I MADE CONTACT WITH DEPUTY VENTIMIGLIA. SHE ADVISED SHE MET WITH THE MANAGER OF WALGREENS, MS ASHLEY SUMLIN, AT THE PHARMACY DRIVE-THRU. THE MANAGER ADVISED A WHITE FEMALE, LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE DEFENDANT, MS DENISE WERY, CAME INTO THE STORE AND ATTEMPTED TO PURCHASE SUDAFED BUT COULD NOT PROVIDE A DRIVER'S LICENSE. MS SUMLIN FOLLOWED THE FEMALE OUTSIDE. K-9 DEPUTY BEHNEN ALSO ARRIVED ON SCENE. HE WALKED CANINE JERRY LEE AROUND THE VEHICLE AND K-9 DEPUTY BEHNEN ADVISED THE CANINE ALERTED. AT THAT TIME, ALL PARTIES WERE REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE AND SEPARATED. WHILE CONDUCTING A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE, K-9 DEPUTY BEHNEN LOCATED A BLACK BAG, WHICH THE DEFENDANT CLAIMED BELONGED TO HER. INSIDE THE SAID BAG THERE WAS A SMALL ROUND GREEN PLASTIC CONTAINER WITH A SMALL WET COTTON BALL INSIDE OF IT. DETECTIVE STEVE SMITH WAS NOTIFIED AND RESPONDED. DETECTIVE SMITH TESTED THE SMALL WHITE PIECE OF COTTON FOR METHAMPHETAMINE, IN WHICH IT DID TEST POSITIVE FOR METHAMPHETAMINE. ALSO LOCATED IN THE VEHICLE WAS COLEMAN FUEL, PLASTIC ZIPLOC BAGGIES CONTAINING LYE AND LITHIUM BATTERIES, WHICH ARE COMMONLY USED FOR THE MANUFACTURING OF METH. THE DEFENDANT WAS HANDCUFFED BEHIND THE BACK AND PLACED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. WHILE IN MY PATROL VEHICLE, THE DEFENDANT ASKED WHAT SHE WAS BEING CHARGED FOR AND I ADVISED HER SHE WAS BEING CHARGED WITH POSSESSION OF PARAPHERNALIA. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT THERE WAS NOT ANYMORE METHAMPHETAMINE BECAUSE SHE USED IT ALL. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING WHERE HER BOND WAS SET AT $500.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
