ON 051710 AT APPROXIMATELY 2330 HOURS, I OBSERVED A BLACK CHEVROLET TWO DOOR VEHICLE RUN THE STOP SIGN AT SOUTH MANATEE TERRACE AND WEST VILLAGE DRIVE. AT THAT TIME, I PERFORMED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE AT THE INTERSECTION OF US HIGHWAY 19 AND SOUTH SUFFOLK TERRACE. DEPUTY SEFFERN ARRIVED ON SCENE WITH ME. WE APPROACHED THE VEHICLE WITH DEPUTY SEFFERN MAKING CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I MADE CONTACT WITH THE DRIVER AND ADVISED HIM WHO I WAS AND WHY I HAD STOPPED HIM. DEPUTY SEFFERN ASKED THE DEFENDANT, MR WILLIAM STEED, TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE. DEPUTY SEFFERN ADVISED THAT WHILE I WAS SPEAKING WITH THE DRIVER, THE DEFENDANT WAS BRUSHING SOME MARIJUANA FROM HIS LAP ON TO THE FLOORBOARD OF THE VEHICLE. THE MARIJUANA WAS COLLECTED AND IT APPEARED TO BE UNUSUALLY WET. I READ THE DEFENDANT HIS MIRANDA WARNINGS VIA MY PRE-PRINTED AGENCY CARD AND ASKED HIM IF HE UNDERSTOOD HIS RIGHTS, TO WHICH HE REPLIED HE DID. I THEN ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE WISHED TO SPEAK WITH ME, TO WHICH HE REPLIED HE WOULD. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT HE HAD ATTEMPTED TO EAT THE MARIJUANA; HOWEVER, HAD STOPPED AND TRIED TO BRUSH IT ON THE FLOOR.
