On April 14th, 2024, Florida Fish and Wildlife officers were on water patrol in Martin County when they observed a personal watercraft violating the Manatee Slow Speed Zone. On approach to the jet ski, the vessel dumped a cooler containing 20 full beers into the water. How's it going? Is that your stuff you dropped? Okay, you can pick it up if you want. Yeah, the other part of it's sinking back there. You're also getting pulled over because this is a slow speed zone and you're up on plane. You can pick up your stuff and then come talk to us. All right, your other piece of it is just straight ahead from you. It's gray floating on the surface. Yeah, go get it. Boot off. All right, go ahead and grab this. Go under the, go under. Okay, we're all good. Thank you. Okay, okay, we're all good. I appreciate it. Yep. Thank you. Keep your phone on. So go around the steering wheel and come back to me. All of your guys' beers are floating west of us. All right, so I'm gonna have to go get those. Yeah, we're gonna have to go get the beers. What? They're in the river. Okay, you got a bunch of empties floating here. Yeah, we do. Okay, you have your registration? Yes, and I wasn't drinking. They had one or two. You had zero to drink today? Zero. Okay, you mind if I check your eyes quick? You had zero, right? Okay, look at the tip of the pen. Okay, well, I'm just checking it. That's fine. No problem. Do any drugs today or anything? No. Okay. Done any drugs in the last 24 hours? No, I have my medical card. Okay, did you do any of that? No. Okay, I'm gonna be able to tell. I'm gonna do a test right here. So you didn't, all right? Why would you do a test? Because I'm gonna do a test with your eyes and I'm gonna be able to determine whether you did or not. Are you telling me you didn't or did? Earlier I hit my pen. Okay, today? Earlier today. Okay. Not like hours before I went on the jet ski. Okay, what time was that? Like nine. Okay, what time is it now? Don't look. Don't look. Like 1 30. Okay, okay. All right. All right, I am seeing some signs in your eyes. Okay, I'm on a separate boat than you. The boats are moving different. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and have you step over here so we can check on the same boat. Okay, so just secure your phone up there. Secure whatever you need. I didn't even mean to do anything. Okay, if you want, I can put your phone here if you want. So I don't want you to drop it. Okay, you're gonna have to untether that. You're tethered to the jet ski. Okay. All right, just go up in the front there and sit in front of the right here. Please sit straight at the front edge of your seat. Put your arms down at your side. Place your feet shoulder width apart so you're comfortable and stable. Are you stable? Are you doing what I said? Okay, you're gonna pay attention here. Okay, keep your arms down on your sides. Okay, do not move your feet until the tasks are over. Stay in this position and do not do anything else until I tell you to do so. Do you understand? I'm gonna check your eyes again. So again, I want you to hold your head still. Don't move your head. Only move your eyes. Keep your eye on the tip of the pen. I'm gonna do two circles and then I'm gonna bring the tip of the pen. I'm gonna make a fist with both hands. Extend your index finger and turn your palms forward. When I say begin, tilt your head back to about a 45 degree angle and close your eyes. So I'm not gonna shut my eyes, but no, not right now. Just listen right now. Okay, it's about a 45 degree angle and shut your eyes. Okay, when I tell you to begin, I want you to do that. Okay, when I tell you to touch the tip of your nose with the tip of your index finger and immediately return it to your side. This is the tip of your finger. That's the pad of your finger. These are the sides of your finger. This is the tip of your nose. That's the bridge of your nose. These are the sides of your nose. So you're gonna touch the tip of your finger to the tip of your nose. Okay, begin. No, I have to tell you left or right, okay? I thought you said right first. I said, I'll tell you when I say right, you're right. When I say left, you're left, okay? Okay, all right, so go ahead and begin. All right, put your fingers back out. Remember, okay? All right, left. You have to give me that. Like I am. And you immediately return it to your side, okay? Right, and immediately bring it down to your side without me telling you, okay? No, it's not. Uh, nope. Left. Okay, bring it down by yourself, okay? Right. And you got to bring it down by yourself, okay? Bring it down without me telling you. You need to. That was part of the instruction, okay? Right. Left. Okay, the next is called the palm pad, okay? Place your hands palm to palm with one hand up and one hand down, okay? Just like this. One hand up and one like this. Keep your hand parallel, just like that, okay? Remain in this position while I explain the task, you understand? When I tell you to begin, turn your top hand over and count out loud one. Then turn your hand back over and count out loud two, counting only when your hands make contact. You know, count out loud one, two, one, two, one, two, okay? Repeat this. Speed up as you go and do not stop until told. Make sure to keep your hands and fingers parallel during each pat. 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2. When I say begin you must perform 4 tasks. The first task is to count out loud from 1 to 4 while moving your fist in a step-like fashion, making contact between your fists on each step. So you're going to be here, you're going to go one, two, three, four, counting out loud and making contact. The second task is to memorize the position of your fist when you have counted to four, clap your hands three times and return your fist to the memorized position. So I'm going to show you, you're going to be out here, you're going to clap out loud, one, two, three, and then put your hands back at that position you were out here. The third task is to move your fists in a step-like fashion in reverse order, counting out loud from five to eight and returning your left fist to your chest. So you're going to be out here after you clap, five, six, seven, eight, and then wherever you are just return your left fist to your chest. One, two, three, four, and then go one, two, three, four again, five, six, seven, eight. On the way out it's one, two, three, four, and then on the back you're, yep, yep. And then just make sure you return that left fist to your chest. The fourth task is to open your hands and place your palms down on your lap. Do you understand? Yeah. Okay, go ahead and begin. Okay. One, two, three, four, one, two, three, five, six, seven, eight. Is that correct? Some of it. I'm going to have you do one more task, okay? Here's what I want you to do. I'm going to have you tilt your head back and close your eyes, okay? When you do that, I want you to estimate the passage of thirty seconds. When you think thirty seconds has passed, I want you to look forward and open up your eyes, okay? Oh my goodness. Okay? Okay. Good. Close? Twenty-eight? Thirty-eight. Thirty-eight? Yep. Go ahead and stand up. Turn around and put your hands behind your back. Why? Because you are operating a vessel intoxicated, okay? I am not intoxicated. Okay. Just because you prescribed something doesn't mean you can take it to the point where you're intoxicated. Alright, so she has her cell phone there? I'm not leaving my friends. I will get my stuff. Okay. This is my $10,000 vessel. We will get it for you and we'll make sure it's... No, you will not. I will start to get really angry. Okay, it's fine if you get angry. Please call my mom. No, no. I'm sorry. Sit down, sit down. I did all of your tests correct. I did it? You didn't pass them, no. Yes, I did. Okay. We're on a moving boat. How do you expect me to be like completely... Look right here. Look right here. I have this camera. That's fine. They're all recorded. That's fine. That's okay. Okay. Alright, so we're going to grab whatever you'd like off of the jet ski. Okay? So go ahead and tell me what you'd like. Do you have shoes on there? Does she have shoes there? Yeah. Do you want to throw those over on the boat so I can have her wear those? So we're taking her to Mount Martin County Jail, okay? I suggest you don't have her go there. She can go there, but she won't be able to see her right away. She will be able to make a phone call and can call her. Alright, so let's start from the beginning. So the reason for the stop was stuff fell off your jet ski and then you went up on plane, okay? This is a slow speed zone here, minimum wake, okay? Yes. That's the reason for the stop. Can I just tell you why I did? Sure. I'm not going to say it in front of them, but I have two larger girls on the boat, so I felt like I was taking on a lot of water, so I started to go plane, and then boom. Okay, I'm just telling you why we stopped you. Okay, and then for my, you say that I'm intoxicated, I did just start new anxiety medicine, so that could be why. Okay, so here's what I'm going to do when we get to the jail. I have to give everyone the right to a breath test, okay? Okay. If you haven't drunken, take that and you'll blow zeroes, right? I'm going to also offer you a urine test. If that shows everything you were prescribed, you can use that in court however you'd like, okay? So that's how the proceedings go, okay? So we're going to go. What if I decline to vote? You don't have to, there's a form I'm going to read you when we get to the jail. I'll let you look at it. Just because I don't feel like. Okay, it's got a bunch of language in there, I'll let you. I just like to tell people from the start, that way they have some time to think about it. When we get back to the jail, we're going to go in the jail, they're going to check you. I'll explain how the whole thing is going to go. We're going to take you off the jet ski, we're going to put your shoes on, your shirt on, take the life vest off, okay? We're going to go take the truck to Martin County Jail, okay? When we get there, I'm going to take you out. They're going to check you medically. It's just a nurse is going to come talk to you and make sure you have no medical issues. They're going to probably ask you if you have COVID, check your temperature, that kind of thing, okay? After that, they're going to walk in, walk you in, they're going to take your belongings, whatever you have with you. You have the life jacket, your phone, that kind of stuff. After that, you're going to go into a room with me where the breath test machine is, okay? I'm going to have a form. I'm going to read you the form. I'll let you look at it, okay? And you can make a decision whether you'd like to provide a breath sample. Whether or whether not, if you give the breath sample, I'm still going to ask for urine. If you take it, I'm still, if you take it or not, I'm still going to ask you for urine. And then you can make a decision if you're going to give that, okay? Does that make sense? Okay. And there are civil penalties to the refusal. I believe it's $500. So what it, what it'll be is like another ticket. So if you refuse to take one, okay, I, I, I, I truly believe it's marijuana. I believe you just, you've overindulged in that and that's still, that's still illegal. Okay. Well, I believe it's the marijuana. I believe you've overindulged in that because it's still illegal. It's still, I didn't do it for hours. Okay. Okay. I did it earlier this morning. I prescribed it for my anxiety. I just started doing anxiety medicine. Just because you're prescribed something doesn't mean you can take it and operate a vessel or vehicle. No, I get that. And that's why I did it for hours before I went on. Okay. All right. Well, that's what the, the urine test will check. That kind of stuff. It'll check whatever is. I mean, urine, we've marijuana seized in your system for 30 days. Right, exactly. But if you took other stuff, it'll, it's up to you if you want to do that or not. How do they prescribe the marijuana? Is it all like a, it's like a vape thing or? Okay. And you, do you have the prescriptions with you or anything? Okay. In your wallet? Yep. Okay. It's, it's legal. I didn't, I did not hit it before I came on. A doctor can prescribe it to you. Right. But if you're intoxicated with it, you cannot operate. Okay. How do you quantify how much you take? Okay. So how much do you normally take? Okay. Okay. And how many did you take this morning? Okay. I'd have to check my video, but I believe you said two before. Stand up. Can you fix my hair, please? Yep. Just get it out of my head. Okay. Okay. Put your left foot up on the, or however you think you're. Yeah. Watch your head. Perfect. All right. Okay. All right. You can take that off her if you want. You can take off your. Can I just keep it on? Yeah. We do have that shirt if you want to put it on. Oh, yeah, I do have your shirt on there. Okay. Or you can just keep that on. It's up to you. Can I just keep it on? Okay. All right. My shoes are kind of slippery. Okay. I don't want to slip. Nope, just watch out for your head. Okay. All right. According to the report, the woman was charged with boating under the influence, littering, failure to submit a breath and urine sample, and a manatee violation as well as a lifejacket violation.
