A TRANE AIR-CONDITIONER AT A CHURCH IN CRYSTAL RIVER WAS REPORTED STOLEN. THE UNIT WAS AN OLDER FIVE TON UNIT AND THE COILS IN THE UNIT ARE ALUMINUM. IT WAS DISCOVERED SUSPECT/DEFENDANT, MS DIANE LATIF, HAD TURNED IN ALUMINUM AIR-CONDITIONING COILS ON 022812. THE COILS WERE CONSISTENT WITH COILS FROM A FIVE TON AIR-CONDITIONING UNIT. ON 030112, I RESPONDED TO THE ADDRESS MS LATIF LISTED FOR HER ON THE FLORIDA SECONDARY METALS RECYCLER PURCHASE TRANSACTION FORM (NUMBER 202795). UPON ARRIVAL, I WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE MS LATIF AT 1259 SOUTH PALM AVENUE IN HOMOSASSA. THE NEIGHBOR ADVISED MS LATIF HAS NOT LIVED AT THIS ADDRESS FOR AT LEAST TWO YEARS. ON 030812, I LOCATED MS LATIF AT 927 NE 7TH AVENUE, APARTMENT C, IN CRYSTAL RIVER. I ADVISED HER WHO I WAS AND WHY I WAS THERE. I ASKED MS LATIF WHERE SHE GOT THE AIR-CONDITIONING COILS SHE TURNED IN ON 022812 AND SHE ADVISED SHE DID NOT WANT TO GET HER “FRIEND” IN TROUBLE. I ASKED HER WHY HER FRIEND WOULD BE IN TROUBLE AND SHE JUST SHRUGGED. I ADVISED HER SHE HAD COMMITTED A CRIME BY NOT PUTTING HER CORRECT ADDRESS ON THE TRANSACTION FORM. SHE STATED THAT SHE DID NOT THINK IT WAS THAT BIG OF A DEAL TO PUT HER CURRENT ADDRESS DOWN. I ASKED MS LATIF HOW MANY TIMES SHE HAD TURNED IN ITEMS FOR HER “FRIEND” AND SHE ADVISED ONLY A FEW TIMES. I PROVIDED MS LATIF WITH MY AGENCY CARD AND ADVISED HER TO CALL ME WITH ANY FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT HER “FRIEND”. AS I WAS LEAVING MS LATIF’S RESIDENCE TO RESPOND TO THE RECYCLERS, I NOTICED AN AIR-CONDITIONER DISMANTLED IN THE APARTMENT COMPLEX NEXT DOOR TO MS LATIF. I INSPECTED THE APARTMENTS AND DISCOVERED ALL THE AIR-CONDITIONING UNITS COPPER PIPES AND WIRE FROM INSIDE THE APARTMENTS HAD BEEN STRIPPED. THE COMPLEX IS CURRENTLY IN FORECLOSURE AND THERE IS ONLY ONE OCCUPANT IN ONE OF THE RESIDENCES. I RETURNED TO MS LATIF’S RESIDENCE AND ASKED HER ABOUT THE COMPLEX NEXT TO HER BUILDING. SHE STATED SHE KNEW IT WAS EMPTY AND I ASKED HER IF HER FRIEND HAD POSSIBLY GOTTEN THE SCRAP METAL THAT SHE TURNED IN FROM THE APARTMENT COMPLEX. SHE STATED SHE WAS NOT SURE. I ASKED MS LATIF TO DEFINE HER DEFINITION OF A “FEW TIMES” AND SHE STATED ABOUT FOUR. ON 030912, I RESPONDED TO THE CRYSTAL RIVER METAL RECYCLERS AND ASKED TO SEE ALL OF MS LATIF’S TRANSACTIONS. IT WAS DISCOVERED MS LATIF HAD COMPLETED 11 TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN 012412 AND 030712. ALL OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONSISTED OF COPPER PIPES, WIRE, AND AIR-CONDITIONER COILS.
