| Probable cause affidavit: | SUBMITTED By: GREATREX, ROBERT 0287 (AR10114577) did unlawfully traffic in or endeavor to traffic in property that THE DEFENDANT knew or should have known was stolen, to-wit: ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS, the property of THE VICTIM, in violation of Florida STATE Statute 812.019. DID UNLAWFULLY AND KNOWINGLY OBTAIN OR USE, OR ENDEAVOR TO OBTAIN OR USE THE PROPERTY OF THE VICTIM, TO WIT: ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS, SAID PROPERTY BEING OF A VALUE OF $30.00 AFTER RECYCLING, WITH THE INTENT TO EITHER TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY DEPRIVE THE VICTIM OF A RIGHT TO THE PROPERTY OR A BENEFIT THEREOF, OR DID APPROPRIATE THE SAID PROPERTY TO HIS OWN USE OR THE USE OF ANY PERSON NOT ENTITLED THERETO, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATE STATUTE 812.014(3)(A). ON 042910 AT APPROXIMATELY 1100 HOURS, I RESPONDED TO THE ADDRESS OF THE DEFENDANT, WHICH IS 9989 NORTH DUNEDIN ROAD IN DUNNELLON. I WAS EN ROUTE TO THIS RESIDENCE TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THIS CASE. THE COMPLAINANT/WITNESS ADVISED THAT ON 041810 AT APPROXIMATELY 1600 HOURS THAT THE DEFENDANT RESPONDED TO HIS RESIDENCE ON SOUTH COLUMBUS STREET IN BEVERLY HILLS. THE COMPLAINANT/WITNESS STATED HE WAS TRYING TO GET HIM TO TAKE HIM TO THE METAL RECYCLING COMPANY IN INVERNESS TO GET RID OF SOME ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS HE FOUND IN THE WOODS IN LECANTO. THE COMPLAINANT/WITNESS STATED THAT HE ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF THE WINDOWS WERE STOLEN AND HE STATED THEY WERE AND WHEN THE DEFENDANT TOLD HIM THAT HE DID NOT WANT ANY PART OF HELPING HIM TAKE THE WINDOWS TO THE RECYCLING COMPANY. THE COMPLAINANT/WITNESS STATED THAT THE DEFENDANT STATED HE GOT THE ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS FROM AN OLD ABANDONED HOUSE AT THE END OF WEST FENNESSY LANE WHICH IS NEXT TO LEAPEER AIR-CONDITIONING AT THAT TIME, I DID HAVE THE COMPLAINANT/WITNESS FILL OUT A SWORN WRITTEN STATEMENT. HE STATED HE DID NOT SEE THE ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS AND ASSUMED HE HAD THEM STORED IN AN UNKNOWN LOCATION. AT THAT TIME, I THEN RESPONDED TO 3775 WEST FENNESSY LANE WHERE THE ALLEGED CRIME OCCURRED. UPON ARRIVAL, I DID LOCATE THE RESIDENCE WHICH WAS APPROXIMATELY A QUARTER MILE OFF OF 491 IN A WOODED AREA. THE HOUSE WAS WHAT APPEARED TO BE A TWO BEDROOM, ONE BATH HOME, WITH A FLORIDA ROOM ADDITION ON THE SIDE. THE HOME WAS COMPLETELY RANSACKED AND APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. APPROXIMATELY 12 OF THE 15 WINDOWS OF THE RESIDENCE WERE REMOVED FROM THE HOUSE. IT APPEARED THE DEFENDANT USED SOME TYPE OF PRY TOOL TO REMOVE THE WINDOWS AND WAS NOT VERY NEAT AND ORDERLY WHEN DOING SO. THERE WAS BROKEN GLASS AND OTHER PIECES OF ALUMINUM SCATTERED IN THE FRONT YARD. AT THAT TIME, I DID TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE RESIDENCE ALONG WITH A FEW OF THE EXISTING ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS. I FOUND SOME BEER CANS AND A METAL PIPE WHICH WAS POSSIBLY USED BY THE DEFENDANT. THESE ITEMS WERE TURNED IN TO EVIDENCE. ON 042810 AT APPROXIMATELY 0900 HOURS, I RESPONDED TO THE INTER-COUNTY RECYCLING COMPANY IN INVERNESS WHERE I MADE CONTACT WITH AN EMPLOYEE. I ADVISED THE EMPLOYEE I WAS DOING INVESTIGATION ON THIS CASE AND NEEDED TO KNOW IF THE DEFENDANT WAS AT THEIR PLACE OF BUSINESS ANYTIME IN THE LAST WEEK SCRAPPING OUT ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS. THE EMPLOYEE AT THAT TIME DID PROVIDE ME WITH TICKET NUMBER 30854 WHICH DID SHOW THAT MR JAMES RICHARD SPINDLER JR WAS AT THEIR PLACE OF BUSINESS ON 042010. THE TICKET DID SHOW WHERE MR SPINDLER SCRAPPED OUT 102 POUNDS IRONY/LITE ALUMINUM ALONG WITH 19 POUNDS OF RAW ALUMINUM. VALUE OF THE COMBINED ALUMINUM WAS $30.66 AFTER IT WAS SCRAPPED. THIS RECYCLING CENTER ALSO HAD AN OUTSIDE CAMERA VIDEO OF THE DEFENDANT STANDING IN THE PARKING LOT. THEY ALSO HAVE A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS IN A LARGE PILE. THE DEFENDANT DID SIGN A RECEIPT AND PROVIDED A RIGHT THUMB PRINT SHOWING THAT HE DID EXCHANGE THE MATERIAL FOR MONEY AT THE RECYCLING CENTER. THIS ALL TOOK PLACE ON 04210 AT 1341 HOURS. THE RECYCLING COMPANY DID PROVIDE COPIES OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS AND ALL TRANSACTIONS. ON 042910, AFTER INVESTIGATION WAS COMPLETED, I THEN RESPONDED TO THE DEFENDANT'S ADDRESS AT 9989 NORTH DUNEDIN ROAD. I FIRST MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT AND ADVISED HIM I WAS INVESTIGATING THIS REPORT ALONG WITH CASE NUMBER 10040911. THE DEFENDANT STATED THAT HE DID SCRAP OUT SEVERAL ALUMINUM FRAME WINDOWS THAT HE FOUND IN AN OLD ABANDONED HOME OFF OF FENNESSY LANE. HE STATED HIS SISTER LIVES OFF FENNESSY LANE IN LECANTO AND HE FOUND THE RESIDENCE AS HE WAS WALKING THROUGH THE WOODS. HE STATED HE HAD SOME ITEMS TO SCRAP AT THE RECYCLING AND REMEMBERED THAT THE OLD FRAME WINDOWS WERE AT THE RESIDENCE. THE DEFENDANT STATED HE DID NOT ASK PERMISSION FROM ANYONE AND DOES NOT KNOW WHO OWNS THE RESIDENCE. HE THOUGHT IT WAS ABANDONED AND THAT HE COULD TAKE THE ALUMINUM. AT THAT TIME, I ADVISED THE DEFENDANT THAT THE PROPERTY WAS NOT HIS TO TAKE AND AT THIS TIME, HE WOULD BE PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR ONE COUNT OF THEFT AND ONE COUNT OF DEALING IN STOLEN PROPERTY. HE WAS HANDCUFFED (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND THE BACK AND TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY. HE WAS PROCESSED IN AND HIS BOND WAS SET AT $5,000 FOR DEALING IN STOLEN PROPERTY AND $500 FOR THE THEFT. *NOT-EXEMPT* |
