| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: NEAL, GARRETT 0676 (12-80315) (AR12-960) DID UNLAWFULLY HAVE IN HIS ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE POSSESSION A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE, TO WIT: 2 PLASTIC BAGGIES CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 36 GRAMS OF CANNABIS, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 893.13(6)(A). ON 043012, DETECTIVE BLAIR AND I WERE CONDUCTING TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT IN the AREA OF CRYSTAL RIVER UTILIZING AN UNMARKED AGENCY VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH LIGHTS AND SIRENS. WHILE TRAVELING EAST ON WEST GULF TO LAKE HIGHWAY, I OBSERVED A 2000 KIA 4-DOOR BEARING FLORIDA TAG ALGJ13 TRAVELING EASTBOUND IN FRONT OF ME AND I COULD CLEARLY SEE THAT THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER WAS NOT WEARING HIS SEATBELT. I INITIATED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THAT VEHICLE IN THE PARKING LOT OF MANATEE LANES AT 7715 WEST GULF TO LAKE HIGHWAY IN CRYSTAL RIVER. I MADE CONTACT WITH THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER WHILE DETECTIVE BLAIR MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER/DEFENDANT, MR EDWARD GARRY CLEMENT II. UPON MAKING CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT AND FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, I ASKED THEM BOTH IF THERE WERE ANY ILLEGAL NARCOTICS in the VEHICLE AND THE DEFENDANT SAID THAT HE HAD SOME CANNABIS in the CENTER CONSOLE. THE DEFENDANT AND THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER WERE ASKED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE AND A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE YIELDED TWO PLASTIC BAGGIES CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 36 GRAMS OF CANNABIS, WHICH I WAS ABLE TO IDENTIFY DUE TO MY TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE, THAT WAS LOCATED IN THE CENTER CONSOLE. A MULTI-COLORED GLASS PIPE WAS ALSO LOCATED in the CENTER CONSOLE with the CANNABIS. A SEARCH OF THE DEFENDANTâS PERSON REVEALED A PACK OF ROLLING PAPERS. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN READ HIS MIRANDA WARNINGS VIA PRE-PRINTED CARD BY DETECTIVE BLAIR AND THE DEFENDANT SAID THAT HE UNDERSTOOD HIS RIGHTS AND would SPEAK WITH DETECTIVE BLAIR. THE DEFENDANT ADMITTED OWNERSHIP OF THE CANNABIS and SAID THAT HE HAD RECENTLY PURCHASED AN OUNCE OF THE CANNABIS FOR $250.00 AND THE CANNABIS WAS FOR HIS PERSONAL USE. AT THAT TIME, THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR POSSESSION OF MORE THAN 20 GRAMS OF CANNABIS, HANDCUFFED IN FRONT OF HIS PERSON AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. DUE TO THE DEFENDANTâS COOPERATION HE WAS RELEASED ON HIS OWN RECOGNIZANCE. |
