ON 072911 I RESPONDED TO 327 NORTHEAST HIGHWAY 19 IN CRYSTAL RIVER, CVS PARKING LOT, TO BACKUP DEPUTY VIGGIANO ON A TRAFFIC STOP. UPON ARRIVAL, I MADE CONTACT WITH DEPUTY VIGGIANO WHO ADVISED THAT HE HAD MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER/DEFENDANT, MR WILLIAM PARRISH, AND COULD SMELL THE ODOR OF CANNABIS EMITTING from the VEHICLE,. DEPUTY VIGGIANO THEN ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE HAD ANY ILLEGAL NARCOTICS IN THE VEHICLE, TO WHICH THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT HE HAD A SMALL ZIPPER POUCH WHICH CONTAINED NARCOTICS. UPON DEPUTY VIGGIANO'S FURTHER INVESTIGATION, HE DISCOVERED THE POUCH CONTAINED A SMALL VIAL OF COCAINE, A SMALL PLASTIC BAGGIE CONTAINING CANNABIS, A SMALL PLASTIC BAGGIE CONTAINING HASHISH AND A PACK OF JOKER ROLLING PAPERS. DEPUTY VIGGIANO ALREADY HAD THE DEFENDANT IN HANDCUFFS AND PLACED HIM in the REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. DEPUTY VIGGIANO WALKED HIS K-9 AROUND THE VEHICLE WHICH DID INDICATE TO THE ODOR OF NARCOTICS IN THE VEHICLE. A SUBSEQUENT SEARCH OF THE VEHICLE AND ITS CONTENTS REVEALED NO OTHER ITEMS OF CONTRABAND IN THE VEHICLE. I THEN CONDUCTED A PAT DOWN SEARCH OF THE DEFENDANT and LOCATED A SMALL TWO-TONE WOOD AND METAL PIPE USED FOR SMOKING CANNABIS IN HIS LEFT FRONT POCKET. ALL THE NARCOTICS AND PARAPHERNALIA WERE COLLECTED AND TURNED IN TO EVIDENCE. THE DEFENDANT WAS PLACED UNDER ARREST AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. PRIOR TO LEAVING the SCENE, THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE WAS LOCKED UP AND LEFT IN THE PARKING LOT OF the CVS AT HIS REQUEST. THE DEFENDANT WAS CHARGED WITH ONE COUNT OF POSSESSION OF COCAINE, ONE COUNT OF POSSESSION OF LESS THAN 20 GRAMS OF CANNABIS AND THREE COUNTS OF POSSESSION OF PARAPHERNALIA. DEPUTY VIGGIANO ISSUED THE DEFENDANT A UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION NUMBER 4562GQF1 FOR UNKNOWINGLY DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED DRIVER'S LICENSE. THE DEFENDANT'S BOND WAS SET AT $3,250.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE.
