UPON ARRIVAL IN THE AREA DEPUTY STRICKLAND LOCATED THE FEMALE WALKING BE ON WEST OAKLAWN STREET AND SOUTH INZITARI POINT. CONTACT WAS MADE WITH THE FEMALE WHO ADVISED SHE HAD BEEN DRINKING VODKA AT A FRIENDâS RESIDENCE, AND THE HEAT FROM THE SUN WAS BEGINNING TO DOUBLE THE EFFECTS. SHE ADVISED SHE WAS TIRED AND SAT DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND BUGS BEGAN TO CRAWL ON HER, SO SHE GOT UP AND CONTINUED TO WALK. DEPUTY STRICKLAND ASKED FOR THE DEFENDANTâS IDENTIFICATION AND SHE ADVISED DEPUTY STRICKLAND THAT IT WAS IN HER PURSE. HE REMOVED A KENTUCKY DRIVER'S LICENSE BEARING THE DEFENDANTâS NAME, EVELYN ROWELL. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE HAD ANY DRUGS, DRUG PARAPHERNALIA, GUNS, BOMBS, OR ANY OTHER DEVICES IN HER PURSE, WHICH SHE SAID NO. INSIDE OF HER PURSE WAS A PLASTIC CONTAINER LABELED âJACK LINKS JERKYâ, I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHAT WAS INSIDE OF THE JERKY CONTAINER AND SHE SHRUGGED HER SHOULDERS. I ASKED IF I COULD CHECK AND SHE ADVISED âSURE.â UPON OPENING THE CONTAINER I OBSERVED A GREEN LEAFY SUBSTANCE THAT SMELLED OF MARIJUANA. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHAT IT WAS AND SHE ADVISED MARIJUANA. A FIELD PRODUCT TEST WAS CONDUCTED, WHICH TESTED POSITIVE FOR MARIJUANA. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION OF THE PURSE I LOCATED A BLACK EYEGLASS CASE CONTAINING ROLLING PAPERS, AN ALUMINUM FOIL BOAT, AND TWO RED STRAWS. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT WHAT THE STRAWS WERE USED FOR AND SHE ADVISED SHE USED THEM TO SNORT ADDERALL. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF SHE WAS PRESCRIBED ADDERALL AND SHE SAID SHE HAD BEEN IN THE PAST. I ASKED HER WHERE SHE GOT THE ADDERALL FROM AND SHE ADVISED A FRIEND. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT ABOUT OTHER STREET LEVEL DRUGS, TO WHICH SHE DENIED ANY KNOWLEDGE OR USE OF ANY OTHER DRUGS. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED SHE SMOKED THE MARIJUANA FOR PAIN AND THAT âIT WAS GOING TO BE LEGAL SOON, SO IT WAS NO BIG DEAL.â THERE WAS RESIDUE ON THE STRAWS AND ALSO ON THE ALUMINUM FOIL BOAT, TO WHICH THE DEFENDANT ADVISED WAS ADDERALL. I DID NOT HAVE A TEST KIT FOR THAT SUBSTANCE AT THAT TIME. THE DEFENDANT WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND THE BACK AND ADVISED THAT SHE WAS UNDER ARREST FOR POSSESSION OF MARIJUANA AND POSSESSION OF PARAPHERNALIA. SHE WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY BY DEPUTY WATTS (1299) FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANTâS BOND WAS SET AT $2,500.00, PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. |
