| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: CUTLIP, JOSHUA 0721 (AR11122752) DID UNLAWFULLY AND WILLFULLY ENTER OR REMAIN IN A STRUCTURE OR CONVEYANCE, TO WIT: CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL THE PROPERTY OF THE VICTIM, WITHOUT BEING AUTHORIZED, LICENSED, OR INVITED TO DO SO BY THE OWNER, LESSEE, OR THEIR AGENT, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 810.09(2)(B). ON 091411 AT APPROXIMATELY 2340 HOURS WHILE AT CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL LOCATED AT 502 WEST HIGHLAND BOULEVARD IN INVERNESS, WHERE I WAS ADVISED BY HOSPITAL STAFF THAT THERE WAS A PATIENT IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM LOBBY AREA WHO AFTER BEING DISCHARGED REFUSED TO LEAVE. I MADE CONTACT WITH THE SUBJECT LATER IDENTIFIED AS MR KEVIN STEIN, WHO INSISTED THAT HE HAD SOMEONE TO COME AND PICK HIM UP, HOWEVER, THROUGH SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE THE PERSON AND HAVE THEM COME AND PICK THE PATIENT UP. I WAS THEN ADVISED BY HOSPITAL STAFF THAT ON 091311 THE SAME SUBJECT WAS SEEN AT CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL WHERE HE AGAIN REFUSED TO LEAVE AFTER TREATMENT WAS RENDERED AND BEING FULLY DISCHARGED. HOSPITAL STAFF ADVISED THAT THE SUBJECT BECAME VERY BELLIGERENT AND HOSTILE TOWARDS HOSPITAL STAFF WHERE THE SUBJECT WAS ORDERED TO LEAVE THE PREMISES AND NOT RETURN. ON 091411 THE SAME SUBJECT RETURNED TO CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL FOR TREATMENT WHERE THE SUBJECT WAS SEEN BY A MEDICAL PHYSICIAN AND LATER DISCHARGED WHERE AGAIN THE SUBJECT REFUSED TO LEAVE THE PREMISES BUT CONTINUED TO USE CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL'S FACILITY IN REFERENCE TO ENTERTAINMENT (TELEVISION) AND BATHROOM FACILITIES. AFTER HAVING WITNESSED THIS HOSPITAL SECURITY GUARD HARRY INSTRUCTED THE SUBJECT TO GATHER HIS BELONGINGS AND LEAVE. THE SUBJECT THEN BECAME BELLIGERENT AGAIN AND THAT IS WHEN I INTERVENED. I ASKED THE SUBJECT TO STEP OUTSIDE WHERE I THEN INSTRUCTED THE SUBJECT TO LEAVE THE PREMISES DUE TO HIS HOSTILE NATURE AND REFUSAL TO LEAVE UPON REQUEST. I THEN ENSURED THAT THE SUBJECT UNDERSTOOD THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS INVOLVING THE SUBJECT BEING OFFICIALLY TRESPASSED BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. I EXPLAINED TO THE SUBJECT THAT IF HE WERE TO RETURN AFTER MY OFFICIAL WARNING THAT HE WILL BE SUBJECT TO ARREST FOR THE CHARGES OF TRESPASS AFTER WARNING. APPROXIMATELY THREE HOURS LATER AT APPROXIMATELY 0145 HOURS, I WAS DISPATCHED TO CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL IN REFERENCE TO THE SAME SUBJECT RETURNING AND REFUSING TO LEAVE. UPON ARRIVAL I MADE CONTACT WITH THE SUBJECT, MR KEVIN STEIN, WHO STATED TO ME THAT HE WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO PICK HIM UP, HOWEVER, BASED ON THE CONVERSATIONS WITH HOSPITAL STAFF AND SECURITY GUARDS ON DUTY, THE SUBJECT'S STORY OF WAITING FOR A RIDE WAS THE SAME FOR THE PAST TWO TIMES HE WAS AT CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. I THEN QUESTIONED MR STEIN IN REFERENCE TO HIS REASON OF BEING ON THE PROPERTY OF CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AFTER HAVING BEEN WARNED AND TOLD NOT TO RETURN. MR STEIN COULD NOT GIVE ME A GOOD REASON OR A SOLID ANSWER FOR HAVING RETURNED TO CITRUS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT HE IS WAITING FOR A RIDE. THE SUBJECT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST, HANDCUFFED, BEHIND HIS BACK, (DOUBLE LOCKED), SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT $250.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. THE DEFENDANT'S PROPERTY WAS TURNED OVER TO CORRECTIONS CORPORATION OF AMERICA STAFF.
