ON 022908, I WAS TRAVELING NORTH BOUND ON US HIGHWAY 19 IN THE AREA OF THE CRYSTAL RIVER MALL, WHEN I SAW TWO VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS COMING TOWARDS ME AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I ESTIMATED THE RATE OF SPEED TO BE AT APPROXIMATELY 95 MILES PER HOUR AS THE VEHICLE APPROACHED, I ACTIVATED MY RADAR UNIT AND I GOT A VERY HIGH SQUELCH FROM THE RADAR. IN RESPONSE, THE WINDOW OF THE RADAR UNIT INDICATED NINETY MILES PER HOUR. AS I WAS PULLING INTO THE MEDIAN TO TURN AROUND, THE RADAR HAD GONE UP TO 93 MILES PER HOUR. THE VEHICLE PASSED ME AND I GOT BEHIND THE VEHICLE. I NOTIFIED DEPUTY CRIDLAND THAT I WAS ATTEMPTING TO CATCH UP AND STOP A BLUE FORD PICK UP. I ACTIVATED MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND THE VEHICLE FINALLY PULLED INTO THE CVS PARKING LOT OFF OF STATE ROAD 44. I APPROACHED THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ASKED THE DRIVER FOR HER REGISTRATION, LICENSE, AND PROOF OF INSURANCE. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT SHE DID NOT HAVE HER LICENSE ON HER BUT THAT SHE DID HAVE AN ACTIVE LICENSE. I ASKED THE DRIVER FOR HER NAME SHE ADVISED ME THAT HER NAME WAS MS DONNA LOTZ. WITH A DATE OF BIRTH OF 02181959. I GAVE DEPUTY DOYLE THIS INFORMATION SO THAT HE COULD RUN HER DRIVER'S LICENSE AND I HAD HER STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT THAT I COULD SMELL A STRONG ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE EMITTING FROM HER PERSON. I THEN EXPLAINED TO HER THAT I WAS GOING TO CONDUCT A FIELD SOBRIETY TASK ON HER AT THAT TIME, I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE HAD ANY MENTAL OR PHYSICAL DISABILITIES THAT WOULD NOT ALLOW HER TO PERFORM ANY OF THE SOBRIETY TASKS, TO WHICH SHE STATED THAT SHE DID NOT. TASK ONE, HORIZONTAL GAZE NYSTAGMUS. PRIOR TO PERFORMING THIS TASK, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH HER EYES. DURING THIS TASK, THERE WAS LACK OF SMOOTH PURSUIT IN BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT EYE. ALSO, THERE WAS ONSET OF NYSTAGMUS PRIOR TO FORTY-FIVE DEGREES IN THE LEFT AND RIGHT EYE. THERE WAS DISTINCT NYSTAGMUS AT MAXIMUM DEVIATION IN BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT EYE. TASK TWO, WALK AND TURN. THIS TASK WAS EXPLAINED AND DEMONSTRATED TO THE DEFENDANT. DURING THIS TASK, THE DEFENDANT LOST HER BALANCE AND DID NOT MAKE A SMALL PIVOT AND DID NOT WALK HEEL TO TOE. TASK THREE, ONE LEG STAND. THIS TASK WAS EXPLAINED AND DEMONSTRATED TO THE DEFENDANT. DURING THIS TASK, THE DEFENDANT KEPT HER EYES OPEN, DID NOT LOOK AT HER TOE, AND PUT HER FOOT DOWN THE FIRST COUNT OF EIGHT.

TASK FIVE, FINGER TO NOSE THIS TASK WAS EXPLAINED AND DURING THIS TASK THE DEFENDANT DID NOT POINT FORWARD AND MISSED THE TIP OF NOSE TWICE AND DID NOT KEEP HER EYES CLOSED. AT THAT TIME, THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE. THIS DID USE TWO SETS OF HANDCUFFS BECAUSE OF THE DEFENDANT COMPLAINING OF SHOULDER PROBLEMS. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO HANDCUFF HER, THE DEFENDANT KEPT STRUGGLING WITH THIS DEPUTY EVEN AS SHE WAS TOLD NOT TO STRUGGLE WITH US. AS I WAS PATTING HER DOWN TO PLACE HER IN MY PATROL VEHICLE, I FELT A TUBE IN THE CENTER OF HER BRA. AS I ATTEMPTED TO RETRIEVE THE ITEM THE DEFENDANT AGAIN STARTED TO STRUGGLE WITH ME SO THAT I COULD NOT GET IT OUT. I THEN TOOK A GLASS CRACK PIPE OUT OF HER BRA. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN PLACED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. DEPUTY DOYLE WAS SEARCHING THE PICKUP TRUCK AND HE LOCATED THE DEFENDANTS REAL DRIVER'S LICENSE WITH A NAME OF WENDY SUE JUMP. AS I WAS RUNNING A "DAVID" AND NCIC/FCIC CHECK ON THE DEFENDANTS NAME DEPUTY DOYLE READ HER MIRANDA RIGHTS AND HER IMPLIED CONSENT. THE "DAVID" AND NCIC/FCIC SEARCH REVEALED THAT THE DEFENDANTS LICENSE WAS REVOKED FOR FIVE YEARS AND THAT SHE HAD AN ACTIVE WARRANT FOR VIOLATION OF PROBATION. AS I WAS READING THE SCREEN, I HEARD DEPUTY DOYLE THAT HE WAS ON A FOOT PURSUIT; I IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED HIM INTO A WOODED AREA ON THE EAST SIDE OF CVS. AS WE WERE RUNNING, DEPUTY DOYLE AND I WERE STUCK IN WAIST DEEP MUD. AS WE WERE STUCK WE GRABBED HER PANT LEG AND HER FOOT AND WE CONTINUED TO FIGHT WITH HER AS SHE WAS ATTEMPTING TO KICK US SO THAT SHE COULD GET AWAY. IT WAS AT THIS TIME, I NOTICED HER HANDCUFFS WERE IN FRONT OF HER PERSON. I NOTIFIED FOR ADDITIONAL OFFICER'S TO RESPOND. DEPUTY CRIDLAND HAD ALSO COME DOWN IN THE WOODED AREA AND HAD COME TO ASSIST DEPUTY DOYLE AND THIS DEPUTY. HE WAS ABLE TO PULL HER DOWN THE HILL WE HAD RUN DOWN. WHEN DEPUTY HORTON ARRIVED, DEPUTY HORTON THEN SECURED THE DEFENDANT IN THE REAR OF HIS PATROL VEHICLE. DEPUTY HORTON THEN TRANSPORTED THE DEFENDANT TO THE DETENTION FACILITY. THE DETENTION FACILITY THEN ISSUED THE DEFENDANT THE BREATLIZER WHERE SHE BLEW A .106 AND .106. THE DEFENDANT'S LICENSE HAD BEEN REVOKED FOR FIVE YEARS FOR STEALING A MOTOR VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT WAS READ HER MIRANDA WARNINGS VIA CARD. THE DEFENDANT WAS ALSO READ HER IMPLIED CONSENT REQUESTING HER TO SUBMIT TO THE APPROVED TEST OF HER BREATH FOR THE PURPOSE OF DETERMINING THE ALCOHOL CONTENT OF HER BLOOD. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT SHE WOULD SUBMIT TO THE APPROVED TEST OF HER BREATH WITH THE TEST RESULTS BEING A .106 AND .106. PRIOR TO LEAVING THE SCENE, THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO ADVANCED AUTO MART. THE DEFENDANT WAS CHARGED WITH DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE WITH A $500.00 BOND PER THE BOND SCHEDULE.
