| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: DONCOURT, DAVID (AR16-19780)(16-77545) DID UNLAWFULLY, WILLFULLY AND MALICIOUSLY INJURE OR DAMAGE CERTAIN PROPERTY OF THE QUALITY INN, TO-WIT: A WINDOW, SAID DAMAGE BEING OF A VALUE OF $200.00 OR MORE, BUT LESS THAN $1,000.00, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATUTES 806.13(1)(A) AND 806.13(1)(B)(2) ON 060716, I WAS DISPATCHED TO THE QUALITY INN IN HERNANDO, IN REFERENCE TO A TRESPASS. UPON MY ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH MS STACY DOUGLASS, LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE COMPLAINANT, WHO ADVISED THAT SHE HAD A TENANT IN ROOM 204 THAT WAS SMOKING, BROKE THE WINDOW, WAS NOT PAYING HER BILL, AND REFUSED TO LEAVE THE HOTEL. DEPUTY FISHER (1335), THE COMPLAINANT, AND I THEN WENT TO ROOM 204 WHERE WE MADE CONTACT WITH MS NANCY DEAN, LATER IDENTIFIED AS THE DEFENDANT, WHO ADVISED THAT HER EX-BOYFRIEND THREW A BEER BOTTLE THROUGH THE WINDOW FROM THE OUTSIDE AND THAT SHE WAS STAYING IN THE ROOM ALONE. AFTER OBSERVING THE WINDOW IT WAS CLEAR THAT THE GLASS HAD BEEN BROKEN OUTWARD AND THE SCREEN HAD BEEN REMOVED FROM THE WINDOW. I COULD SEE A BEER BOTTLE ON THE ROOF, ADJACENT TO THE WINDOW, WHICH MATCHED THAT OF THE BEER BOTTLES IN THE ROOM, TO INCLUDE THE LOT NUMBER, 21MAY16JB68. THE DEFENDANT THEN CHANGED HER STORY SEVERAL TIMES. WE THEN HAD HER PACK HER BELONGINGS AND EXIT THE BUILDING. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH WITNESS MS MARY SUMNER, WHO ADVISED SHE WAS SITTING ON THE GAZEBO OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOW AND HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE AN ARGUMENT AND GLASS BREAKING. WHEN SHE TURNED AROUND SHE NOTICED THE WINDOW HAD BEEN BROKEN. SHE ALSO STATED NO ONE WAS OUTSIDE WITH HER; SHE WAS ALONE IN THE GAZEBO WHERE THE DEFENDANT STATED HER EX-BOYFRIEND WAS STANDING DIRECTLY NEXT TO WHILE THROWING THE BOTTLE. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN READ MIRANDA AND ADVISED SHE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST. THE DEFENDANT WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE-LOCKED) AND LOADED INTO THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. THE DEFENDANT WAS CHARGED WITH ONE COUNT OF CRIMINAL MISCHIEF $200.00 TO $1,000.00, WITH A BOND AMOUNT OF $1,000.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
