| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: EMRICK, AL 0104 (AR11122763) THE DEFENDANT did knowingly give false information to a law enforcement officer, to-wit: DEPUTY A EMRICK AND DEPUTY J MACIAS, concerning the alleged commission of a crime, to-wit: HOME INVASION/BURGLARY, in violation of Florida Statute 837.05(1) ON 091511, I WAS DISPATCHED TO A REPORT OF A BURGLARY/HOMES INVASION AT 3267 EAST SCOFIELD STREET IN INVERNESS. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT, MR JIM ED SCHEIDER, WHO WAS SITTING ON HIS FRONT PORCH, BLEEDING FROM A LACERATION ON HIS LEFT FOREARM. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE NEEDED EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES WHICH HE REFUSED. I TOLD HIM TO APPLY PRESSURE TO HIS WOUND, AT WHICH TIME I TOOK INFORMATION FROM HIM ABOUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED. HE STATED AN INDIVIDUAL KNOCKED ON HIS FRONT DOOR AND WHEN HE ANSWERED THE INDIVIDUAL PUSHED THE DOOR IN AND CUT HIS ARM AND HIT HIM IN THE HEAD WITH AN UNKNOWN OBJECT. HE STATED THE INDIVIDUAL WAS ASKING FOR PICTURES AND RANSACKED THE HOUSE. HE STATED THE INDIVIDUAL LEFT AND FLED IN A MAROON PICKUP TRUCK. AFTER DEPUTY EMRICK, DETECTIVE CONLEY, SERGEANT FISCHER AND I SEARCHED THE HOUSE, WE APPROACHED THE DEFENDANT AND ASKED IF THIS REALLY HAPPENED. DEPUTY EMRICK TOLD THE DEFENDANT THAT IF THIS WAS truly A HOME INVASION CASE, THIS AGENCY WOULD WORK THE CASE BUT IF THIS WAS A LIE, NOW WOULD BE THE TIME TO TELL THE TRUTH, BEFORE MAN HOURS START ADDING UP. THE DEFENDANT ASKED IF WE ALL COULD SPEAK ELSEWHERE. HE STATED THE INDIVIDUAL WHO ATTACKED HIM WAS THE BOYFRIEND OF A GIRL HE WAS HAVING SEX WITH. THE DEFENDANT DID NOT WANT HIS OWN GIRLFRIEND TO FIND OUT, SO HE MADE UP THIS STORY. THE DEFENDANT PROVIDED US WITH THE NAME OF THE GIRL HE WAS HAVING SEX WITH, MS LORI CAMPBELL, WHO LIVED ON HERSHEY STREET IN HERNANDO. DEPUTY EMRICK AND I WERE UNABLE TO LOCATE THIS NAME USING MANY DATABASES. WE RETURNED TO 3267 EAST SCOFIELD STREET AND ASKED THE DEFENDANT ABOUT THE NAME LORI CAMPBELL BECAUSE WE WERE UNABLE TO FIND IT. THE DEFENDANT STATED HE HAD ONLY HAD SEX WITH HER ONE TIME, IN HER CAR, AND DID NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHERE SHE LIVED. HE THEN STATED HE TALKED TO HER ON 'FACEBOOK' AND SHOWED US HER PROFILE. THE INDIVIDUAL THE DEFENDANT SHOWED US ON 'FACEBOOK' WAS NOT LORI CAMPBELL BUT WAS LAURA ESPINOSA. THE DEFENDANT STATED IT MIGHT BE LAURA CAMPBELL AND NOT LORI AND THAT LORI CAMPBELL AND LAURA ESPINOSA WERE SISTERS. DEPUTY EMRICK AND I RETURNED TO OUR PATROL VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTED TO SEARCH FOR A LAURA CAMPBELL WHICH WAS MET WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO EXIT HIS HOME AND TOLD HIM TO TELL THE TRUTH BECAUSE THERE WERE TOO MANY HOLES IN HIS STORY. THE DEFENDANT THEN ADMITTED THAT THE ENTIRE CALL WAS A LIE AND THAT HE WAS JUST CONCERNED HIS OWN GIRLFRIEND WOULD NOT FIND OUT HE WAS CHEATING ON HER. ONCE THE DEFENDANT ADMITTED TO MAKING A FALSE POLICE REPORT, HE WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST. HE WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HIS BACK, SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR FURTHER PROCESSING. UPON ARRIVAL, THE DEFENDANT WAS QUESTIONED AGAIN AND HE RETURNED TO HIS ORIGINAL STORY ABOUT HIS GIRLFRIEND'S BOYFRIEND PUSHING HIS WAY INTO THE HOUSE AND CUTTING HIM. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN BOOKED AND HELD IN LIEU OF $500.00 BOND, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE BOND SCHEDULE.
