| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: ANSTEAD, LAURA 0459 (AR07004092) ON 072407 AT APPROXIMATELY 1900 HOURS, I RESPONDED TO FORT ISLAND GULF BEACH IN REFERENCE TO AN AGENCY ASSIST FOR EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS). I WAS ADVISED BY DISPATCH THAT THERE WAS A WHITE FEMALE WHO WAS POSSIBLY INTOXICATED AND WAS HAVING DIFFICULTY BREATHING. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH MEDIC UNIT THREE, WHO WAS ALREADY ON SCENE AND ADVISED THE WHITE FEMALE WAS INSIDE THE AMBULANCE AND WAS BREATHING NORMAL. MEDIC THREE ADVISED THAT THE FEMALE WAS EXTREMELY INTOXICATED AND HAD BEEN LYING ON THE GROUND BETWEEN TWO VEHICLES THAT WERE PARKED AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE BEACH/PICNIC AREA. THEY ADVISED THAT THE FEMALE SUBJECT HAD TOLD THEM THAT SHE HAD DRIVEN HER TRUCK TO THE PARK AND THEN SHE BEGAN BABBLING. MEDIC THREE REQUESTED THAT I RETRIEVE THE FEMALE'S IDENTIFICATION OUT OF HER VEHICLE SO THAT HE WOULD IDENTIFY HER DUE TO THE FACT THAT SHE COULD NOT ADVISE WHO SHE WAS. I OBSERVED THE FEMALE'S GOLD FORD RANGER, BEARING TAG NUMBER, I40JFS PARKED CROOKED IN A PARKING SPACE NEAR THE ENTRANCE TO THE BEACH WHERE SHE WAS SEEN LAYING ON THE GROUND. THE KEYS WERE INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WAS DOWN. AS I LOOKED INSIDE THE VEHICLE IN AN ATTEMPT TO LOCATE THE FEMALE'S PURSE I OBSERVED A LOT OF CLOTHING ON THE PASSENGER FLOORBOARD AND IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I ALSO OBSERVED THE FEMALE'S FLORIDA DRIVER'S LICENSE ON THE CENTER CONSOLE. I THEN OPENED THE DOOR TO RETRIEVE HER DRIVER'S LICENSE, AT WHICH TIME, I OBSERVED A 1.75 LITER BOTTLE OF SMIRNOFF TRIPLE DISTILLED PREMIUM VODKA LAYING ON TOP OF THE PILE OF CLOTHING ON THE FLOORBOARD. THE BOTTLE WAS OVER THREE QUARTERS EMPTY AND EASILY AT REACH OF THE DRIVER DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF CLOTHING LYING ON THE FLOOR. THE FEMALE'S DRIVER'S LICENSE IDENTIFIED HER AS THE DEFENDANT, MS ELIZABETH A CONTRERAS AND WAS TURNED OVER TO THE MEDIC UNIT ON SCENE. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINANT, WHO ADVISED THAT THE DEFENDANT WAS LYING ON THE GROUND AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE BEACH YELLING AT PEOPLE AND SOBBING LOUDLY. THE COMPLAINANT ADVISED THAT HER THREE CHILDREN, WHOM SHE PREFERRED NOT TO GET INVOLVED, HAD GONE TO HER VAN WHICH WAS PARKED NEXT TO THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE. THE COMPLAINANT ADVISED THAT WHEN HER THREE CHILDREN WENT TO THE VAN THE DEFENDANT FRIGHTENED THEM AND BEGAN SCREAMING "CALL 9-1-1 I HAVE AIDS", AT WHICH TIME, THE CHILDREN RAN TO HER AND TOLD HER WHAT HAD HAPPENED. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT ON 072307 I HAD RECEIVED A CALL FOR SERVICE AT THE FORT ISLAND GULF BEACH IN REFERENCE TO A DRUNKEN WHITE FEMALE LAYING ON THE GROUND AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE BATHROOMS ALSO YELLING AT PEOPLE AND SCREAMING THAT SHE HAD AIDS. WHEN I RESPONDED TO THE BEACH I WAS UNABLE TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE FEMALE DUE TO THE TIME LAPSE AND CALLS FOR SERVICE. THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT WAS MADE PRIOR TO ME RESPONDING TO WORK AT 1800 HOURS. THE DEFENDANT WAS TRANSPORTED TO SEVEN RIVERS HOSPITAL PRIOR TO BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST AND WAS TREATED FOR HER LEVEL OF INTOXICATION. SEVEN RIVERS HOSPITAL MADE CONTACT WITH ME WHEN THE DEFENDANT WAS READY TO BE RELEASED. AT THAT TIME, I RESPONDED TO THE HOSPITAL AND TOOK THE DEFENDANT INTO CUSTODY, TO WHICH SHE PLACED HER UNDER ARREST. THE DEFENDANT WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE-LOCKED) BEHIND HER BACK, SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT $250.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. PRIOR TO BEING TAKEN INTO CUSTODY THE DEFENDANT DID ADVISE THAT SHE HAD BEEN AT THE BEACH BOTH DAYS AND DID NOT REMEMBER VERY MUCH DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL SHE HAD CONSUMED. THE PRACTITIONER WAS ABLE TO ADVISE THAT AT 2100 HOURS, WHEN HE RAN THE DEFENDANT'S BLOOD WORK HER BLOOD ALCOHOL WAS AT .348. THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE WAS TOWED FORM THE SCENE BY WESTSIDE TOWING AT APPROXIMATELY 1800 HOURS. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
