Probable cause affidavit: SUBMITTED By: CULBERTSON, CHRISTOPHER 0439 (AR08101268) did knowingly, actually and intentionally touch or strike OFFICER LOMANTA, a CORRECTION CORPORATION OF AMERICA, against the will of that person while knowing that the said OFFICER LOMANTA was engaged in a lawful performance of HIS legal duties, in violation of Florida Statute 784.07(2). ON 011608, I RESPONDED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY LOCATED AT 2604 WEST WOODLAND RIDGE DRIVE IN REFERENCE TO A BATTERY THAT HAD ALREADY OCCURRED. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM, CORRECTION OFFICER LOMANTA. HE ADVISED THAT WHILE HE WAS TAKING TWO FEDERAL INMATES OUT FOR RECREATION, HE FIRST HANDCUFFED THE DEFENDANT, MR JUSTIN MERRITT AND TOLD HIM TO STEP BACK TO HANDCUFF THE OTHER INMATE. HE ADVISED THAT HE HANDCUFFED THE DEFENDANT BEHIND HIS BACK AND PLACED ONE HANDCUFF ON THE OTHER INMATE. AT THAT TIME, THE DEFENDANT GRABBED THE VICTIM'S LEFT HAND AND TRIED TO PULL IT THROUGH THE FOOD SLOT IN THE DOOR. AT THAT TIME, I DID NOT OBSERVE ANY VISIBLE INJURIES TO THE VICTIM'S LEFT HAND. THE VICTIM REFUSED EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS). I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH A WITNESS WHO WAS ANOTHER CORRECTIONS OFFICER. HE ADVISED THAT HE WAS ASSISTING THE VICTIM TO TAKE THE INMATE OUT TO RECREATION. HE OBSERVED WHAT APPEARED TO BE THE DEFENDANT GRAB OR STRIKE THE VICTIM'S HAND. AT THAT POINT, THEY OPENED THE DOOR TO TAKE THE INMATES OUT FOR RECREATION. THE WITNESS STATED THAT THE VICTIM HELD THE DEFENDANT AGAINST THE WALL AND ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHY HE TOUCHED HIM, TO WHICH THE DEFENDANT DID NOT RESPOND TO THE VICTIM. THE VICTIM THEN TOLD THE DEFENDANT NEVER TO TOUCH HIM AND LET GO OF THE DEFENDANT. AT THAT TIME, THE UNIT MANAGER WAS CALLED. AT THAT TIME, I SPOKE WITH THE DEFENDANT. HE ADVISED THAT WHEN HE WAS GETTING READY FOR RECREATION, HE WAS HANDCUFFED BEHIND HIS BACK. HE ADVISED THAT WHILE HIS ROOMMATE WAS GETTING HANDCUFFED BY THE VICTIM, THE DEFENDANT REACHED DOWN TO GET HIS PEN FROM OUT OF HIS ROOMMATES HAND. HE ADVISED THAT THE VICTIM ACCUSED HIM OF TOUCHING HIM. HE ALSO ADVISED THAT HE HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE VICTIM IN THE PAST. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE IN FACT TOUCHED THE VICTIM'S HAND, TO WHICH HE ADVISED THAT HE JUST BRUSHED UP AGAINST IT. AT THAT TIME, I HAD ALL THREE SUBJECTS COMPLETE WRITTEN STATEMENTS. I PLACED THE DEFENDANT UNDER ARREST AND HE WAS BOOKED FOR BATTERY ON A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT DUE TO HIM ALREADY BEING INCARCERATED. *NOT-EXEMPT*
