE. AT THAT TIME, I APPROACHED THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE. \t \tI INFORMED THE DEFENDANT THAT SHE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST. THE DEFENDANT WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HER BACK AND ESCORTED TO THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. \t \tI ASKED THE DEFENDANT, POST MIRANDA, IF THE VEHICLE WAS LEGALLY REGISTERED IN HER NAME AND SHE STATED IT WAS NOT. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT SHE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE FROM A FRIEND OF HERS AND THE TITLE WAS LOCATED IN THE GLOVE BOX. AT THAT TIME, THE DEFENDANT GAVE CONSENT FOR ME TO OPEN THE GLOVE BOX AND LOCATE THE TITLE. I OBSERVED THE TITLE ONLY HAD THE SELLERS INFORMATION ON IT AND WAS NOT LEGALLY REGISTERED. \t \tTHE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED BY ADVANCE TOWING. \t \tTHE DEFENDANT WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. \t \tTHE DEFENDANT WAS ISSUED FLORIDA UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION, CITATION NUMBER A1P1MNP, FOR DRIVING WHILE LICENSE SUSPENDED (KNOWINGLY), FLORIDA UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION, CITATION NUMBER A1P1MOP, FOR ATTACHED LICENSE PLATE NOT ASSIGNED, AND WRITTEN WARNING, WARNING NUMBER 391681B, FOR DRIVING WITHOUT A SEATBELT. \t \tTHE DEFENDANTâS BOND WAS SET AT $1,500.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. \t \tNO FURTHER ACTION BY THIS DEPUTY. |
