ON 030112 AT APPROXIMATELY 1050 HOURS, I RESPONDED TO 10474 EAST GOBBLER DRIVE, TO CONDUCT A FOLLOW UP INVESTIGATION. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH DEFENDANT TWO, MR JOHN DORE. MR DORE WAS IMMEDIATELY DETAINED AND HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HIS BACK. AT THAT TIME DETECTIVE CONLEY READ MR DORE HIS MIRANDA WARNING VIA PREPRINTED AGENCY CARD IN MY PRESENCE. MR DORE DID AGREE TO SPEAK WITH US WITHOUT THE PRESENCE OF AN ATTORNEY. UPON QUESTIONING MR DORE ABOUT THE BOAT LIFT DAVITS THAT WERE TAKEN FROM 934 SOUTH BUNTING WAY, MR DORE TOLD US THAT HE RECEIVED A TELEPHONE CALL FROM DEFENDANT ONE, MR JESSE PRIVE, AND MR PRIVE TOLD HIM THAT THE OWNER OF THE RESIDENCE GAVE HIM PERMISSION TO TAKE THE BOAT LIFT FOR SCRAP. MR DORE STATED THAT HE WAS UNDER THE UNDERSTANDING THAT HE WAS ALLOWED TO TAKE THE BOAT LIFT. MR DORE THEN TOLD US THAT AFTER THEY LOADED UP THE BOAT LIFT THEY WENT TO CARTERâS RECYCLING AND HE RECYCLED THE STEEL BOAT LIFT AND received $80.00. MR DORE STATED THAT HE PROVIDED HIS DRIVERâS LICENSE AND THUMBPRINT TO CARTERâS RECYCLING SO HE RECEIVED THE MONEY. MR DORE SAID THAT HE GAVE HALF OF THE MONEY ($40.00) TO MR PRIVE AND PUT THE OTHER $40.00 IN GAS IN HIS VEHICLE. MR DORE WAS ASKED IF HE HAD CONTACTED THE OWNER OF THE RENTAL HOUSE AND HE STATED NO, HE DID NOT TALK TO ANYBODY. MR DORE DID STATE THAT HE DID NOT PERSONALLY GET PERMISSION FROM THE OWNER TO TAKE THE DAVITS FROM THE RESIDENCE. I ASKED MR DORE IF HE WAS CONFRONTED BY A WITNESS AT THE SCENE OF THE THEFT. MR DORE STATED NO, HE DID SEE MR PRIVEâS BROTHER, BUT DID NOT ACTUALLY TALK TO HIM. THE VICTIM, MR DUENNES DID INFORMED ME THAT HE DID NOT RECEIVED A TELEPHONE CALL FROM MR DORE, NOR DID HE GIVE PERMISSION FOR MR PRIVE OR MR DORE TO TAKE THE BOAT LIFT DAVITS. AT THAT TIME, MR DORE WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR GRAND THEFT AND GIVING FALSE INFORMATION TO A RECYCLER. HE WAS PLACED IN THE BACK OF MY PATROL VEHICLE WITH DEFENDANT ONE. MR DORE IMMEDIATELY ASKED DEFENDANT ONE WHY HE WAS LYING. DEFENDANT ONE STATED THAT he was NOT LYING AND THAT MR DORE HAD ARRANGED THE ENTIRE THEFT. A HEATED argument ENSUED AND BOTH DEFENDANTâS RODE QUIETLY TO THE DETENTION FACILITY WHERE MR DOREâS BOND WAS SET AT A TOTAL OF $4,000.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
