ON 051410, AT APPROXIMATELY 0330 HOURS, I CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON A CHEVROLET IMPALA IN REFERENCE TO A RECORDS CHECK ON THE TAG, WHICH REVEALED THAT THE DRIVER'S LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED. UPON MAKING CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER, I ASKED the DRIVER FOR HIS LICENSE AND REGISTRATION, AT WHICH TIME the FEMALE PASSENGER ASKED THIS DEPUTY WHAT THE REASON WAS THAT WE STOPPED THE VEHICLE. AFTER I FINISHED MY INTERVIEW WITH THE DRIVER, I THEN ASKED THE FEMALE PASSENGER FOR HER IDENTIFICATION, AT WHICH TIME SHE PRODUCED A FLORIDA IDENTIFICATION CARD. I THEN ASKED THE PASSENGER IF THERE WAS ANYTHING ON HER PERSON, THE DEFENDANT STATED, NO. SHORTLY AFTER CANINE DEPUTY DEARDEN ALONG WITH CANINE TYSON ARRIVED ON SCENE AND CONDUCTED AN EXTERIOR WALK AROUND THE VEHICLE. THE CANINE ALERTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR OF THE VEHICLE (SEE CANINE REPORT). I THEN HAD THE PASSENGER STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE ALONG WITH THE DRIVER. A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE WAS CONDUCTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. WHILE CONDUCTING A SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE, A PRESCRIPTION BOTTLE WAS LOCATED INSIDE the VEHICLE WITH PERCOCET PILLS THAT WERE PRESCRIBED TO THE PASSENGER/DEFENDANT. I APPROACHED THE PASSENGER AND ASKED HER IF SHE HAD ANYTHING ELSE ON HER PERSON, AT WHICH TIME SHE REACHED INTO HER RIGHT FRONT POCKET AND PULLED OUT A SMALL CLEAR PLASTIC BAG CONTAINING MARIJUANA. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN PLACED UNDER ARREST. UPON CONDUCTING ANOTHER PAT DOWN OF THE DEFENDANT, THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THIS DEPUTY that SHE HAD ANOTHER BAGGIE OF MARIJUANA IN HER LEFT FRONT POCKET. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN ADVISED THAT A FEMALE DEPUTY WAS COMING TO CONDUCT A THOROUGH SEARCH OF HER PERSON. I ADVISED HER THAT IF SHE HAD ANYTHING ELSE ON HER PERSON TO LET ME KNOW, AT WHICH TIME SHE ADVISED THAT SHE DID. DEPUTY TEWELL THEN ARRIVED ON SCENE, WHO WALKED with THE DEFENDANT BEHIND A STRUCTURE. THE DEFENDANT THEN PRODUCED A SMALL BAGGIE CONTAINING SUSPECTED CRACK COCAINE. BOTH THE MARIJUANA AND CRACK COCAINE WERE FIELD TESTED which TESTED POSITIVE FOR CRACK COCAINE AND MARIJUANA. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE-LOCKED) BEHIND HER BACK AND SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. SHE WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. UPON ARRIVAL AT THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY THE DEFENDANT WAS RELEASED ON HER OWN RECOGNIZANCE DUE TO HER MEDICAL CONDITION. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
