| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED BY: ATCHISON, GARY 0043 (AR08102524) did unlawfully and from a premeditated design to effect the death of THE VICTIM, a human being, kill and murder the said VICTIM by STABBING THE VICTIM NUMEROUS TIMES, in violation of Florida Statute 782.04(1)(a)1, ON 040308, OFFICERS FROM THIS AGENCY RESPONDED TO THE VICTIM'S RESIDENCE LOCATED AT 5 LOBELIA COURT IN HOMOSASSA IN REFERENCE TO A WELL-BEING CHECK WHICH WAS CALLED IN BY THE VICTIM'S CO-WORKERS WHO STATED THE VICTIM HAD NOT BEEN TO WORK TODAY AND THAT NO ONE COULD MAKE CONTACT WITH HER. COMPLAINANTS ALSO ADVISED THAT THE DEFENDANT IS AN EX-HUSBAND TO THE VICTIM AND KNEW THAT THE VICTIM HAD BEEN SEEING THE DEFENDANT SOME AND THAT SHE HAS COME IN TO WORK WITH MARKS ON HER FACE. DEPUTIES ADVISED THAT ONCE ON THE SCENE AND LOOKING INTO THE WINDOWS OF THE RESIDENCE, THEY OBSERVED A WHITE MALE ATTEMPTING TO HIDE IN THE CLOSET OF THE RESIDENCE. OTHER DEPUTIES ATTEMPTED SEVERAL TIMES WITH A LOUD SPEAKER TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE SUBJECT INSIDE OF THE RESIDENCE WHICH MET WITH NEGATIVE RESULTS. THE SHERIFF'S EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM (S.E.R.T). MEMBERS THEN FORCEFULLY ENTERED THE RESIDENCE AT APPROXIMATELY 1500 HOURS. UPON ENTERING THE SOUTHWEST BEDROOM, THEY OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT LAYING ON TOP OF THAT OF THE VICTIM WHO WAS DECEASED AND COVERED WITH A BLANKET. I ENTERED THE RESIDENCE ALONG WITH EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS) IN WHICH THEY PRONOUNCED THE VICTIM DECEASED. I OBSERVED A LARGE AMOUNT OF BLOOD AROUND THE VICTIM'S UPPER BODY AND HEAD. I THEN OBSERVED A VERY LARGE CHROME COLORED KNIFE LYING ON THE BED WITH BLOOD ON THE KNIFE. A MEMBER OF S.E.R.T. ADVISED THAT A BROWN HANDLED POCKET KNIFE LYING ON THE FLOOR IN THE BEDROOM WAS TAKEN FROM THE DEFENDANT. I EXITED THE RESIDENCE, SECURING IT UNTIL A SEARCH WARRANT COULD BE OBTAINED. I WENT TO THE LOCATION WHERE THE DEFENDANT WAS SITTING IN THE REAR SEAT OF A PATROL VEHICLE. THE DEFENDANT TOLD ME THAT HE WANTED A PICTURE OUT OF HIS WALLET OF THE VICTIM. AT THAT TIME, I OBTAINED THE PICTURE AND IN THE PRESENCE OF COMMANDER WAYNE BURNS, I READ THE DEFENDANT HIS MIRANDA WARNING FROM A MIRANDA WARNING CARD, TO WHICH THE DEFENDANT ACKNOWLEDGED TO BOTH OF US THAT HE UNDERSTOOD HIS RIGHTS AND THAT HE WOULD SPEAK TO US. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHAT HAPPENED, AT WHICH TIME HE ADVISED HE "JUST WENT NUTS." I THEN ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE STABBED THE VICTIM WITH THE KNIFE ON THE BED OR THE POCKET KNIFE OTHER OFFICERS TOOK OUT OF HIS POCKET. HE STATED THAT IT WAS THE KNIFE ON THE BED. I ASKED HIM WHERE ON THE VICTIM'S BODY HE STABBED HER, TO WHICH HE STATED "I STABBED HER A LOT." THE DEFENDANT ADVISED HE WANTED THE PICTURE IN HIS POCKET AND HE WOULD TALK TO ME MORE AT THE JAIL. DEPUTY AIDAN MARSHALL TRANSPORTED THE DEFENDANT TO THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE OPERATION'S CENTER IN INVERNESS. UPON ARRIVAL AT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE, DEPUTY MARSHALL ADVISED THIS DETECTIVE THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD MADE SEVERAL STATEMENTS TO HIM: "TELL THE DETECTIVE I DID IT;" "STOP BY MY HOUSE UP HERE AND GET ME SOME CLOTHES 'CAUSE I HAVE HER BLOOD ALL OVER ME;" "I DID SOMETHING STUPID. IS SHE GOING TO BE OKAY?;" "CHECK OUT THE VAN IN THE GARAGE. THAT'S WHY I SNAPPED;" "THIS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHIT FINALLY CAUGHT UP TO ME;" "I THINK SHE'S DEAD." THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN PLACED INTO AN INTERVIEW ROOM AND UNDER AUDIO INTERVIEW I READ THE DEFENDANT HIS MIRANDA WARNINGS FROM A MIRANDA CARD AGAIN AND ASKED HIM IF HE ACKNOWLEDGED. AT THIS TIME, THE DEFENDANT ADVISED ME HE KNEW I READ HIM HIS RIGHTS EARLIER. THE DEFENDANT STATED HE FELT HIS EX-WIFE/GIRLFRIEND WAS CHEATING ON HIM AND WANTED TO KNOW WHOSE VAN WAS IN THE GARAGE. AFTER ANOTHER BRIEF CONVERSATION, THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT HE DID NOT WANT TO TALK ANYMORE AND WANTED A LAWYER. AT THAT TIME, THE DEFENDANT WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY AND BOOKED ON THE ABOVE CHARGE. *not-EXEMPT* |
