| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: ALEXANDER, DAWN 0561 (AR11122120) DID KNOWINGLY ATTACH TO ANY MOTOR VEHICLE OR MOBILE HOME ANY REGISTRATION LICENSE PLATE, OR WHO KNOWINGLY ATTACHES ANY VALIDATION STICKER OR MOBILE HOME STICKER TO A REGISTRATION LICENSE PLATE, WHICH PLATE OR STICKER WAS NOT ISSUED AND ASSIGNED OR LAWFULLY TRANSFERRED TO SUCH VEHICLE, IS IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 320.261, TWO COUNTS. ON 080711, I WAS CONDUCTING TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT IN THE AREA OF HIGHWAY 19 BY THE CRYSTAL RIVER MALL WHEN I OBSERVED A BOAT TRAILER GO BY AND I DID NOT SEE A DECAL ON IT. I RAN THE GEORGIA TAG NUMBER THAT WAS ALZ4941. THE COMPUTER ADVISED THAT, THAT TAG SHOULD NOT BE ON A TRAILER AND THAT IT SHOULD BE ON A 1995 FORD WHITE IN COLOR. I INITIALED A TRAFFIC STOP. I APPROACHED THE DRIVER AND ASKED HIM FOR HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE AND REGISTRATION FOR THE TRUCK AND TRAILER. HE HANDED ME HIS GEORGIA DRIVER'S LICENSE WITH THE NAME OF JIMMY CHARLES COCHRAN. HE STATED HE DID NOT HAVE THE REGISTRATION FOR THE TRUCK OR TRAILER. I WROTE DOWN THE REGISTERED TAG THAT WAS ON THE TRUCK, WHICH WAS GEORGIA 78874AA. I THEN WENT BACK TO MY PATROL VEHICLE AND RAN THAT GEORGIA TAG AND THAT TAG CAME BACK TO 1990 HOMEMADE TRAILER BEIGE IN COLOR. I THEN HAD TELETYPE RUN BOTH TAGS ALSO. TELETYPE FIRST RAN ALZ4941 AND THEY ADVISED IT CAME BACK TO 1995 FORD TRUCK WHITE IN COLOR WITH "VIN" 1FTEF14N5SNA66744 AND IT WAS REGISTERED TO DON SMITH OUT OF 463 GA HWY 216 CUTHBERT, GEORGIA 39840. THEY ALSO ADVISED THAT TAG WAS REPLACED BY GEORGIA TAG NUMBER BKS4768. THIS WAS ON A BOAT TRAILER THAT HAD THE BOAT REGISTRATION FOR GEORGIA TAG 6076BL. I THEN HAD TELETYPE DISPATCH RUN THE TAG THAT WAS ON 2000 FORD PICKUP TRUCK WITH "VIN" 1FTRX17L3YNA30150. THEY AGAIN ADVISED IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ON A 1990 HOMEMADE TRAILER BEIGE IN COLOR "VIN" NUMBER T075453. I ATTEMPTED TO RUN THE "VIN" NUMBER ON THE 2000 FORD TRUCK THAT MR COCHRAN WAS DRIVING AND IT DID NOT ADVISE A TAG NUMBER FOR IT. WHEN ASKED ABOUT BOTH TAGS MR COCHRAN ADVISED HE DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE TAGS WOULD BE SCREWED UP. HE STATED HE HAS HAD THESE TAGS FOR YEARS. I PLACED MR COCHRAN UNDER ARREST AND TRANSPORTED HIM TO THE CITRUS COUNTY JAIL. I ISSUED CITATION NUMBER 3533-GQF3 AND 3534-GQF4 FOR ATTACHED TAGS NOT ASSIGNED. HE WAS GIVEN A MANDATORY COURT APPEARANCE OF 082511 AT 1300 HOURS. I DID RELEASE HIM ON HIS OWN RECOGNIZANCE DUE TO HIS AGE AND HEALTH ISSUES. HIS VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY KNIGHTLY AUTO, ALONG WITH HIS BOAT TRAILER, TO 61 NE HIGHWAY 19 IN CRYSTAL RIVER. BOTH TAGS WERE SEIZED AND PLACED IN TO EVIDENCE.
