| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: MACIAS, JOSEPH 0756 (AR13-7326) DID, KNOWING her DRIVERâS LICENSE OR DRIVING PRIVILEGE HAD BEEN CANCELLED, SUSPENDED OR REVOKED, DRIVE A MOTOR VEHICLE UPON THE HIGHWAYS OF THIS STATE WHILE SUCH LICENSE OR PRIVILEGE WAS CANCELLED, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE NUMBER 322.34(2). ON 091713, AT APPROXIMATELY 1424 HOURS, I INITIATED A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE DEFENDANT, MS CASSANDRA BRENNAN, AFTER THE SHERIFFâS OFFICE WAS NOTIFIED BY THE DEFENDANTâS MOTHER THAT she WAS DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED DRIVERâS LICENSE. THE DEFENDANT WAS DRIVING 2003 SILVER IN COLOR MITSUBISHI BEARING FLORIDA TAG NUMBER 418-KCK. MY TRAFFIC STOP WAS CONDUCTED AT THE INTERSECTION OF SOUTH MAGPIE POINT AND EAST RODGLYN LANE IN FLORAL CITY. WHEN I APPROACHED THE VEHICLE, I ASKED MS BRENNAN FOR HER DRIVERâS LICENSE, REGISTRATION AND PROOF OF INSURANCE, TO WHICH SHE PROVIDED. I THEN ASKED MS BRENNAN TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE, TO WHICH SHE COMPLIED. I ASKED MS BRENNAN IF SHE KNEW HER DRIVERâS LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED, TO WHICH SHE STATED She DID NOT know HER DRIVERâS LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED, AND CONTINUED TO INSIST THAT I HAD PULLED HER OVER FOR NO REASON. I NOTIFIED MS BRENNAN THAT I HAD RECEIVED KNOWLEDGE HER DRIVERâS LICENSE HAD BEEN SUSPENDED. I ALSO INFORMED HER THAT I HAD CONFIRMED HER DRIVERâS LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED THROUGH OUR DISPATCH. WHILE DISCUSSING THIS FURTHER, I ASKED MS BRENNAN WHEN SHE HAD RECEIVED HER LETTER NOTIFYING HER, HER LICENSE HAD BEEN SUSPENDED. SHE ADVISED IT HAS BEEN AWHILE AGO. MS BRENNAN THEN SAID, âACTUALLY, NO WAIT. I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS GOING TO BE SUSPENDED YET.â AT THAT TIME, MS BRENNAN ADMITTED TO DRIVING WITH A SUSPENDED LICENSE. I PLACED THE DEFENDANT UNDER ARREST. SHE WAS HANDCUFFED BEHIND HER BACK (DOUBLE LOCKED) AND SEATED IN the REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE, AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING. DEFENDANT BRENNAN WAS CITED FOR DRIVING WHILE LICENSE SUSPENDED AND ISSUED CITATION NUMBER 5047-GZP5. PRIOR TO LEAVING THE SCENE, THE DEFENDANTâS VEHICLE WAS TURNED OVER TO HER MOTHER, PER THE DEFENDANTâS REQUEST. ONCE AT the DETENTION FACILITY, THE DEFENDANT WAS ARRESTED FOR ONE COUNT DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED LICENSE, WITH KNOWLEDGE, AND HER BOND SET AT $500.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
