| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: SCHANEL, CHARLES 0252 (12-149131) (AR12-2448) DID UNLAWFULLY AND KNOWINGLY OBTAIN, USE OR ENDEAVOR TO OBTAIN OR USE THE PROPERTY OF THE VICTIM, TO-WIT: JEWELRY OF THE VALUE OF THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($300.00) OR MORE, BUT LESS THAN FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($5,000.00), WITH THE INTENT TO EITHER TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY DEPRIVE THE VICTIM OF A RIGHT TO THE PROPERTY OR A BENEFIT THEREOF, OR DID APPROPRIATE THE SAID PROPERTY TO HER OWN USE OR THE USE OF ANY PERSON NOT ENTITLED THERETO, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATUTES 812.014(2)(C)(1). ON 082012 AT APPROXIMATELY 1022 HOURS, I RESPONDED TO 40 SOUTH HARRISON STREET IN BEVERLY HILLS IN REFERENCE TO A THEFT OF JEWELRY THAT HAD ALREADY OCCURRED. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM, MS DARLA LAMBERSON, WHO ADVISED THAT OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS HER DAUGHTER/DEFENDANT, MS LISA VAUGHAN, HAD STOLEN SEVERAL PIECES OF HER JEWELRY FROM HER RESIDENCE AT 19 MEADOWDALE STREET IN BEVERLY HILLS FOR THE PURPOSE OF OBTAINING JEWELRY FOR CASH TO PURCHASE NARCOTICS. THE VICTIM STATED THAT HER DAUGHTER HAS A HISTORY OF SHOOTING UP OR INJECTING DILAUDID. SHE CONFRONTED HER DAUGHTER OF THE ALLEGATIONS AND SHE ADMITTED TO TAKING SEVERAL PIECES OF JEWELRY AND PAWNING THEM FOR HER DRUG HABIT. THE ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE STOLEN JEWELRY WAS APPROXIMATELY $4,000.00, SEE PROPERTY SCREENS. WHILE THE VICTIM WAS STATING THE ABOVE ALLEGATIONS, THE DEFENDANT/DAUGHTER WAS PRESENT. BEFORE QUESTIONING THE DEFENDANT, SHE DID ADMIT TO HER MOTHER IN MY PRESENCE THAT SHE DID TAKE SEVERAL PIECES OF JEWELRY AND DID PAWN THEM AT A LOCAL PAWN SHOP IN CRYSTAL RIVER (UNKNOWN NAME) AND A PAWN SHOP IN ZEPHYRHILLS FLORIDA, POSSIBLY DICKâS PAWN. THE DEFENDANT DID WILLFULLY STATE THAT SHE HAS A HISTORY OF SHOOTING OR INJECTING DILAUDID. SHE SAID SHE HAS BEEN CLEAN FOR THE LAST MONTH AND IN THE PAST HAS ALSO HAD THE SAME DRUG PROBLEM, HOWEVER, HAS BEEN ABLE TO âKICK THE HABITâ WITH NO ASSISTANCE. SHE THEN PROCEEDED TO SHOW ME THE TRACK MARKS ON BOTH OF HER ARMS. FROM WHAT SHE SHOWED ME THE TRACK MARKS WERE A COUPLE OF WEEKS OLD. THE DEFENDANT WAS EXTREMELY COOPERATIVE WITH ME AND HAD A CONVERSATION WITH HER MOTHER THAT SHE WOULD SOME HOW GET THE JEWELRY BACK OR COMPENSATE HER FOR THE STOLEN ITEMS. THE MOTHER ADVISED SHE WANTED TO CHARGE HER DAUGHTER AS THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND THERE HAVE BEEN ITEMS TAKEN IN THE PAST THAT SHE DID NOT REPORT. THE DEFENDANT WAS WILLING TO PROVIDE ME WITH A VERBAL STATEMENT, HOWEVER, REFUSED TO PROVIDE ME WITH A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT. THE VICTIM DID PROVIDE ME WITH A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT WITH THE LIST OF ITEMS STOLEN BY THE DEFENDANT WHICH WILL BE TURNED IN TO RECORDS. THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR GRAND THEFT, HANDCUFFED, BEHIND HER BACK, (DOUBLE LOCKED), SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT. THE DEFENDANTâS BOND WAS SET AT $2,000.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. I ATTEMPTED TO LOCATE TWO PAWN SHOPS THAT TO MY KNOWLEDGE WERE AT HIGHWAY 44 & HIGHWAY 486, DUE TO THE VICTIM AND DEFENDANT BEING UNABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE LOCATION, WHICH MET WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. THE VICTIM ADVISED SHE KNEW THE LOCATION AND WOULD PROCEED TO THAT LOCATION AND WOULD PROVIDE THEM WITH A COPY OF THIS CASE NUMBER SO THAT THE ITEMS WOULD NOT BE SOLD. I PROVIDED THE VICTIM WITH AN AGENCY ISSUED CASE CARD BEARING THIS CASE NUMBER AND MY IDENTIFICATION AND ADVISED THE VICTIM TO CONTACT THIS AGENCY WITH ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OR QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS CASE. |
