| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: SANCHEZ, MICHAEL 1242 (AR14-11418) IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR A PERSON WHO HAS BEEN ARRESTED OR LAWFULLY DETAINED BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER TO GIVE A FALSE NAME, OR OTHERWISE FALSELY IDENTIFY HIMSELF OR HERSELF IN ANY WAY, TO THE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER OR ANY COUNTY JAIL PERSONNEL, TO WIT: THE DEFENDANT GAVE A WRONG NAME TWICE TO LAW ENFORCEMENT BEFORE GIVING HIS TRUE NAME, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE NUMBER 901.36(1). ON 080114 AT APPROXIMATELY 1400 HOURS, I WAS DISPATCHED TO THE AREA OF 700 WEST NORVELL BRYANT HIGHWAY (CVS PHARMACY), TO BACK-UP CITRUS COUNTY'S SHERIFF DAWSY (0009) UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH SHERIFF DAWSY, WHO ADVISED THAT HE HAD CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE BEARING FLORIDA LICENSE PLATE NUMBER 4130PF. AT THAT TIME THE SHERIFF ADVISED THAT THE DRIVER/DEFENDANT ONE, MR STEVEN ROGER CLARK, WAS DRIVING WHILE LICENSE SUSPENDED KNOWINGLY. THE SHERIFF ALSO ADVISED THAT THERE WAS A SECOND MALE OCCUPANT, LATER IDENTIFIED AS DEFENDANT TWO, MR JOHN STEVEN LOUALLEN, IN THE BACKSEAT OF THE VEHICLE. I THEN TOOK OVER THE SCENE AS PRIMARY DEPUTY. I REMOVED THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE, AT WHICH TIME, HE WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED), SEARCHED AND SEATED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. SERGEANT BALL (0489) ATTEMPTED TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE SECOND MALE OCCUPANT, WHO GAVE SERGEANT BALL A NAME OF "NORMAN ALLEN". SERGEANT BALL ADVISED ME THAT NO INFORMATION WAS COMING BACK ON THAT SUBJECT'S NAME. THE SUBJECT WAS THEN REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE, WHERE HE WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED), SEARCHED, WHERE I LOCATED TWO SYRINGES IN HIS FRONT LEFT POCKET; ONE CONTAINING A CLEAR LIQUID SUBSTANCE IN IT. HE WAS THEN DETAINED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. I THEN ATTEMPTED TO OBTAIN THE SUBJECT'S NAME AND HE ADVISED ME IT WAS "LOU ALLEN", WHICH ALSO CAME BACK WITH NO INFORMATION. A SHORT TIME LATER, DEFENDANT TWO GAVE ME HIS REAL NAME. DEFENDANT TWO WAS IDENTIFIED AS MR JOHN STEVEN LOUALLEN. AFTER GATHERING THE INFORMATION FROM BOTH DEFENDANTS, THERE WAS A THIRD PASSENGER in the VEHICLE, WHO WAS IDENTIFIED AS MS LINDA HOWINGTON. MS HOWINGTON REMAINED IN THE VEHICLE, WHERE SHE WAS INSTRUCTED TO ROLL THE WINDOWS UP. K-9 DEPUTY DEARDEN (0363) AND HIS K-9 TYSON, PERFORMED AN EXTERIOR SNIFF OF THE VEHICLE. HE ADVISED THAT HIS K-9 GAVE A POSITIVE ALERT. MS HOWINGTON WAS ASKED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, WHICH SHE COMPLIED. AT THAT TIME A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE WAS CONDUCTED. IN THE CENTER CONSOLE OF THE VEHICLE THREE ADDITIONAL SYRINGES WERE LOCATED. I ASKED MS HOWINGTON WHO THEY BELONGED TO; HOWEVER, SHE STATED SHE DID NOT KNOW. I ASKED MS HOWINGTON IF SHE HAD ANY SYRINGES ON HER PERSON, WHERE SHE ADVISED that SHE DID AND THEN REMOVED TWO SYRINGES FROM INSIDE the WAISTLINE AREA OF HER PANTS. ALL SYRINGES WERE COLLECTED AT THE SCENE. WHEN I ASKED DEFENDANT TWO, WHAT SUBSTANCE WAS IN HIS SYRINGE, HE ADVISED IT WAS "JUST WATER". THE SUBSTANCE IN THE SYRINGE WILL BE SENT OFF FOR TESTING. AFTER THE SEARCH OF the VEHICLE WAS CONCLUDED, MS HOWINGTON CONTACTED A FRIEND, WHO WAS ABLE TO COME PICK HER UP ALONG WITH THE VEHICLE. AT THAT TIME DEFENDANT ONE WAS ADVISED HE WAS UNDER ARREST FOR DRIVING WHILE LICENSE SUSPENDED KNOWINGLY. DEFENDANT TWO WAS ADVISED HE WAS UNDER ARREST FOR FALSELY IDENTIFYING HIMSELF TO LAW ENFORCEMENT. BOTH SUBJECTS WERE TRANSPORTED to the CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. DEFENDANT ONE WAS ISSUED UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION NUMBER, A126V9P, FOR DRIVING WHILE LICENSE SUSPENDED KNOWINGLY, WITH A MANDATORY COURT DATE TO BE DETERMINED AT FIRST APPEARANCE. DEFENDANT ONE'S BOND WAS SET AT $500.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE (AR14-11417). DEFENDANT TWO'S BOND WAS SET AT $500.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE (AR14-11418). |
