| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: WEATHERFORD, D KEAGON 0710 (AR12-1366) ON 053012 AT 0300 HOURS, WHILE SITTING STATIONARY IN THE MEDIAN OF US HIGHWAY 19 JUST NORTH OF WEST VENABLE STREET, I OBSERVED A FOUR DOOR VEHICLE TRAVELING AT SPEED GREATER THAN THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT OF 45 MILES PER HOUR (MPH.) I ESTIMATED THE VEHICLE’S SPEED TO BE 57 MPH. I ACTIVATED MY RADAR UNIT, RECEIVED A CLEAR AUDIO DOPPLER TONE AND A SPEED OF 56 MILE MPH APPEARED IN THE TARGET SPEED WINDOW. I GOT BEHIND THE VEHICLE, ACTIVATED MY OVERHEAD EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE BEARING FLORIDA TAG RIM-321,IN THE PARKING LOT OF THE BOATHOUSE RESTAURANT LOCATED AT 1935 SOUTHEAST HIGHWAY 19 IN CRYSTAL RIVER. UPON APPROACHING THE VEHICLE, I DETECTED A STRONG ODOR OF CANNABIS EMITTING FROM THE VEHICLE. I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER/DEFENDANT, LATER IDENTIFIED AS MS KINDALL BEGLEY, AND ADVISED HER OF THE REASON FOR THE TRAFFIC STOP. I ASKED DEFENDANT BEGLEY FOR HER DRIVER’S LICENSE, THE VEHICLE REGISTRATION AND PROOF OF INSURANCE, WHICH SHE PROVIDED. I THEN ASKED THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, MR TRACY GILPIN, AND THE REAR SEAT PASSENGER, MS KASI CALDWELL, FOR THEIR IDENTIFICATION WHICH THEY PROVIDED. I RETURNED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE AND REQUESTED CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO RESPOND TO MY TRAFFIC STOP. WHILE COMPLETING A WRITTEN WARNING FOR EXCESSIVE SPEED, CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO ARRIVED ON SCENE AND HE AND CANINE CONAN CONDUCTED AN EXTERIOR SNIFF ON THE VEHICLE. CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO ADVISED THAT CANINE CONAN HAD ALERTED. SEE CANINE DEPUTY VIGGIANO’S SUPPLEMENT FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. UPON MAKING CONTACT WITH DEFENDANT BEGLEY AGAIN, SHE ADVISED SHE DID HAVE CANNABIS IN HER POSSESSION. SHE ADVISED THE CANNABIS WAS IN A BROWN BOX IN THE BACK SEAT OF HER VEHICLE. AFTER ASKING ALL OF THE OCCUPANTS TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE I RETRIEVED THE BROWN BOX THAT DEFENDANT BEGLEY STATED CONTAINED THE CANNABIS. UPON LOOKING IN THE BOX, I OBSERVED A CLEAR PLASTIC BAG CONTAINING A GREEN LEAFY SUBSTANCE WHICH I KNEW THROUGH MY TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE AS CANNABIS. I ALSO OBSERVED A MARIJUANA CIGARETTE ALONG WITH A PARTIALLY SMOKED MARIJUANA CIGARETTE IN THE BROWN BOX. THE CANNABIS WAS WEIGHED AND WEIGHED APPROXIMATELY EIGHT GRAMS. THE CANNABIS WAS LATER PACKAGED, A PROPERTY RECEIPT WAS COMPLETED AND THE CONTRABAND WAS TURNED IN TO EVIDENCE. DEFENDANT BEGLEY ADVISED THAT THE CANNABIS WAS SOLELY HERS AND THAT SHE HAD GOTTEN IT FROM A FRIEND. DEFENDANT BEGLEY WAS ADVISED SHE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR POSSESSION OF CANNABIS IN AN AMOUNT UNDER TWENTY GRAMS. SHE WAS ISSUED A MISDEMEANOR NOTICE TO APPEAR CITATION, CITATION NUMBER 19503, WITH A MANDATORY COURT APPEARANCE DATE ON 061412 AT 1300 HOURS AT THE CITRUS COUNTY COURTHOUSE. I THEN COMPLETED DEFENDANT BEGLEY’S WRITTEN WARNING, AT WHICH TIME SHE SIGNED HER NOTICE TO APPEAR CITATION AND RECEIVED HER COPY OF BOTH THE CITATION AND THE WRITTEN WARNING. DEFENDANT BEGLEY AND HER PASSENGERS WERE THEN RELEASED ON SCENE. |
