Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: MATOS, THOMAS 0675 (AR09111804) UNLAWFULLY ENDANGER THE SAFETY OF ANOTHER OR THEIR PROPERTY WHILE INTOXICATED, OR DID, WHILE INTOXICATED OR DRINKING AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE IN A PUBLIC PLACE, CAUSE A PUBLIC DISTURBANCE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 856.011 AND UNLAWFULLY RESIST, OBSTRUCT OR OPPOSE CORPORAL MATTHEW BONURA OF THE CITRUS COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE, WHO WAS THEN AND THERE IN THE LAWFUL EXECUTION OF A LEGAL DUTY, OR EXECUTION OF LEGAL PROCESS, TO WIT: INVESTIGATING A DOMESTIC BATTERY CASE, WITHOUT OFFERING OR DOING VIOLENCE TO THE PERSON OF SUCH OFFICER, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 843.02. ON 110709 AT APPROXIMATELY 2115 HOURS, I WAS DISPATCHED TO CRACKER'S RESTAURANT LOCATED AT 502 NORTHWEST 6TH STREET IN CRYSTAL RIVER IN REFERENCE TO A PHYSICAL DISTURBANCE THAT JUST OCCURRED. CORPORAL BONURA, WHO WAS ALREADY ON SCENE, ADVISED HE HAD ONE SUBJECT DETAINED. UPON MY ARRIVAL AT 2117 HOURS, I MADE CONTACT WITH CORPORAL BONURA WHO WAS INTERVIEWING THE DEFENDANT, MS KIM MARIE DIXON, WHO HAD SLURRED SPEECH, GLASSY EYES, AND A STRONG ODOR OF AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE EMANATING FROM HER BREATH AS SHE SPOKE. THE INCIDENT WHICH HAD TAKEN PLACE OCCURRED WHEN THE DEFENDANT AND HER FIANCÉE' WERE LEAVING THE RESTAURANT. THEY ARRIVED AT THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE AND THE DEFENDANT WANTED TO DRIVE. THE VICTIM, KNOWING THE DEFENDANT WAS IN NO CONDITION TO DRIVE, ATTEMPTED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE KEYS AWAY FROM THE DEFENDANT. THE DEFENDANT BECAME BELLIGERENT WHEN HE TRIED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE KEYS. AT THAT POINT, THE VICTIM GRABBED THE DEFENDANT AS IF TO JUST HOLD HER DOWN, AT WHICH TIME CORPORAL BONURA ARRIVED ON SCENE. THE DEFENDANT WAS BEING UNCOOPERATIVE WITH HER ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS ASKED BY CORPORAL BONURA. SHE WAS ALSO BEING VERY OBSCURE WITH THE DETAILS OF WHAT HAD OCCURRED. WHILE CORPORAL BONURA WAS EXPLAINING TO THE DEFENDANT THE REASON FOR OUR PRESENCE, THE DEFENDANT BECAME CONFRONTATIONAL AND ADVISED SHE HAD A FAMILY MEMBER IN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND KNEW WE WERE INCORRECT. CORPORAL BONURA ADVISED THE DEFENDANT AGAIN THAT HER ACTIONS WERE NOT LEGAL. THE DEFENDANT, AT THAT TIME, TOLD CORPORAL BONURA THAT HE COULD JUST TAKE HER TO JAIL. CORPORAL BONURA MOTIONED TO THE DEFENDANT TO TURN AROUND AND PLACE HER HANDS BEHIND HER BACK. THE DEFENDANT WAS UNCOOPERATIVE AND KEPT ATTEMPTING TO TURN AROUND WHILE CORPORAL BONURA ATTEMPTED TO SECURE HER IN HANDCUFFS. I ASSISTED CORPORAL BONURA IN SECURING THE DEFENDANT IN HANDCUFFS (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HER BACK. SHE THEN WAS SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. WHILE EN ROUTE TO THE DETENTION FACILITY, THE DEFENDANT WAS EXTREMELY BELLIGERENT AND URINATED ON HERSELF. UPON ARRIVAL AT THE DETENTION FACILITY, THE DEFENDANT WAS CHARGED WITH ONE COUNT OF RESISTING ARREST WITHOUT VIOLENCE AND ONE COUNT OF DISORDERLY INTOXICATION. THE DEFENDANT'S TOTAL BOND WAS SET AT $1,000.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
