| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: POLLARD, RANDALL 0677 (AR15-14295) ON 031615, WHILE CONDUCTING SURVEILLANCE ON SOUTH FLORIDA AVENUE, I OBSERVED A GRAY FORD FOCUS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON ROUND LAKE DRIVE. UPON REACHING THE STOP SIGN AT SOUTH FLORIDA AVENUE, THE VEHICLE DID NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND CONTINUED THROUGH THE STOP SIGN BETWEEN 10-15 MILES PER HOUR. I CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE AND MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER, MS MICHELLE COX, THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, MR RICHARD MCCURDY AND THE REAR SEAT PASSENGER, MR MICHAEL SINKA. I INFORMED MS COX OF HER TRAFFIC INFRACTION AND REQUESTED HER DRIVERâS LICENSE; PROOF OF INSURANCE AND HER REGISTRATION INFORMATION. I ALSO REQUESTED THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE FRONT AND REAR SEAT PASSENGERS. WHILE DOING SO, CANINE DEPUTY INDORATO (0712) ARRIVED ON SCENE AND I REQUESTED THAT HE CONDUCT AN EXTERIOR SNIFF OF THE VEHICLE. WHILE RUNNING ALL THE SUBJECTS INFORMATION THROUGH TELETYPE FOR POSSIBLE WANTS AND WARRANTS, DEPUTY INDORATO CONDUCTED HIS EXTERIOR SNIFF. HE ADVISED ME THAT HIS CANINE PARTNER HAD ALERTED TO THE PRESENCE OF THE ODOR OF NARCOTICS INSIDE THE VEHICLE, AT WHICH TIME I REQUESTED THAT ALL THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE. I PATTED THE OCCUPANTS DOWN FOR POSSIBLE WEAPONS WHICH YIELDED NEGATIVE RESULTS. A FURTHER SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE YIELDED A SMALL PLASTIC BAGGIE CONTAINING WHITE RESIDUE. THE BAGGIE WAS STUCK BETWEEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND A SMALL PLASTIC PIECE NEAR THE FLOORBOARD. THE WAY THE BAGGIE WAS PLACED IN THAT AREA INDICATED IT WAS SHOVED INSIDE, DUE TO THERE NOT BEING MUCH SPACE FOR THE ITEM TO FALL INTO. THE ONLY ONE WHO HAD REASONABLE ACCESS TO THE BAGGIE WAS MR RICHARD MCCURDY/DEFENDANT, AS MS COX WAS DRIVING AND THE REAR PASSENGER IS DISABLED. THE BAGGIE WAS REMOVED AND A PRESUMPTIVE FIELD TEST YIELDED POSITIVE RESULTS FOR METHAMPHETAMINE. I CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION WITH THE DRIVER AND THE REAR SEAT PASSENGER, AND LEARNED THEY WERE LEAVING THE AREA WHERE NARCOTIC SALES ARE FREQUENT. HOWEVER, ALL INVOLVED PARTIES DENIED HAVING ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THE BAGGIE BEING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. AT THAT TIME I INFORMED MR MCCURDY THAT HE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR POSSESSION OF PARAPHERNALIA. I FURTHER INFORMED THE DEFENDANT THAT I WOULD ISSUING HIM A NOTICE TO APPEAR CITATION (#17166) WITH A MANDATORY COURT HEARING SET FOR 040215 AT 1300 HOURS AT THE CITRUS COUNTY COURTHOUSE. THE DEFENDANT SIGNED THE NOTICE TO APPEAR CITATION AND STATED THAT HE UNDERSTOOD HIS COURT DATE AND TIME. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN RELEASED ON HIS OWN RECOGNIZANCE. THE PLASTIC BAGGIE CONTAINING THE METHAMPHETAMINE RESIDUE WAS COLLECTED FOR SUBMISSION TO EVIDENCE. NO FURTHER BY THIS DEPUTY. |
