| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: MCLAUGHLIN, ALLISON 0507 (AR09111136) DID UNLAWFULLY AND KNOWINGLY CULTIVATE EIGHT (8) MARIJUANA PLANTS, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 893.13(1)(A)(2). ON 092409 AT APPROXIMATELY 1400 HOURS, THIS DEPUTY RECEIVED A CALL FROM DETECTIVE CONLEY WHO HAD ADVISED THAT HE HAD RECEIVED AN ANONYMOUS COMPLAINT ADVISING THAT THERE WERE MARIJUANA PLANTS GROWING ON A WOODEN LOT LOCATED ON SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE. DETECTIVE CONLEY CONTINUED TO ADVISE THAT THE ANONYMOUS COMPLAINANT ALSO STATED THAT THE MARIJUANA WAS POSSIBLY BEING GROWN BY ONE OF RESIDENTS WHO RESIDE AT 6090 SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE, WHICH IS THE CONNECTING PROPERTY TO THE NORTH OF THE WOODEN LOT. DETECTIVE CONLEY FURTHER ADVISED THAT HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE PROPERTY OWNER OF 6090 SOUTH PREMIER AVENUE WAS OWNED BY MR DOUGLAS RODRICK, AND THAT MR RODRICK'S GIRLFRIEND "GERRIE" WAS SUSPECTED OF GROWING THE MARIJUANA PLANTS. UPON CONDUCTING A CHECK ON THE CITRUS COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISERS WEBSITE, THIS DEPUTY WAS ABLE TO LOCATE THE OWNER TO THE WOODEN LOT, WHICH IS DIFFERENT OF THAT OF MR RODRICK WHO IS THE REGISTERED OWNER AT 6090 SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE. UPON DEPUTY CARRERAS AND MY ARRIVAL ON SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE, WE MET WITH DETECTIVE CONLEY, WHO WAS PARKED ON THE RIGHT-OF-WAY IN FRONT OF THE WOODED LOT WHERE THE SUSPECTED MARIJUANA PLANTS WERE LOCATED. AT THIS TIME, WE ENTERED THE WOODED LOT, AND IN WALKING IN A WESTERLY DIRECTION FOR APPROXIMATELY 50 YARDS, THIS DEPUTY HAD OBSERVED EIGHT POTTED PLANTS WHICH APPEARED TO BE MARIJUANA. BASED ON THIS DEPUTY'S TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE WITH MARIJUANA GROW OPERATIONS AND PLANTS, I WAS ABLE TO CONFIRM THAT THE POTTED PLANTS WERE IN FACT MARIJUANA PLANTS. IN TAKING FURTHER OBSERVATION OF THE AREA SURROUNDING THE POTTED PLANTS, THIS DEPUTY WAS ALSO ABLE TO OBSERVE A WELL TRAVELED TRAIL THAT LEAD FROM THE WOODED LOT, NORTH TO THE PROPERTY OF 6090 SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE. AT THIS TIME, DETECTIVE CONLEY AND I THEN RESPONDED TO 6090 SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE IN AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE HOMEOWNER. UPON OUR ARRIVAL, WE MADE CONTACT WITH MR DOUGLAS RODRICK AND MS GERRIE SISSON. BOTH MR RODRICK AND MS SISSON ADVISED THAT THEY CURRENTLY RESIDE AT 6090 SOUTH PREMIERE AVENUE AND HAVE DONE SO FOR QUITE SOME TIME. UPON ADVISING THE TWO PARTIES OF THE DISCOVERY, MS SISSON FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY ADVISED THAT THE MARIJUANA PLANTS WERE HERS. MS SISSON FURTHER STATED APPROXIMATELY SIX MONTHS AGO SHE HAD SOME MARIJUANA SEEDS AND WANTED TO SEE IF SHE COULD GROW THE MARIJUANA PLANTS TO HAVE FOR HER OWN PERSONAL USE. AT THIS TIME, MS SISSON WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR THE CULTIVATION OF CANNABIS. IN CONDUCTING A CHECK OF THE DEFENDANT'S CRIMINAL HISTORY, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT A SINGLE INCIDENT, NON-DRUG RELATED, WAS CHARGED AGAINST HER. FURTHER, THE DEFENDANT CURRENTLY RESIDES AND IS EMPLOYED IN CITRUS COUNTY. FURTHERMORE, THE DEFENDANT WAS VERY COOPERATIVE IN THIS INVESTIGATION AND WILL BE RELEASED ON HER OWN RECOGNIZANCE. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
