THIS DEPUTY THEN MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT/DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE AND ASKED IF AT THE END OF DEPUTY MELHADO'S TRAFFIC STOP THE DEFENDANT WOULD PROVIDE THESE DEPUTIES WITH CONSENT TO SEARCH HIS VEHICLE FOR ANY CONTRABAND, TO WHICH THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THAT THESE DEPUTIES COULD AND THAT HE DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE DEFENDANT'S PUPILS WERE EXTREMELY DILATED AND HE WAS SWEATING PROFUSELY WHILE THIS DEPUTY WAS TALKING TO HIM. AT THAT TIME I ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO STEP OUT OF THE VEHICLE SO THAT DEPUTY MELHADO COULD ISSUE THE WARNING TICKET FOR NO TAG LIGHTS, AND GIVE BACK THE DEFENDANT'S LICENSE, REGISTRATION AND PROOF OF INSURANCE. AT THAT TIME ONCE THE DEFENDANT HAD ALL OF HIS INFORMATION BACK IN HIS POSSESSION I THEN AGAIN ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF THESE DEPUTIES HAD CONSENT TO SEARCH HIS VEHICLE FOR ANY CONTRABAND, TO WHICH THE DEFENDANT THEN AGAIN ADVISED THAT THESE DEPUTIES DID HAVE CONSENT TO SEARCH. . AT THAT TIME THIS DEPUTY BEGAN TO SEARCH THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE FOR ANY ILLEGAL CONTRABAND TO WHICH THIS DEPUTY OBSERVED A GREEN LEAFY SUBSTANCE LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR BOARD, WITH A PACK OF ROLLING PAPERS LOCATED NEXT TO IT. I THEN PRESENTED THIS SUBSTANCE TO THE DEFENDANT TO WHICH HE ADVISED THAT THE SUBSTANCE WAS MARIJUANA AND THAT HE DID NOT KNOW THAT IT WAS THERE. THIS DEPUTY THEN ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF THERE WAS ANYMORE NARCOTICS LOCATED INSIDE OF HIS VEHICLE, TO WHICH HE ADVISED THAT THERE WAS APPROXIMATELY AN OUNCE OF MARIJUANA LOCATED UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE. I THEN ADVISED THE DEFENDANT TO SHOW THIS DEPUTY EXACTLY WHERE THE NARCOTICS WERE LOCATED, TO WHICH HE DID. THE DEFENDANT ADVISED THIS DEPUTY THAT THE NARCOTICS WERE LOCATED IN THE FUSE BOX LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. AT THAT TIME THIS DEPUTY THEN OPENED THE COMPARTMENT AND LOCATED TWO CLEAR BAGS WITH A GREEN LEAFY SUBSTANCE CONTAINED INSIDE. I ALSO LOCATED A SMALL HAND ROLLED JOINT, AND TWO PACKS OF ROLLING PAPERS. AT THAT TIME THIS DEPUTY THEN OPENED THE ROLLING PAPER PACKS AND OBSERVED ANOTHER CLEAR BAG CONTAINING THREE BLUE IN COLOR ROUND PILLS THAT WERE BROKEN IN HALF. POISON CONTROL WAS CONTACTED IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY THE PILLS TO WHICH POISON CONTROL ADVISED THAT THE PILLS WERE OXYCODONE AT 30 MILLIGRAMS PER PILL. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THESE PILLS ARE SCHEDULE TWO NARCOTICS AND WERE NOT PRESCRIBED TO THE DEFENDANT. AT THAT TIME THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN PLACED UNDER ARREST HANDCUFFED BEHIND HIS BACK (DOUBLE LOCKED) AND SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORT. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING A PROCESSING. THE DEFENDANT'S TOTAL BOND WAS SET AT $10,000.00 DOLLARS PER THE BOND SCHEDULE.
