DID UNLAWFULLY HAVE IN HER ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE POSSESSION WITH THE INTENT TO USE, OR DID UNLAWFULLY USE, AN OBJECT INTENDED OR DESIGNED FOR USE IN STORING, CONCEALING OR INJECTING, INGESTING, INHALING OR OTHERWISE INTRODUCING INTO THE HUMAN BODY, A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE, TO WIT: GLASS PIPE, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE AND 893.147(1)(B) DID UNLAWFULLY AND KNOWINGLY HAVE IN HIS/HER ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE POSSESSION A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE, TO WIT: CANNABIS, COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS MARIJUANA, IN AN AMOUNT OF 20 GRAMS OR LESS, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 893.13(6)(B). ON 061314, I WAS TRAVELING SOUTH BOUND ON FOREST RIDGE BOULEVARD APPROACHING WEST SUNBIRD PATH WHEN I NOTICED A WHITE GMC SUV TRAVELING AT A SLOW RATE OF SPEED APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES PER HOUR (MPH) ALSO TRAVELING SOUTH ON FOREST RIDGE BOULEVARD IN FRONT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD TWO WHEELS ON THE PAVEMENT AND TWO WHEELS ON THE GRASS SHOULDER. I ALSO OBSERVED A WHITE MALE, LATER IDENTIFIED AS MR JONATHAN LAMBERT, WHO WAS WALKING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ON THE GRASS SHOULDER. AT THAT TIME, I CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE, BEARING LICENSE PLATE NUMBER L274GT. UPON EXITING MY PATROL VEHICLE, I ASKED MR LAMBERT WHAT HE WAS DOING AND HE ADVISED SOME MONEY HAD FLOWN OUT OF HIS PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW AND HE WAS ATTEMPTING TO RETRIEVE IT FROM THE GRASS. I THEN MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE/DEFENDANT, MS ROBIN LAMBERT, WHO ADVISED ME SHE JUST HAD AN ARGUMENT WITH HER SON AND HER SON JUST JUMPED OUT OF HER VEHICLE. AT THAT TIME, I SMELLED THE AROMA OF CANNABIS EMITTING FROM THE VEHICLE. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT FOR HER DRIVER'S LICENSE REGISTRATION AND INSURANCE WHICH SHE PROVIDED. I THEN ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE HAD ANYTHING ILLEGAL IN THE VEHICLE TO WHICH SHE STATED SHE JUST âHAD THIS BAG OF WEED.â AT THAT TIME, SHE REACHED IN THE FLOORBOARD OF THE VEHICLE AND SHOWED ME WHAT I BELIEVED TO BE, THROUGH MY TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE, MARIJUANA. I THEN REQUESTED THE DEFENDANT TO EXIT THE VEHICLE AT WHICH TIME I PLACED HER IN HANDCUFFS (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HER BACK, SEARCHED, AND SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. DEPUTY FELIX THEN ARRIVED ON SCENE. I READ THE DEFENDANT HER MIRANDA RIGHTS VIA A PRE PRINTED AGENCY CARD AND SHE ADVISED SHE UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED TO SPEAK WITH ME. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF THERE WAS ANYTHING ELSE ILLEGAL IN THE VEHICLE. SHE ADVISED THERE WAS A HYDROCODON PILL IN THE CENTER CONSOLE IN A BAGGIE, WHICH SHE IS NOT PRESCRIBED THAT MEDICATION AND GOT IT FROM A FRIEND. AT THAT TIME, SHE CONSENTED TO A SEARCH OF HER VEHICLE. I CONDUCTED A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE WHERE I FOUND A WHITE OVAL PILL WITH AN INSCRIPTION OF WATSON 853, WHICH IS ACETAMINOPHEN 325 MILLIGRAMS ALONG WITH HYDROCODON 10 MILLIGRAMS. UPON FURTHER SEARCHING THE VEHICLE, UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT OF THE VEHICLE WHERE THE DEFENDANT WAS SITTING, WAS A BLUE METAL TIN WITH THE WORD SNICKERS ON IT. IN THAT CONTAINER, I LOCATED ANOTHER BAGGIE OF MARIJUANA ALONG WITH A GLASS PIPE WITH RESIDUE. THE MARIJUANA WAS FIELD TESTED WITH AN AGENCY TEST KIT AND TESTED POSITIVE FOR MARIJUANA. I THEN SPOKE WITH the DEFENDANT ONCE AGAIN, WHO WAS VERY COOPERATIVE AND SHE CLAIMED THE DRUG PARAPHERNALIA ALONG WITH THE MARIJUANA THAT HAD A TOTAL WEIGHT OF SEVEN GRAMS AND WAS WEIGHED OUT OF THE PACKAGING. AT THAT TIME, I ADVISED THE DEFENDANT SHE WAS GOING TO BE PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR POSSESSION OF CANNABIS LESS THAN 20 GRAMS, POSSESSION OF DRUG PARAPHERNALIA, AND POSSESSION OF A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE. I MADE CONTACT WITH HER SON, MR LAMBERT, WHO CALLED A FRIEND TO COME PICK UP THE VEHICLE SINCE HE STATED HE DOES NOT HAVE A DRIVER'S LICENSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OVER TO HER SON AND HIS FRIEND. I THEN TRANSPORTED THE DEFENDANT TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANTâS BOND WAS SET AT $4,000.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. THE MARIJUANA, DRUG PARAPHERNALIA AND PILLS WILL BE TURNED INTO EVIDENCE. |
