| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: RODRIGUEZ, MARCIAL 0301 (AR15-17187)(15-147014) \t\t BANG, ROBERT 1187 did knowingly, actually and intentionally touch or strike DEPUTY GRANGE (1397), a LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, against the will of that person while knowing that the said OFFICER was engaged in a lawful performance of HIS legal duties, in violation of Florida Statute 784.07(2)(B). DID UNLAWFULLY RESIST, OBSTRUCT OR OPPOSE DEPUTY BANG AND DEPUTY GRANGE, WHO WAS THEN AND THERE IN THE LAWFUL EXECUTION OF A LEGAL DUTY, OR EXECUTION OF LEGAL PROCESS, TO WIT: ATTEMPTED TO RUN BACK INTO HER RESIDENCE AND ATTEMPTED TO GET AWAY FROM BOTH DEPUTIES ONCE WE APPREHENDED HER WITHOUT OFFERING OR DOING VIOLENCE TO THE PERSON OF SUCH OFFICERS, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 843.02. ON 111015, I RESPONDED TO 7671 HOMOSASSA TRAIL, IN HOMOSASSA, IN REFERENCE TO A WARRANT. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT OUTSIDE OF HER RESIDENCE, IN REFERENCE TO THE WARRANT. THE DEFENDANT WAS ADVISED OF THE WARRANT AND STATED SHE HAD TO GO INSIDE TO GATHER HER IDENTIFICATION CARD AND WAKE UP HER SIGNIFICANT OTHER TO ADVISE HIM OF THIS. THE DEFENDANT STARTED TO WALK INSIDE OF THE RESIDENCE. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO FOLLOW HER SHE QUICKLY SLAMMED THE DOOR IN THIS DEPUTY'S FACE. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE RESIDENCE, BY HER BEDROOM WINDOW, AND ADVISED HER SHE NEEDED TO COME BACK OUTSIDE TO SPEAK WITH THIS DEPUTY. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT WE NEEDED TO QUIT HARASSING HER, AND THAT SHE DID NOT HAVE A WARRANT. AFTER TELLING THE DEFENDANT TO COME OUTSIDE TWO TIMES SHE CAME OUTSIDE TO TALK TO THIS DEPUTY. I WALKED TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE RESIDENCE AND CONTACTED TELETYPE TO CONFIRM THE DEFENDANT'S WARRANT. WHILE TELETYPE WAS CONFIRMING THE WARRANT DEPUTY GRANGE ARRIVED ON SCENE AS BACKUP. ONCE TELETYPE CONFIRMED THE WARRANT I ADVISED THE DEFENDANT THAT SHE WAS GOING TO BE PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR A FAILURE TO APPEAR WARRANT. I THEN GAVE THE DEFENDANT A COMMAND TO STAND UP AND PUT HER HANDS BEHIND HER BACK. AT THAT TIME THE DEFENDANT SHOUTED "THIS ISN'T RIGHT AND I'M NOT GOING BACK TO JAIL." SHE THEN STOOD UP FROM THE CHAIR THAT SHE WAS SEATED IN AND ATTEMPTED TO RUN BACK INSIDE OF HER RESIDENCE. AT THIS TIME THIS DEPUTY WAS ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE DEFENDANT'S LEFT ARM AND ATTEMPTED TO HANDCUFF THE DEFENDANT WHEN SHE STARTED TO FLAIL HER ARMS, DROP HER BODY WEIGHT, AND ALSO JUMP UP IN THE AIR IN AN ATTEMPT TO NOT ALLOW THE DEPUTIES ON SCENE TO HANDCUFF HER. WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF DEPUTY GRANGE AND DEPUTY RODRIGUEZ (0301) THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED IN HANDCUFFS (DOUBLE LOCKED) AND PLACED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT WAS ALSO ADVISED SHE WAS BEING CHARGED WITH RESISTING ARREST WITHOUT VIOLENCE. UPON ARRIVAL AT THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY, DEPUTY GRANGE AND I ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE THE DEFENDANT FROM THE PATROL VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT STEPPED OUT OF THE PATROL VEHICLE WITH NO ISSUES AND STATED "JUST OPEN THE DOOR TO THE JAIL AND DONâT TOUCH ME." AT THAT TIME THE DOOR TO THE JAIL WAS OPENED AND DEPUTY GRANGE, THE DEFENDANT, AND I ENTERED THE HOLDING CELL. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE THE HANDCUFFS FROM THE DEFENDANT I REMOVED THE RIGHT CUFF FIRST FROM THE DEFENDANT, AND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE LEFT CUFF THE DEFENDANT STARTED TO RESIST AGAIN, AND TRIED TO PUSH AWAY FROM DEPUTY GRANGE AND THIS DEPUTY. THE DEFENDANT ALSO GRABBED THE CUFF THAT WAS OFF OF HER RIGHT HAND, WITH HER LEFT HAND, THAT WAS CLOSED AND REOPENED IT TO USE AS A WEAPON AGAINST DEPUTY GRANGE AND THIS DEPUTY. THE DEFENDANT ALSO BALLED UP HER RIGHT FIST LIKE SHE WANTED TO STRIKE DEPUTY GRANDE AND THIS DEPUTY. IN AN ATTEMPT TO RESTRAIN THE DEFENDANT WE PUT THE DEFENDANT'S HAND BEHIND HER BACK. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO RESTRAIN THE DEFENDANT'S HANDS BEHIND HER BACK THE DEFENDANT BIT DEPUTY GRANGE ON HIS LEFT FOREARM. AT THAT TIME CORRECTION OFFICER RHODE AND SIBILIA ARRIVED AND RESTRAINED THE DEFENDANT ON THE FLOOR OF THE HOLDING CELL. I WAS THEN ABLE TO REMOVE THE HANDCUFF FROM THE LEFT HAND OF THE DEFENDANT. AT THAT TIME THE DEFENDANT WAS ALSO ADVISED SHE WAS BEING CHARGED WITH BATTERY ON A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT $5,000.00 FOR BATTERY ON A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE, AND AT $1,000.00 FOR RESISTING OFFICER WITHOUT VIOLENCE, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
