Major Frank Losat

2008 E. 81 Avenue
Tampa, Florida 33605
VIA Email: FlosatnaHCSO. Tampa.FL. US
RE: Investigation of March 26, 2019 shooting
Dear Major Losat,
Please find the attached statement from my client, Deputy Daniel Estanislau, regarding the March
26, 2019 shooting of a domestic violence suspect. In addition to the summary of events from the
perspective of Deputy Estanislau, I also wanted to provide your office additional information that
supports our position that this shooting was justified.
The cell phone the suspect held certainly could appear to be a firearm under the circumstances in
this case. It was being held in a manner consistent with a firearm. It was in an area where
individuals carry firearms. It was of a color consistent with a firearm. It was partially concealed.
The fact that Deputy Estanislau immediately verbalized commands to " drop the gun" shows he
believed the suspect had a gun. The fact that his disposition went from trying to calm the suspect
to suddenly becoming alarmed and drawing his gun shows he truly feared what he was faced with.
Significantly, Deputy Estanislau described the cell phone dropped by the suspect as having a
stand" on the back of the phone and that stand was in the " open" position. It is unusual for a
person to cant' a cell phone with the stand in an open position. Stands are meant to prop up a cell
phone on a table or other surface. No one normally carries a cell phone in their waistband or in
their hand with the stand extended.
While a cell phone without a stand attached, or without a stand open, can still be perceived as a
gunl, the stand being open in this case changes the entire profile of a normal cell phone. It further
reinforces Deputy Estanislau' s belief that the suspect was holding a firearm.
I In February this year, FDLE and prosecutors cleared Cocoa Police Officer Xzevies Baez for shooting a man
running towards his vehicle carrying a cell phone. The officer fired at the man six times through his vehicle window
because the officer saw "a black object in his hand" that the man was " about to lift it up ... and that' s when I believe
I was going to be shot at." And it is not just law enforcement mistaking cell phones for firearms. See
htlpsJ/ www fox2lnews wm/ news/ local/ police- called- after- cell- phone- mistaken- for- kun/ 1464604306 ( several
man with a
gun on his hip; it was a large black cell phone).
I understand that your agency has certain duties to not release information during an investigation.
And I understand that the media only can report what information it receives in writing a story.
But the public report that " no weapon was found" in this case unfortunately I believe has created
the impression that nothing was found to explain why the deputy thought the suspect had a gun.
We know the cell phone was on the suspect and that the deputy did not fire his weapon for no
reason. I would anticipate your investigation will confirm this important evidence.
The lighting conditions for Deputy Estanislau to assess this threat were less than ideal. This call
for service reportedly came around 7:45 p.m. and Deputy Estanislau arrived on scene thereafter. I
have attached to this email the U. S. Naval Observatory Sun and Moon Data for Tampa on March
26, 2019. Sunset occurred that day at 7: 44 p. m., before Deputy Estanislau had contact with the
suspect. Civil twilight ended at 8: 08 p. m. Thus, the contact between Deputy Estanislau and the
suspect occurred as dusk was phasing to darkness.
The complaint against the suspect was for violence against his own family, including apparently
striking his own mother. Whether the call alleged a weapon was involved or not does not eliminate
the potential threat that the suspect could be armed. A traffic stop for a simple taillight infraction
has no indication anyone is armed, yet officers still approach that vehicle with an eye towards
assessing that threat, often with one hand on or near their service weapon. Deputy Estanislau knew
he was going to be involved with a person accused of violence against his own family, and that
backdrop to this call matters in assessing the split second decisions he had to make.
Deputy Estanislau has exhibited a history of restraint in using deadly force despite circumstances
that could have warranted it.
In Deputy Estanislau' s performance evaluation review in his personnel file, it was noted that:
As reflected in his August 8, 2017, diary entry, Deputy Estanislau demonstrated poise
and restraint while responding. to a call for service involving a suspect that was
allegedly armed with two hand guns ( 17- 567330). Deputy Estanislau and Deputy
Grace responded and were able to come in contact with the suspect, detained him
without using force and determine the handguns were in fact BB guns. Deputy
Estanislau responded decisively in a critical situation and avoided making an
impulsive decision.
In October of 2018, Deputy Estanislau again exhibited significant restraint in responding to a call
at approximately 9: 52 p. m. of a female with a gun in her hand stating she was " going to shoot
someone." ( HCSO Report 2018- 714004). Upon arrival, bystanders further advised Deputy
Estanislau the female with the gun " was waving, it around."
Deputy Estanislau located the female and observed a " black in color firearm" on her waist. Deputy
Estanislau drew his weapon and advised the female to place her hands on her head, but the female
refused. The female then repeatedly placed her hands back on her waist ( which held the gun) and
into her pockets. It is not hard to envision these circumstances leading some law enforcement
officers to use deadly force when her hands went back towards the area holding the gun. A male
citizen recognized the threat Deputy Estanislau was faced with by the female' s conduct, telling the
female to listen to Deputy Estanislau' s commands or she was " going to lose her life."
2
Despite these dangerous circumstances, Deputy Estanislau showed great restraint and did not fire
his weapon. The firearm tamed out to be a BB gun. The male that witnessed the handling of this
incident stated to Deputy Rivera assisting with this call, " You guys handled that very well and I
glad you guys got here quick."
Two months later, in December 2018, Deputy Estanislau was dispatched to a domestic violence
call where a male was beating a female and had a knife in his hand ( HCSO Report 2018- 885302).
Upon arrival, witnesses pointed out the suspect and advised he had a knife in his pocket. Deputy
Estanislau drew his weapon and advised the suspect in both Spanish and English to place his hands
on a vehicle. The suspect refused, and instead started to advance on Deputy Estanislau. An
individual accused of violence with a knife on his person that charges a deputy -- despite being at
gun point — is a scenario where law enforcement officers may resort to deadly force. It takes just
a second to grab a knife to attempt to stab an officer.
Again, Deputy Estanislau avoided using deadly force. Instead, he hand -checked the suspect that
insanely chose to advance within arn' s reach of Deputy Estanislau while Deputy Estanislau had a
gun pointed at him. Upon pushing the suspect down, two knives approximately seven inches long
fell from the suspect. A witness noted he had one knife in his waistband, and one in his pocket.
This is not a deputy that has a history of being " quick on the trigger" or impulsive. Deputy
Estanislau' s history of facing threats is one of restraint. In the case currently under investigation,
Deputy Estanislau showed that same restraint. He first tried to handle the matter by calming the
suspect. He did not come out of his vehicle aggressively. He tried to simply talk to the suspect
and reason with him in a non -threatening manner. When Deputy Estanislau perceived what he
believed to be a firearm being held by the suspect, he again exercised restraint. He did not fire
immediately. He gave repeated verbal commands.
Had the suspect simply followed the commands given in this case, the outcome would have been
different. All of this could have been avoided if the suspect dropped what he was holding or moved
his hands away from the object.
If a person is carrying a cell phone and a law enforcement officer draws a weapon and verbalizes
they believe the person has a firearm, a reasonable, rational response -- at a minimum — is for the
person to move their hand away from the cell phone or drop it. It is also not unreasonable to expect
that the person would also communicate to the alarmed officer, " It' s just a cell phone, it' s not a
gun," or words to that affect. What is not rational is to ignore the officer' s commands, maintain a
position of holding the object that is a threat to the officer and then make movements with the
object that place the officer in fear of being shot.
This is a very sad incident for everyone involved. However, it is a result that the suspect could
have avoided by simply complying with Deputy Estanislau' s instructions. Thank you for taking
the time to review this. If you have any questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Is/ Stephen L. Romine

This summary statement regarding' my use of force is made to the best of my
recollection regarding a very stressful, unexpected situation.
On March 26, 2019, 1 responded to the domestic violence call. As I approached the
call address on Skipper Road, a middle- aged black malewearing glasses on a phone flagged
me down and pointed to the direction of the suspect, stating " that' s him." I turned
my marked vehicle around to make contact with the suspect. The
suspect was on foot walking away from the call address. I puled up towards the
suspect in my vehicle, parked, and exited the vehicle. I asked the suspect if I could
talk to him for a second. He indicated he did not want to talk. During my initial
observations of him,he was sidestepping, glancing back and forth, and would blade
towards me with his left shoulder. I
began to walk towards him, walking past my front bumper, advising that I just wanted
to get his statement about what happened, try to clear this up, words to that affect.
He appeared very agitated and was acting in a way that I thought he may be getting
ready to run. I was trying to calm him down, both in my tone and in my body language.
As
I walked towards him, he turned to face me. That is the first time I noticed he was
holding a black object in his waistband with his right hand. It ap eared to me to
be a gun. Based on my training and experience, it was in an area consistent where guns
are carried and the manner in which the suspect was holding the object was consistent
with holding a gun. In the split second of seeing this and believing it to be
a gun, 1 drew my weapon. I
recal shouting " drop the gun" repeatedly. I may have also told him to show me his
hands or place his hands up,but under the stress and speed of this incident 1 am not
completely sure of my exact words. The suspect did not comply with any of my commands.
Instead he kept blading towards me,still appearing agitated, looking all around,
and not dropping or moving his hand away from what I beli ved to be the gun.
While his left shoulder was bladed towards me,he then made a movement that appeared
to be positioning the gun towards me with his right hand —
inconsistent With
dropping the gun or moving his hand away from the gun. I thought 1 was about to
be shot and feared for my life. That is when 1 im ediately fired two shots.
The suspect fell backwards. The object he was holding came out of his hand and
landed on the ground. That was the first time I saw that it was a black cell phone
with a stand attached to the back. The stand was in the open position. At no time
prior to firing my weapon did I know or believe the object was a cell phone. I recall
advising dispatch shots were fired, hold station, and have EMS stage.
As soon as he fell, I ran to him. As I patted him down, I asked where he was shot.
He indicated his back, which surprised me. I knew 1 did not shoot him from behind.
I turned him over on his stomach and saw one bullet wound near his left shoulder
blade area, which was consistent with the bladed position he had been in. I did not
see an exit wound.
I put on my gloves and began to apply pressure to the wound. The suspect began
trying to get up. I kept telling him to stay down while 1 maintained pressure to the
wound. Upon Deputy Perez arriving, Quick Clot was applied to the wound. Other
deputies then took over the scene.
At no time after I made clear that I believed he had a gun did the suspect say
anything. He never dispossessed what he was holding and never put his hands up in
the air or out to the side to show he had no intention of being a threat to me or others.
Had he simply complied with my commands, dropped the object or placed his hands
away from the object, this incident would have never happened. 1 tried to diffuse
the situation from the outset and did not initiate this contact with my weapon drawn
or with any intent or desire to shoot anyone.

flagged me down and pointed to the direction of the suspect, stating " that' s him." I
turned my marked vehicle around to make contact with the suspect
The suspect was on foot walking away from the call address. 1 pulled up towards
the suspect in my vehicle, parked, and exited the vehicle. I asked the suspect if I
could talk to him for a second. He indicated he did not want to talk. During my
initial observations of him, he was sidestepping, glancing back and forth, and would
blade towards me with his left shoulder.
1 began to walk towards him, walking past my front bumper, advising that 1 just
wanted to get his statement about what happened, try to clear this up, words to that
affect. He appeared very agitated and was acting in a way that I thought he may be
getting ready to run. 1 was trying to calm him down, both in my tone and in my body
language.
As I walked towards him, he turned to face me. That is the first time 1 noticed he
was holding a black object in his waistband with his right hand. It appeared to me
to be a gun. Based on my training and experience, it was in an area consistent where
guns are carried and the manner in which the suspect was holding the object was
consistent with holding a gun. In the split second of seeing this and believing it to
be a gun, I drew my weapon.
I recall shouting " drop the gun" repeatedly. 1 may have also told him to show me
his hands or place his hands up, but under the stress and speed of this incident I am
not completely sure of my exact words. The suspect did not comply with arty of my
commands. Instead he kept blading towards me, still appearing agitated, looking all
around, and not dropping or moving his hand away from what 1 believed to be the
gun. While his left shoulder was bladed towards me, he then made a movement that
appeared to be positioning the gun towards me with his right hand — inconsistent
with dropping the gun or moving his hand away from the gun. 1 thought I was about
to be shot and feared for my life. That is when 1 immediately fired two shots.

On March 26, 2019 at 1949 hours, I responded to Skipper Rd. just west of
Four Season BL, in front of 1028 Skipper Rd, after I heard Deputy
Estanislau # 253881 voice " shots fired" over the District One Main Radio
Channel. It was daylight at the time of my response, and the weather was
clear.
Upon my arrival, I observed Deputy Estanislau, Deputy Perez # 254523, and
Deputy O' Brien # 256560, rendering aid to a black male wearing a red shirt
who was laying on the north sidewalk. The male was laying on his stomach,
with his head pointing west, and his feet pointing east. There appeared to
be blood running from the subject' s back along his right side. I observed a
black cell phone on the ground approximately two feet west of the subject' s
head. The cell phone appeared to be in a black case with a black stand
coming out of the back of the case. Deputy Richardson # 246604 approached
the subject with a medical bag, to continue rendering aid.
Multiple deputies responded to secure the scene as well as to locate

witnesses ( see supplements).
Deputy Estanislau stood up and I maintained contact with Deputy Estanislau.

Deputy Estanislau sat in the front seat of my marked patrol vehicle. I
remained in contact with Deputy Estanislau until supervisors met with him.
I took a position in my marked patrol vehicle at the intersection of

Nebraska Av N and Skipper Rd. to prevent any vehicle, bicycle, or foot
traffic from traveling east down Skipper Rd. toward the crime scene.
Detectives, crime scene, and supervisors responded to the scene.
I met with regional property manager for

Stephanie Gilmore while at my position. Gilmore advised there were no
functioning surveillance cameras in the apartment complex. I verified
Gilmore' s contact information as she advised to contact her if she can be

of any assistance to HCSO.
I remained at Nebraska Av. and Skipper Rd. until I was released from the
position at 0138 hours.

Christopher Schmid stated he and his family were located inside their residence, when the involved
shooting took place. fie also stated he was located inside his bedroom during that time, which was located near
the north end of his trailer. His wife was somewhere in the kitchen, when he overheard an unknown person
outside yell two words, followed immediately by two gunshots. Identifying the noise as gunfire, Mr. Schmid
ran outside, towards the disturbance, which was determined to be just on the other side ( north) of the white PVC
fence separating the trailer park from Skipper Rd. When he approached the fence line, he could not see over
the fence without assistance and decided to jump and briefly pull himself up enough to quickly see onto Skipper
Rd. Mr. Schmid stated he observed what appeared to be an unknown black male, lying on the ground, wearing
a red shirt, red sweater, black pants and red and black shoes. Christopher Schmid lost his grip and responded
to his vehicle, where he obtained a ladder for a better view. fie then went back to the fence line, where he
positioned his ladder for a constant visualization of the unfolding events. fie observed Apparent blood squirting
from an area of the black male' s chest and a deputy appeared to be checking the person' s clothing for weapons.
After checking the unknown person' s clothing, Mr. Schmid stated the same deputy began rendering emergency
medical treatment to the black male lying on the ground. Additional deputies arrived on scene and assisted with
the provided medical treatment. A short time later, Emergency Medical Services arrived, took custody of the
unknown person and drove off with said individual. During his observations, Mr. Schmid stated he never saw
a firearm and or weapon on the ground and reiterated he never observed the actual shooting. lie concluded by
Follon Up Report # HS 3
stating he did not know what happened leading up to his observations, did not know what specifically was yelled
while he was inside his house, and did not know who was responsible for yelling the two words he overhead.

Michelle McCarty stated she and her family were inside their trailer when the shooting took place.
She continued by stating at approximately 1845 hours, she was standing inside her kitchen when she heard
someone outside yell two unknown words, followed by two gunshots. Mrs. McCarty stated her husband ran
outside first, while she situated her children in a safe place. While her older child watched the younger two, Mrs.
McCarty responded outside to find her husband standing on a ladder, looking over the white perimeter fence.
When she responded to that location, she looked over the fence and observed an individual being loaded onto an
ambulance. Once the ambulance departed from the scene, Mrs. McCarty responded back inside her residence, in
order to take care of her three children. Mrs. McCarty concluded by stating she never witnessed the shooting, did
not know specifically what was said prior to that and did not know what happened leading up to shooting itself.

Subject: FOLLOW- UP INVESTIGATION
This is my Ist supplemental followup in reference to this investigation and 1 was assigned to this
case as an assisting detective. On 03/ 26/ 2019, at approximately 2200 hours, Major F. Losat # 3664 contacted
me at my residence and informed me of an ongoing Use of Deadly Force Investigation, involving Deputy D.
Estanislau # 253881. The Major asked me to respond to the incident scene, which I later learned was the area of
Skipper Rd., just east of Nebraska Ave. At approximately 2225 hours, I departed from my residence, arriving
on scene at approximately 2300 hours. During that time, I noted a portion of Skipper Rd. was cordoned off with
yellow crime scene tape, with Patrol Deputies securing the roadway of Skipper Rd., between Nebraska Ave. and
Bearss Ave.
Upon my approach, I first met with Lieutenant P. Hollis # 5603, who provided me with the following statement of
the investigated shooting:
Lieutenant Hollis stated the Hillsborough County Sheriffs Office received a 911 call, referencing a Domestic
Violence call for service. The call came into HCSO Dispatch at approximately 1942 hours, with two deputies
dispatched to the residence of As the deputies responded to
the area, Deputy Estanislau observed a black male subject walking westbound on Skipper Rd., which matched
the general description of the suspect involved in the reported domestic altercation. As Deputy Estanislau
approached the individual, some sort of interaction occurred between the two parties, with Deputy Estanislau
discharging two rounds from his agency issued service weapon. One of the rounds supposedly struck the
individual, causing the subject to fall to the ground. Additional deputies arrived on scene, where they rendered
aid to the injured parry. EMS also arrived on scene, transporting the injured individual to Tampa General
Hospital. The injured person was identified as
The Lieutenant concluded by stating two parties, who lived within a trailer park just south of the incident
scene, may have witnessed the incident, with the Lieutenant asking me to interview both individuals. He later
provided me with their address of 1231 Four Seasons Blvd. Lot # 16 Tampa, FI. 33613.
At approximately 2323 hours, 1 responded to the aforementioned address and came into contact with the two
individuals Lieutenant Hollis was speaking of. Both individuals introduced themselves, by providing me with the
following identifying information:
W/ M, Christopher Schmid, DOB 06/ 22/ 1985
W/ F, Michelle McCarty, DOB 02/ 17/ 1984
Once they introduced themselves, I conducted audio recorded interviews of both people and concluded said
process at approximately 2354 hours. I then responded back to the incident scene and noted a white PVC type of

fence, separating the residence of Christopher Schmid from the scene where the use of deadly force took place.
I also updated Lieutenant Hollis of the information provided by the two witnesses and remained on scene until
03/ 27/ 2019 at 0028 hours. At that time, Major Losat asked me to respond to the District I Office, located at
14201 N. 20th St. Tampa, FI. 33613. Upon arrival, myself and various Homicide Detectives involved in this
investigation, met in the conference room of the district and received a debriefing of this investigation up to that
point.
At approximately 0340 hours, Major Losat concluded the meeting and I departed the District I Office.
On 03/ 27/ 2019, at approximately 1030 hours, 1 was departing my residence, when Sergeant C. Cave # 155902
contacted me on the phone. The sergeant requested I respond to the Tampa General Hospital, in order to obtain
an updated medical status of injuries. When 1 arrived at approximately 1 130 hours, I responded
to the Emergency Room of TGH, where I was redirected to assigned room, documented as
Pediatric ICU # C508. As I met with the nursing staff of the Pediatric ICU, I was informed the overseeing nurse
of was Danielle Gullo, RN. I then met with Nurse Gullo, who informed me
was awake, not on any pain medication, and was able to provide law enforcement with a statement if need
be. I also asked her to list all the injuries sustained to person, with her providing me with the
following:
sustained an apparent gunshot wound to the upper right portion of his back, and or
shoulder.
He only sustained one gunshot wound, which entered into the upper back but did not exit the body.
Apparent fragmentation was still located within the body of and no future surgeries were
scheduled for the removal of said fragmentation.
Nurse Gullo was unsure if a solid projectile was still inside the person of or if it
fragmented upon its entry into his body.
lie sustained a collapsed right lung
He had a chest tube set in place on the right side of his torso
was experiencing paralysis from the nipple line down, due to the projectile impacting the
T6 vertebrate of his spine.
It appeared to Nurse Gullo the paralysis was complete and not temporary.
The 8th rib, located on the right side of his body was fractured.
was expected to survive his injuries
For this entire week, during the daytime hours, Dr. Bhandare would be the overseeing physician assigned to
After speaking to Nurse Gullo, I was directed to the room of noting he was located in a hospital
bed, with his mother sitting by his side. l introduced myself to the and provided her
with my contact information. I also informed her 1 was checking on the condition of her son and asked her to
contact the if she had any additional questions in reference to this investigation. I contacted Sergeant Cave and

updated him with the medical condition of 1 then departed from the hospital, responding to
the CID office.
At approximately 1330 hours, Sergeant Cave asked me to respond back out to TGH and meet with Corporal
G. Thomas # 5165. Upon arrival, I was to meet up with the corporal and attempt an audio recorded interview
of When I arrived at approximately 1405 hours, Corporal Thomas and I responded to the
hospital room of and noted his mother was no longer present inside the room. At that point,
Corporal Thomas contacted the mother on the phone, asking her permission to speak with her son, while she was
not present. granted his request and stated she went home to change clothes, stating it was ok
for us to speak with him, even though she was not there for the interview.
The corporal and I entered the hospital room, introducing ourselves to We asked him if
we could speak with him, referencing the shooting incident, and he immediately shook his head no.
then turned to his side, closed his eyes, and refused to acknowledge our presence within the room.
As it was clear, did not want to speak with us, therefore we did not attempt an interview
with him. At approximately 1435 hours, Corporal Thomas and I departed from the Pediatric ICU, coming into
contact with the father of As we met with him, the Corporal spoke to
the father, infonming him of our wishes to speak with his son. at that point stated his son was being
represented by Attorney Norman Cannella Sr. and his son would not be speaking to law enforcement at this
time. We provided the father with our contact information, updated Sergeant Cave of the failed attempt at an
interview, along with the fact was now represented by Mr. Cannella. We responded back
to the CID office, where I secured my investigation for the day. At this time, I have no further information in
reference to this investigation and I will supplement this case if further leads are obtained.

Jose Aviles related the following on March 27, 2019, under sworn verbal oath:
He originally contacted Bay News 9 about the shooting, but eventually HCSO was contacted. He was driving
on Skipper toward Nebraska when he noticed a deputy pulling to the side of the road. The deputy parked his car
so that it was partially blocking the lane, so he stopped his car behind the deputy' s car. He drives a white Acura
Integra. He noticed a kid on the sidewalk to the right, and it appeared the cop and the kid noticed each other. He
believed the kid was getting ready to run, backed up three steps, and at the same time, the deputy pulled out his
gun. The deputy yelled for the kid to stop and show his hands, and then he heard three gunshots. He stated a red
Ford Explorer was behind him. He believes the Explorer stopped, but he did not want to stop at that time.
He described the kid as an African American male wearing all red. He may have had a hoodie on. His windows
were down at the time he observed the incident. His music was not blasting. He believed the kid was going to
run because of the way he was backing away. The kid was turning when the cop pulled out his gun and shot.
He was asked to describe the body positions of the deputy and the kid. He described the cop was looking at
the kid as he was coming around the door, but the kid was about to start running. At the same time, the cop
said show me your hands and let off three shots. There was not that much time between the warning and the
gunshots. He then stated the kid' s body was turned toward the deputy, and he was tuming to his right when
the shots were fired. He did not hear any other dialogue between the deputy and the kid. The only statement
he heard was "
Stop! Show me your hands!" He advised the deputy' s gun was already out when he made the
statement for the kid to stop and show his hands. He saw the kid' s hands, and there was not anything in them. lie
is not biased toward law enforcement. He described the kid' s hands as being at chest level ( he demonstrated it for
me as having his own hands by his nipple line). The kid was not reaching to his pockets.
He advised the deputy was standing still when he drew his weapon. The kid was getting ready to run. He stated
the kid just fell to the ground clutching his left side. The deputy approached the kid and was still saying, " Show
me
your hands!" The deputy rolled the kid to his back, and he perceived the kid as flopping on the ground as if
he was seizing. He advised the whole event was very fast. He advised as the event was occurring he was barely
moving. As the shooting occurred, he described his vehicle as being just west of the patrol vehicle. He believed
the deputy was three to five feet away from his car when this occurred. There was nobody else in his car at the
time of the shooting. He believed he saw a male on a bicycle passing the kid before he was shot.
He then stated upon initial contact the deputy and the kid were facing each other, but there was some distance
between them. As they spotted each other, the kid backed up and the cop was drawing his weapon. At this
point, he imagined the kid was already turning around. I cautioned him to not imagine, but to think about what
actually happened. He advised the kid' s eyes got wide when he saw the deputy, he was going to start running,
back pedaled three steps, and the cop drew his weapon and fired. The kid' s left side was exposed to the deputy
when the shots were fired.

4 Its 4 Upon recapping his
statement, he advised the deputy and the kid spot each other and are face to face initially. He states the
deputy moves closer to the kid as the kid is backing up (diferent statement from earlier).He states as the subject
is turning, the deputy is drawing his gun. He does not know if the subject' s head is facing the deputy at this
point or not. At this point, he was focusing on the deputy. He did not see the subject' s hands as the gunfire went
off, because his focus was on the deputy. The last time he saw the subject' s hands was at the subject' s chest
level,but once the deputy drew his firearm, he did not notice what the subject' s hands were doing. The above is

On March 26, 2019, at approximately 2002 hours, I received a phone call from Corporal Gregory
Thomas # 5165 requesting I respond to Skipper Road Tampa, Florida 33613 ( within Hillsborough County)
in reference to a deputy involved shooting. Corporal Thomas advised me 1 would be the lead investigator on
the case. 1 pulled up the call from the CAD, and noted a domestic violence just occurred ( documented under
HCSO case number 2019- 21 1 10 ) and was dispatched at 1942 hours at 1250 1946

as James
call stated the suspect was wearing a red
jumpsuit. AT 1947 hours, Deputy Estanislau advises over the radio " shots fired."I
arived in the area of 1028 Skipper Road at ap roximately 2040 hours. I noted Skipper Road was
cordoned off with yellow crime scene tape just east of Nebraska Avenue North, which was the route 1 to k to
get into the area of the scene. I parked my unmarked vehicle on the south side of Skipper Road, west of 1028
Skipper Road. 1 noted multiple layers of crime scene tape throughout Skipper Road, and noticed yellow crime
scene tape further east by the Jasmine was where the original domestic violence
call originated from).
1 met with Sergeant Chad Cave #155902, and advised him I alredy spoke with Corporal
Thomas about being the lead investigator for the case. 1 obtained the biographical information for James
this time from Sergeant Cave and Deputy Estanislau' s information as well. Sergeant Cave and
I waited for other members of the Homicide Section to respond to the incident scene to discuss assignments. Sergeant
Cave advised me Detective Kevin Rettew #233650 was responding to Tampa General Hospital to check
the status of James this time, I was advised James one apparent gunshot wound to
the left side of his back, under the left shoulder. Corporal
Thomas was designated as the assist for this investigation, and Master Detective Moises Garcia #
51 19 was assigned to document the crime scene. Detective David Tabor #218707 assisted with peripheral
interviews (see his supplement for details). Corporal Thomas advised the he informed Assistant State Attorney
Scott Harmon of the incident, who advised he would be responding to the incident scene as well. 1 noted
Corporal Marinko Nikic 4227443 is the direct supervisor of Deputy Estanislau, and was asked to stay with Deputy
Estanislau throughout the night. I observd Corporal Nikic and Deputy Estanislau in a marked patrol vehicle

Cave,Corporal Thomas, Master Detective Garcia and l surveyd the north side of Skipper Road
and noted patrol deputies placed orange colored cones in various locations, which designated items of evidentiary
value. Refer to Master Detective Garcia' s sup lem nt for complete and accurate details of the crime scene.
I was advised two spent Homady 9MM shell casings were located under two of the orange cones. This brand
of ammunition is consistent with the ammunition distributed to sworn deputies with the Hil sborough County
Sheriffs Office. Sergeant Cave advised me the Shot Spotter system did not register the two shots For:

fired. l specifically noted the streetlights in the area of the incident scene on the north side of Skipper Road, in
the vicinity of where the actual shooting appeared to have occurred, were not operational. Corporal Thomas
pointed out potential surveillance cameras affixed to the main building of the business known as Rentalex. I
noted a phone number on the sign ( 813- 971- 9990), and attempted to call it. 1 heard the phone ringing inside
the business, but the phone just rang without a voicemail. I have experienced in the past where businesses may
forward a business number to a cellular telephone after hours, however this was not the case with this business.
Sergeant Cave would later advise me a business owner was contacted, and would respond to the scene to have
the surveillance video viewed.
District I patrol personnel were initiating the original domestic violence related incident under
HCSO case number 2019-21 1 10 . Corp al Thomas advised me the use of deadly force encounter would be documented under
HCSO case number 2019- 211277. This action was taken to document the two incidents separately. I learned James Fulmore battered the
two victms in violence incident ( Stephanie Thomas, a black female, date of

interview with a potential witness to the use of deadly force.Detective Tabor provided me with the
witness information ( Annette Gaddy, a black female, date of birth April 28, 1958).Refer to Detective
Tabor' s supplement for details of the interview. I learned Annette Gaddy was driving westbound on Skipper Road
in a red in color Ford Explorer when she claimed to observe the incident. I noted Detective Tabor advised the
details of his interview with Annette Gaddy to Corporal Thomas, Sergeant Cave, Master Detective Garcia, and HCSO
Legal Counsel Olivier Lindemann #252174. 1 learned HCSO Assistant Legal Counsel Jason Gordilo# 136777
was assigned to represent Deputy Estanislau, and was in contact with Deputy Estanislau at the
District I Office. Lieutenant Charles Hollis # 5603 provided me with an office issued FNS 9MM (serial number GKU01
15590) to provide to Deputy Estanislau. 1 was provided three empty magazines, a new Streamlight TLR-1
tactical light, and a box of Homady 9MM duty ammunition as well to provide to Deputy Estanislau. Corporal Thomas
and I left the incident
scene at approximately 2 13 hours to go to the District I Office to conduct a round count

and observe Deputy Estanislau be photographed by HCSO Crime Scene Investigator Angela Anderson -Cobb # 257563. We arrived
at the District I Office at approximately 2217 hours and waited for Mr. Gordillo to be
done speaking with Deputy Estanislau. Once their interaction was completed, I introduced myself to Deputy Estanislau, and
advised him 1 was the lead investigator for the use of deadly force. I explained to him I was going
to have CSI Anderson - Cob photograph him and we would be conducting an inspection of his weapon and counting his
ammunition. I noted Deputy Estanislau' s duty belt
aperd to have all of the standard equipment issued at the time of the shooting. Deputy Estanislau wears
his duty holster on his right side. Deputy Estanislau was wearing For: 205814 Printed On:May-01-2019 (

Polio" Up Reporl # HS 4
eyeglasses when I observed him at the District I Office. I also noted him to be wearing a shoulder microphone
on his mobile radio, which was clipped to the center of his uniform. Deputy Estanislau was wearing the Class B
uniform of the day at the time of the shooting. I observed him to be wearing his issued bulletproof vest under his
uniform shirt. I noted what appeared to be dried blood on the bottom of his right wrist, specifically on a white
in color fitness tracker he was wearing and on the surface of his skin. The apparent blood was consistent with
transfer. I did not observe any physical injuries to Deputy Estanislau. It should be noted my interaction at this
point with Deputy Estanislau was limited. I refrained from asking him any questions about the incident, and he
did not provide any information to me.
The round count occurred at 2245 hours. It should be noted the HCSO issued FNS 9MM
semiautomatic handgun has a magazine capacity of 17 9MM rounds, with one extra 9MM round chambered
for a fully loaded duty ready weapon. HCSO deputies carry two extra magazines with a capacity of 17 rounds
in each. The total number of live ammunition on a standard duty belt should equal 52 rounds to be considered
ready for duty. I had CSI Anderson -Cobb label the magazines. The one closest to Deputy Estanislau' s radio was
labeled " Magazine A," which had 17 live Homady 9MM rounds inside of it. The magazine closest to the center
of his abdomen was labeled " Magazine B," which had 17 live Homady 9MM rounds inside of it. 1 then asked
Deputy Estanislau to provide me with his issued FNS 9MM, to which he complied. I inspected the weapon,
and it appeared to have no modifications to it. 1 noted he had the issued Streamlight TLR- 1 light affixed to the
weapon, and it was functioning at the time of my inspection. The serial number on Deputy Estanislau' s FNS
9MM is GKU0126648. 1 noted 15 live Homady 9MM rounds in the magazine of Deputy Estanislau' s weapon,
and one live Homady 9MM round in the chamber. This is consistent with the two spent casings found at the
incident scene to show Deputy Estanislau was loaded for duty at the time of the shooting. I provided the new
weapon and accessories mentioned above to Deputy Estanislau. CSI Anderson -Cobb took possession of the
original FNS 9MM, magazines, and live ammunition taken from Deputy Estanislau, and impounded them into
evidence.
Corporal Thomas and 1 departed the District I Office and went back to the incident scene at
approximately 2330 hours. We briefed Major Francis Losat 43664, Lieutenant Hollis, and Sergeant Cave with
the results of the round count. Shortly thereafter, Deputy Estanislau and Mr. Gordillo arrived back at the incident
scene to conduct a walk- thru. The purpose of the walk- thr was to determine positioning at the time of the
shooting. I discussed the specific questions 1 was going to ask Deputy Estanislau with Mr. Gordillo prior to the
walk- thr being conducted. The questions asked were as follows:
Where were you when you first arrived on scene?
Where were you when you first observed the subject?
Where was the subject when you first encountered him?
Where were you standing when you fired the first shot?
Where were you when you fired the second shot?
Did you move between shots?
I advised Mr. Gordillo that the walk- thru process could begin when Deputy Estanislau was ready.
The walk- thr had the following personnel present during the process: Corporal Thomas, Master Detective

Garcia, CSI Michelle Hermann # 257973, CSI Anderson - Cobb, ASA Harmon, SAO Investigator Juan Acosta,
State Attorney Andrew Warren, HCSO Legal Counsel Gordillo, HCSO Legal Counsel Lindemann, and Deputy
Estanislau. I read Deputy Estanislau his Miranda warnings from a State Attorney' s Office issued Miranda card
dated April 201. 7 at 2339 hours. Deputy Estanislau acknowledged his rights, and agreed to answer questions at
this time. I requested CSI Hermann to have different colored cones to represent the positions Deputy Estanislau
pointed out of where he was and a different colored evidence marker where would have been,
according to Deputy Estanislau. Refer to Master Detective Garcia' s supplement for complete details of the
marker placement. I noted Deputy Estanislau indicated he did not move from the point where he fired his
weapon, nor did he move between shots. position did not change much from the point Deputy
Estanislau first observed him to where he fell after the shots were fired.
Once the walk- thru process was completed, I assisted with looking for a projectile in the Rentalex
parking lot. t noted Master Detective Richard Woychowski # 3468 was able to contact the owner of the business,
and was in the process of obtaining surveillance video. 1 was advised the owner allowed HCSO to search his
property for potential evidence. I observed a possible impact point on the fence line, specifically on a cable area,
that appeared to be going from south to north, consistent with the direction the shooting took place. I searched
the grassy area to the north of the gate and the parking lot, but I was unable to locate a projectile.
convened at the District I Office with personnel involved in the case to discuss the actions taken
in the investigation thus far. Corporal Thomas and 1 then went to Tampa General Hospital ( TGH) to conduct
audio -recorded interviews with family members. Detective Rettew was asked to conduct audio -
recorded interviews with his siblings ( while Corporal Thomas and I interviewed

person who pointed Deputy Estanislau to where was walking. This is significant, because at this
point 1 did not know who directed Deputy Estanislau to where he ended up using deadly force. I departed TGH
at approximately 0230 hours and concluded my shift for the morning.
Follow Up Report H HS a
I convened with Sergeant Cave at the Criminal Investigations Division on March 27, 2019,
at approximately 1000 hours. We discussed the course of actions needed to be taken, which started with
interviewing the first several deputies who arrived on scene after the shooting took place. I pulled the call log,
and requested all of the radio traffic on all District 1 channels concerning this incident. Sergeant Cave informed
me Detective Sean Royal transported Deputy Estanislau' s FNS 9MM firearm and the spent casings to FDLE ( see
his supplement for details).
I received Deputy Estanislau' s disciplinary history from the Professional Standards Section. I
noted his original hire date was October 4, 2015. lie had one entry on his file, which was a traffic crash on
April 30, 2017 ( HCSO case number 2017- 304361). lie received a letter of counseling as a result of the internal
investigation and lost the use of his take home vehicle for a period of five days. This was the only entry in his
file.
I requested Deputy Estanislau' s training history and last qualifications with his FNS 9MM. I learned
Deputy Estanislau last qualified with the involved FNS 9MM on October 31, 2018 during his annual in- service.
I noted Deputy Estanislau signed up for an advanced training class called " Identifying and Surviving Hidden
Weapons," which is scheduled to begin on August 9, 2019.
I reviewed surveillance video from the Rentalex property, which displays a time approximately
four hours and six minutes slower than real time. The angle of the camera looks south to Skipper Road. I
observed what appears to be a black male wearing all red, which is consistent with what was
wearing, walking westbound on Skipper Road on the sidewalk. I observed Deputy Estanislau' s marked patrol
vehicle pull up to the north side of Skipper Road, partially in the roadway ( as I observed it at the scene).
appears to turn to his left and it appears he looks at Deputy Estanislau' s marked patrol vehicle. As
turns to his left, he raises what appears to be his left arm in a waving fashion toward Deputy
Estanislau ( who has not exited his patrol vehicle at this point) and then continues walking westbound.
goes out of view from this point. Deputy Estanislau exits the driver' s seat of his marked patrol vehicle
and raises his hands up to about chest level while walking toward Deputy Estanislau, takes
several steps forward ( west) and as he crosses the front bumper of his marked patrol vehicle, he drops his
shoulders slightly and draws his issued firearm from his right side. Deputy Estanislau continues advancing
forward ( west) in what appears to be consistent with an isosceles stance. The gunshots are not captured on video,
as Deputy Estanislau also goes out of view from the camera angle. As the above movements are occurring, I
did not observe Annette Gaddy' s red Ford Explorer, which she claimed was parallel to the incident at the time of
the shooting. As Deputy Estanislau goes off camera, a white in color vehicle is observed just behind his marked
patrol vehicle. That vehicle stops briefly, then veers to its left and slowly continues westbound. Annette Gaddy' s
Ford Explorer is observed several car lengths behind the white vehicle. As the white vehicle stops behind the
patrol vehicle, Annette Gaddy' s Ford Explorer is seen stopping several car lengths behind the white vehicle. The
red Ford Explorer then follows a similar path around the [narked patrol vehicle. Annette Gaddy' s statement is not
consistent with the video surveillance.

Follow Up Report # [ is 4
I was previously scheduled for a motion hearing at the Hillsborough County Courthouse at 1330
hours, so I was unable to go to TGH to attempt to interview Master Detective Dirks and
Corporal Thomas went in my place ( see their respective supplements for details). I learned did
not wish to speak with them, and his father advised Corporal Thomas that he hired an attorney to represent his
son' s interests. Attorney Norman Cannella contacted HCSO on March 27, 2019, at approximately 1431 hours
requesting HCSO not to speak with his client.
1 contacted Corporal Nikic via phone and requested to speak with him in person. 1 met him at
his residence and conducted an audio -recorded interview with him under sworn verbal oath. Corporal Nikic
had the most contact with Deputy Estanislau after the use of deadly force occurred, and I wanted to know of
any statements made by Deputy Estanislau during his contact with him. For complete and accurate details of
the interview, refer to the audio recording / transcription. Corporal Nikic provided me with the statements he
obtained from Deputy Estanislau. He indicated that Deputy Estanislau believed was reaching
into his waistband, and he pulled out a dark object. This was the reason why Deputy Estanislau deployed deadly
force. He described Deputy Estanislau as being distraught during his contact with him. Corporal Nikic did not
ask specific detail oriented questions of Deputy Estanislau during his contact with him. Corporal Nikic was
trying to ascertain what occurred at the time.
I received information from Corporal Thomas about a possible eyewitness to the deadly force
encounter. Corporal Thomas provided me the name " Jose" and a phone number of 813- 474- 8299. 1 immediately
called this number and the person who answered identified himself as " Jose," and was willing to meet with me.
1 drove to the Toyota of Tampa Bay dealership ( located at 1101 East Fletcher Avenue Tampa, Florida 33612)
and met with Jose Aviles ( a white / Hispanic male, date of birth August 4, 1996). Jose Aviles was willing to
speak to me under sworn verbal oath and on audio recording. For complete and accurate details of the interview,
refer to the audio recording / transcription. I learned that Jose Aviles was the driver of the white vehicle seen
stopped just prior to Deputy Estanislau going out of view from the surveillance video at the Rentalex. Jose
Aviles advised he heard Deputy Estanislau state aloud twice, "show me your hands!" This was prior to shots
being fired. He indicated his attention was focused on Deputy Estanislau once he drew his gun. He advised he
noticed hands were at chest level prior to him focusing on Deputy Estanislau. I had him go
through his account of what occurred several times, and had him clarify several points in his statement. I had
him go through the sequence of events step- by- step and where his attention was at each point during each step. I
then updated Corporal Thomas with the information Jose Aviles provided me.
I called Deputy Kevin O' Brien # 256560, and requested to speak with him in person. He agreed to
meet me at the Publix parking lot ( located at 16560 North Nebraska Avenue Lutz, Florida 33549). The interview
was audio -recorded under sworn verbal oath. For complete and accurate details of the interview, refer to the
audio recording / transcription. Deputy O' Brien did not witness the deployment of deadly force. He indicated
he heard the domestic violence call over the radio, and was already inside the on an
unrelated call. Due to the size of the apartment complex, he was trying to locate where Deputy Estanislau was in
reference to the call. He never heard the gunshots, but heard the call for shots fired by Deputy Estanislau via the
radio.

called Deputy Leonard Weg # 253967, who advised me he could meet with me the following day
due to being out of county with his family. On March 28, 2019, 1 went to Deputy Wes s residence to conduct an
audio -recorded interview with him under sworn verbal oath. For complete and accurate details of the interview,
refer to the audio recording / transcription. Deputy Weg arrived at the incident scene after Deputy O' Brien did.
Once the interview was completed, I went to Deputy Armando Perez' s # 254523 residence to conduct an audio -
recorded interview under sworn verbal oath. For complete and accurate details of the interview, refer to the audio
recording / transcription. Deputy Perez was the first deputy on scene after the call for shots fired.
Once the interviews listed above were completed, I went to the Criminal Investigations Division
to review the 911 and radio traffic. I began to make a timeline of events to have a better understanding of
what deputies were actually present at the scene just after the incident occurred. I wanted to ensure I spoke
to every deputy that may have observed the initial scene, or would have had contact with Deputy Estanislau.
I focused on Deputy Estanislau' s radio transmissions as well, to ensure I had an accurate account of what he
was saying and how long it took by the time he arrived at the scene, to when the shots were fired. Deputy
Estanislau' s unit number / call sign on the radio is " 2A39." Deputy Estanislau advises he is " 97" ( on scene) at
1945 hours, " 10- 25" ( in contact with) at 1946 hours, and approximately 28 seconds later, Deputy Estanislau
holds the station " 10- 46" ( emergency traffic) for shots fired. I also requested the GPS locations of all deputies
involved, which was (napped out to show the exact locations of each involved unit on this case. It appeared
Deputy Estanislau' s vehicle was coming off the northbound exit from I- 275 to Bearss Avenue when the domestic
violence call is dispatched. Deputy Estanislau was en -route to a shoplifting call at the time the domestic violenr
call is dispatched, but elects to go to the domestic violence call in lieu of the call he was going to. The domesti,
violence call was in Deputy Estanislau' s assigned geographical area of "A03," so it appeared he was attempting
to take a priority call in his area of primary responsibility. Deputy Estanislau was also fairly close to the priority
call at the time he advised he would be en -route to it. The intersection of 1- 275 / Bearss Avenue is just northwest
of Skipper Road, approximately 1. 1 miles away.
1 began to look into the background of I noted he has a lengthy history of arrests
and Baker Act incidents. As 1 reviewed the material related to the general theme of the reports
was very consistent. has targeted his mother the majority of the incidents involving domestic
violence. has passively resisted law enforcement efforts to take him into custody on multiple
occasions. He refuses to obey verbal commands. which is consistent with his mother' s statement about his
Oppositional Defiance Disorder.
On March 29, 2019, 1 began the day by speaking with on the phone at
approximately 0926 hours. She advised me still had fragments in his spine. She also advised
is right handed. This is significant, because in reviewing the video, Deputy Estanislau appears to
only have a view of left side as he approaches him.
I contacted Deputy Scott Richardson # 246604, who met with me at the Criminal Investigations
Division for an audio -recorded interview under sworn verbal oath. For complete and accurate details of the
interview, refer to the audio recording / transcription. Deputy Richardson showed up to the incident scene at the
end of his shift due to hearing the distress call from Deputy Estanislau. Deputy Richardson noticed the cellular

did not observe anyone take the phone out of pockets, and to his knowledge, it was like that
when all of the deputies arrived on scene.
1 went to HCFR Station 40, and met with HCFR Fire Medic Dillon Messina # 1471. Dillon Messina
agreed to an audio -recorded interview under sworn verbal oath. For complete and accurate details of the
interview, refer to the audio recording / transcription. Dillon Messina did not remove anything from
pockets, just his shoes. The only statements made to him was, " 1 can' t feel my legs"
and " don' t let me die."
1 waited for the responding deputies who 1 previously interviewed to come back to work to conduct
a followup interview with each. I also learned Deputy Carlos Flores # 253966 and Deputy Joel Service # 255039
arrived on scene around the time of the previously interviewed deputies. I conducted sworn interviews with both
Deputy Flores and Deputy Service ( refer to their respective interviews for details), and then I re -interviewed
Deputy Weg, Deputy O' Brien, Deputy Perez, and Corporal Nikic separately. I clarified with each one of them
if they noticed anything of evidentiary value or if any of the removed anything from pockets.
None of the interviewees removed anything from pockets, and all of them noticed the cell
phone standing up on the sidewalk. For complete details of their interviews, refer to the audio recordings /
transcriptions.
On March 30, 2019, 1 contacted via phone. She advised me has T- 6 and
T- 8 fractures in his spine. He also has lesions on his right lung due to rib fracture. She advised he is paralyzed
from the nipple line down. She has been staying at the hospital to comfort She provided a cell phone
number for On April I, 2019, 1 requested a subpoena for
subscriber and toll information for The subpoena was faxed to
on this date. On April 2, 2019, 1 called at approximately 0906 hours, but there was no audible
response from her. It should be noted this was the last time picked up the phone when 1 tried
calling her. It appears since April 2, 2019; no longer seemed cooperative or willing to hear
any updates regarding case.
The incident was not originally captured via Shot Spotter. HCSO contacted Shot Spotter directly
and inquired about the location of sensors in the area of the incident scene. Shot Spotter was able to locate two
gunshots by manually going into the system. The Shot Spotter report indicated two gunshots were captured
at 19: 46: 44 hours. The shots can be heard on the audio provided by Shot Spotter, and they appear to sound
consecutive. The time the shots are captured is consistent with the radio traffic when Deputy Estanislau advises
he is in contact with 19: 46: 19 hours), the GPS from Deputy Estanislau, and the radio traffic from
Deputy Estanislau after the shots are fired ( approximately four seconds after the Shot Spotter report). On April 8,
2019, 1 learned the incident scene was forensically mapped for accurate distances. The crime scene diagram was
incorporated with the mapping that was completed. I reviewed the surveillance video, and with the assistance
of Corporal John Graves # 4044, we were able to get the approximate location of where Annette Gaddy and Jose
Aviles were at the exact time of the shooting, according to the Shot Spotter report. The measurements were
determined based off fixed points where each of these individual' s vehicles were at the time the shots are heard.
olio% Up Report N HS 4
The video shows neither of these witnesses were where they claimed to be at the time of the shooting. Annette
Gaddy was approximately 152 feet east of where Deputy Estanislau' s approximate firing position was at the
time of the shooting, and approximately 178 feet east of where Deputy Estanislau approximated
to be standing when he was shot. Jose Aviles was approximately 81 feet east of where Deputy Estanislau' s
approximate firing position was at the time of the shooting, and approximately 107 feet east of where Deputy
Estanislau approximated to be standing when he was shot.
On April 13, 2019, 1 impounded test fires from FDLE regarding Deputy Estanislau' s issued firearm.
The test fires were impounded under Property Report 739201- 1. 1 researched FDLE' s online laboratory, and
noted the report was completed. The casings at the incident scene snatched Deputy Estanislau' s issued firearm,
as expected. The firearm was function tested, and there were no reported weapon malfunctions according to the
report. Refer to the attached FDLE report for complete details.
On April 16, 2019, 1 convened with Corporal Thomas and Sergeant Cave, and was made aware
Deputy Estanislau provided a written statement via Attorney Stephen Romine on April 12, 2019. 1 reviewed
the letter, which was dated April 11, 2019, and noted Deputy Estanislau describes the event from initial contact
until after the shooting occurs. For complete and accurate details of the written statement, refer to the attached
statement.
On April 18, 2019, at approximately 1 1 14 hours, Deputy Estanislau and Attorney Stephen Romine
voluntarily came to the Criminal Investigations Division to clarify and demonstrate the movements he describe.
in his written statement. The entire interview was audio -recorded in a conference room. There was an
approximate five- minute break in between the two audio recordings were Assistant Legal Counsel Lindemann
requested to speak with Stephen Romine in private. Once the break was concluded, I turned my audio recording
device back on before any questions were asked. ASA Harmon, SAO Investigator Acosta, Corporal Thomas,
Assistant Legal Counsel Lindemann, Master Detective Garcia, and I were all present for the interview process.
Refer to the audio recording / transcription for complete and accurate details of the interview. It should be noted
Deputy Estanislau demonstrated body position upon initial contact when the shooting occurred.
He described as sidestepping away from him upon contact, which is consistent with the video
surveillance from the Rentalex camera. Deputy Estanislau described as, " creating a lane" with
his left arm extended upward from his body while his left shoulder is bladed toward him. He described being
able to see the front of and noticed right hand grasping a black colored object he
perceived as a fireann. Deputy Estanislau advised he knows it is common for individuals to carry firearms in
their waistband, and advised he carries his off -duty firearm in the front of his waistband, toward the right side.
Deputy Estanislau demonstrated the [notion trade toward him just prior to the shooting, which
was what caused him to fire his weapon. Fie described once bladed his left shoulder toward him,
and he recognized what he believed to be reaching for a fireann with his right hand, he drew
his own firearm and gave commands for to drop the gun. He did not fire right away. Deputy
Estanislau demonstrated a motion trade with his right hand coming upward from the waistband
toward him. He described this motion as happening very quickly, and he perceived this motion as being a threat
to his safety. He believed the motion was consistent with the barrel of a firearm being pointed toward him.

p HS 4 James Fulmore was
with Deputy Estanislau' s commands to show his hands. He advised James Fulmore never
to him at these moments in time to suggest he only had a cell phone on him. I compared Deputy
Estanilu' s written statement and verbal clarification to the video surveil ance collected. Deputy Estanislau'
s statement is consi ten with the events captured on the video surveil ance. James Fulmore can
sidestepping as Deputy Estanislau' s marked patrol vehicle is approaching him from behind. It appears James
Fulmore' s the patrol vehicle as he is side stepping, and his right arm is bent at the elbow, with
the lower half of his right arm appearing to be in the area of the right side of his waistband. As James Fulmore is
it appears he raises his left arm up as Deputy Estanislau is exiting his patrol vehicle, which
is consistent with when Deputy Estanislau described James Fulmore as him with his left
hand. Deputy Estanislau' s body language as he exits the driver' s side of his marked patrol vehicle does not seem
to be aggressive in nature, as he raises both of his hands in the air trying to engage James Fulmore in
Estanislau' s body language im ediately changes as he crosses the area of the front bumper of his
marked patrol vehicle, which is consistent with the written statement and verbal clarification he provided. On April
24,
2019, 1 received the subpoena records for James Fulmore' s There does not
appear to be any com unication at the time of the shooting. The times on the phone tolls are in UTC format, and

to the Evidence Section to view the projectile. I requested the property report ( PR 73694- 001)be transferred
from case number 2019- 211100 to this case number, as it is evidence of the use of deadly force investigation.
Evidence Technician Eddie James 43865 facilitated the transfer of property. I noted the projectile appeared relatively
intact. I completed a FDLE submission for the projectil and hand delivered it to FDLE. I spoke
to FDLE Firearms Supervisor John Romeo, and advised him of the update. He advised me to resubmit Deputy Estanislau'

Subject: DVR RECOVERY
On March 26, 2019 at approximately 2245 hours, I was contacted by Major F. Losat # 3664 of the Criminal
Investigations Division in reference to retrieving video evidence. Upon arrival at 1022 Skipper Road Tampa,
Florida 33613 ( Party Pros of Rentalex) I met with Master Detective M. Garica # 5119 of the Criminal
Investigations Division who directed me to the office where the DVR ( Digital Video Recorder) was located. I
met with the owner W/ M Robert W. Krueger who directed the to a closet in the northeast corner of his office
which housed the DVR. Once inside of the closet on top of a mini refrigerator, 1 observed a monitor on top of
the DVR, which was on top of another DVR, along with a keyboard and mouse. 1 noted that the lower DVR was
not operational at the time I observed it as there were no connections. 1 was advised that the monitor was not
operational which prohibited anyone from viewing the stored video. 1 switched out the monitor and reconnected
another one from a nearby office. It was determined the HDMI ( High - Definition Multimedia Interface) cable
was no longer functional. 1 utilized the HD- 15 ( VGA) connector that was connected to the DVR, at this time
I could now view the live video feed. I noted the DVR was a mace brand, model # MVSQ- DVRI6VA, serial
131 141 1240 .] observed on the rear of the DVR, the video in, audio in,I- IDM1, 14D- 15, network, and power cables were
all connected, and the DVR to be operational. The time stamp generator produced a date of 03- 26-
2019, and a time of 07: 21:58 PM. The current date and time was actually 03-26-2019,and a time of 1 1:
27
PM. Master Detective M Garcia #
5119 advised an approximate time of 7:
40 PM to look for the video. I located the video

On 03/ 26/ 19, at approximately 2059 hours, I responded to Skipper Rd in reference to a

use of deadly force incident. Upon arrival I met with Cpl. Greg Thomas # 5165 who advised me Det. Joseph
Florio # 205814 would be the lead investigator, and 1 would be tasked with documenting the incident scene. 1
observed the scene to be on the north side of Skipper Rd, east of the railroad tracks, directly in front of Rentalex
Equipment Rental ( 1016 Skipper Rd Tampa, FI). The incident appeared to located on the sidewalk in front of
Rentalex. There were several items of evidence which were already ( narked by patrol units. I waited fora Crime
Scene Unit to arrive and photograph the evidence prior to getting close enough to see the evidence.
Crime Scene Investigator (CSI) Michelle Mermann # 257973 responded to the scene and commenced
photographing and marking the scene. Once CSI. Hemann completed photographing the scene I conducted a
grid line search of the grassy areas next to the sidewalk but met with negative results locating any other evidence.
CSI. Hermann marked the following items with evidence markers:
I - HCSO Patrol Vehicle ( HCSO Tag# ZLY57)
2 - Shell Casing
3 - Shell Casing
4 - Clothing ( Red in color)
5 - Baggie containing possible marijuana inside
6 - Blood
7 - Clothing ( Red in color)

8 - Red watch cap
9 - Samsung cell phone ( standing on its side)
While documenting the items I observed several of the street lights in the area where extinguished.
directed CSI. Hennann to photograph the extinguished street lights to document the conditions. While CSI.
Herman continued photographing and setting up lights to assisting in documenting the scene, I contacted the
HCSO Communication center to request they check their database to locate the owners of Rentalex. Rentalex
had several cameras which were visible from Skipper Rd therefore I wanted to check if their cameras captured
the incident. A short time later I was advised a patrol deputy researched the information and responded to the
owner of Rentalex' s home, contacted the owner, had him respond to the scene, and the owner was standing by
to speak to me. I contacted Robert W. Krueger ( white male D. O. B. 07/ 19/ 65) who is the owner of Rentalex.
Robert Krueger showed the the surveillance system but relayed the monitor is broken and therefore the video
could not be viewed. I notified my supervisors, of the problem with the monitor, who in turn contacted Det. Rick
Woychowski # 3468 to respond to the scene to collect the video. Upon Det. Woychowski arrival 1 introduced him
to Robert Krueger and returned to the scene where CSI. Hermann continued to document and process the scene
with the assistance of Crime Scene Investigator ( CSI) Angela Anderson -Cobb # 257563.

At approximately 2345 hours, Post -Miranda, Det. Florio conducted a walk through of the scene
with Dep. Daniel Estanislau # 253881 at which time Dep. Estanislau relayed his location during key points of the
incident. During the walk through CSI. Hermann marked where Dep. Estanislau first saw
with a blue A, and where Dep. Estanislau used deadly force with a blue marker B. Based
on Dep. Estanislau' s recollection CSI. Hermann placed a green marker A to indicate location.
Det. Tabor relayed he interviewed a witness who was standing several light poles away from the
incident and asked that we document the approximate distance from the scene the witness was standing. Det.
Tabor relayed the witness was standing in the vicinity of a light pole approximately 100 yards east of the incident
scene. I contacted CSI. Hermann and requested she measure and photograph from the power pole to the incident
scene to get an approximate distance ( see Det. Tabor' s supplement for information relating to the interview).
Myself, Det. Tabor and Det. Florio attempted to locate a projectile from the incident but met with
negative results. We located what we believed to be a strike location on the fence for Rentalex, and had CSI.
Hermann photograph and measure the possible strike point. Without locating the actual projectile there is no way
to be sure what we observed on the fence is a strike point or not. It is merely a possibility and therefore it was
photographed.
Once CSI. Hermann and CSI. Anderson - Cobb completed all of their photographs, video, and
measurements we secured the scene, and 1 secured for the evening.
For the next two weeks 1 was on adverse shift and therefore unavailable to assist on this
investigation*****
On 04/ 16/ 19 at approximately 1500 hours, I served a subpoena to the Hillsborough County School
Board Office of records ( 2010 E. Hillsborough Ave Room 4212 Tampa, FI 33610).
At approximately 1600 hours I contacted, and conducted a digitally recorded interview, with
Hillsborough County Fire Lieutenant Anthony Fonseca. The interview was conducted at the Hillsborough

The initial response call was for a domestic. It wasn' t until he arrived on scene that he was infornied by patrol

Hennann arrived at 2107 hours to begin processing. Due to the incident originally being called in to FICSO
cot munications as a domestic violence incident, I requested a new case number assigned to the use of deadly
force incident by the HCSO communications section ( 19- 21 27 ). 1 also requsted both the domestic violence call and the use
of deadly force call linked within the Versaterm system. After requesting the new case number, I advised personnel on
scen to take note and document under the proper numbers. Der. C.Fisher ABN 167433 had responded to the
scene while in adverse capacity. Det. Fisher advised of more potential witnesses while looking for surveillance cameras.
I was provided with the names of Christopher Schmid and Michelle McCarty who reside at 1231
Four Seasons Dr. as well as potential cameras located at 1215 Four Seasons Dr. ( out of range and blocked by a
privacy fence).On scene CID staff elected to call M/Det. T. Dirks ABN 3721, to respond and assist, therefore l assigned

I st recorded interview conducted with Annette Gaddy***
On March 26, 2019, at approximately 2107 hours, Annette Gaddy provided the following information under
sworn verbal oath during an audio recorded interview. During the interview, I noted Ms. Gaddy was visibly
affected by what she had witnessed. She did not appear to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs and I did not
observe any signs of deception.
She was on her way home from dropping her grandson off in Tampa Palms. She was driving west
on Bearss Avenue when she turned onto Skipper Road. When she turned onto Skipper Road she saw a police
officer' s light from his car up ahead of her. There were two or three cars in front of her. As she was approaching
the patrol vehicle, the deputy was out of the vehicle and was approaching a subject wearing all red. As the deputy
was approaching the subject, the subject looked back at the deputy and then took off running west bound on
Skipper Road. Then she heard " 3 pops", and saw the guy dressed in all red fall to the ground. She pulled over to
check on the guy but could not get any more information about what happened. She said she was driving her red
Ford Explorer and the patrol vehicle was a marked vehicle.
She explained she was traveling about 30 m. p. h. and she only saw one deputy who was standing on
the drivers side of the patrol vehicle that was parked. All her windows were in the up position and nobody else
was in her car with her. The man in red, who took off running, only got a few steps away before she heard the

3 pops". When she heard the " 3 pops" she said she was " right there, where they were standing." She did not see
anything in the subject' s hands but, " was not looking for anything in anybody' s hands." With her windows up she
was unable to hear any dialogue between the deputy and the subject. She did not see the subject make and furtive
movements. She did not see any muzzle flashes and did not see a gun in the deputy' s hand.
After she stopped her vehicle and got out to check on the subject, she saw an older white male walking towards
Nebraska Avenue. She described him with dark blond hair, late 40' s- early 50' s, facial hair, possible wearing a
plaid shirt and khaki pants. There was also another guy riding a bicycle. She does not know the man who was
walking or the man riding the bicycle.

On March 26, 2019, at approximately 2202 hours, Jose Delacruz provided the following information under sworn
verbal oath during an audio recorded interview. Mr. Delacruz did not appear to be under the influence of drugs or
alcohol and I did not observe any signs of deception.
He was going to the store to play Mega Millon' s. He exited the trailer park when he observed the
old black man standing in the road in front of with a phone in his hand. A police officer came
from Nebraska and met with the old man. He said the old man was yelling " the one in the red, the one in the red."
The old man was pointing to the guy walking down the sidewalk who was wearing red. The deputy then turned
around and drove towards the guy walking in red. He did not see the guy in red running or any guns. He said
the patrol vehicle stopped, the guy in red was on the sidewalk next to the car, and then he heard " boom, boom,
boom." He did not see anyone exit the patrol vehicle. After he heard the " boom' s" the guy disappeared. He was
about 3 light poles away from where the shooting took place. He said the guy in red was not running away from
the deputy. He thinks the guy in red and the old man were having family problems but he is not sure. He could
not hear any discussion between the deputy and the subject in red because he was too far away.

Subject: 1ST SUPPLEMENTAL FOLLOW UP
This is my first supplemental follow up in reference to
On Tuesday, March 26, 2019, I was working as the adverse detective within the Criminal
Investigations Division when I was notified by Corporal P. Cole ABN # 136776 of a Deputy Involved shooting
at approximately 2010 hours. Corporal Cole advised District I Patrol Deputies were responding to a domestic
call for service ( Hillsborough County Sheriffs Office case number 2019- 211 10 ) at 1250 Skipper Terrace
female victim on the ground with an injury to her head. The suspect was identified
as her son who fled the scene prior to the arrival of responding deputies. Deputies eventually came into contact
with the victim' s son who was walking on the sidewalk along Skipper Road away from the incident scene. At
some point during the interaction with the subject, the deputy utilized his firearm to deploy deadly force.The
shooting took place just west of the original call for service, west of the Jasmine Terrace
was struck by a bullet and transported to Tampa General Hospital. I was first requested to respond to Tampa General
Hospital to check the status of the victim. While pulling into the parking lot of Tampa General Hospital, I
was re- routed to the scene to assist with interviews. While en -
route to the shooting scene, I reviewed the Computer Automated Dispatch for HCSO case number
2019-21 1 100 and leamed is was dispatched as a 380 Domestic -Just Oc ur ed. The response location was listed as
1250 Skipper Road Apartment on 03/26/2019 at 1942 hours. In the remarks of
the CAD call I learned of the fol wing information: "CP CRYING SAYING SOMEONE IS BLEEDING."While driving to
the
incident scene, I was contacted by Corp al Gregory Thomas ABN 95165 via phone, who advised I
was going to asit with interviewing two witnesses who may have observed the shooting. The actual location where
the shooting took place was just west of the apartment complex where the original call for service was received.
I further learned Detective Joseph Florio ABN #
205814 was being assigned as the lead detective and Corporal Thomas
was going to be assisting him.Master Detective Moises Garcia ABN #
51 19 was being assigned as the
crime scene detective. At approximately 2047 hours,
1 arrived at the incdent location. I noted it was dark outside. I arrived at the scen from
Nebraska Avenue. Upon arrival, I observed a patrol deputy standing post on Skipper Road between the railroad crossing
and Nebraska Avenue. The deputy was in his marked patrol vehicle and had his emergency lights activated. The
deputy appeared to be preventing through traf ic from proceeding eastbound on Skipper Road.The
deputy allowed me to proceed east on Skipper Road.I proce ded a short distance where I observed yellow Sheriffs
Ofice Crime Scene tape stretching across the roadway from a light pole on the north side of the
road, just west of the Rentalex, to the white PVC fence on the south side of the road. There were multiple HCSO units
on scene to include supervisory personnel. 1 provided my information to Deputy Magro ABN 2#44912 who
was maintaining the crime scene log on the western perimeter. I proceeded to walk For: 205814 Printed On:

the south side of the road where 1 made contact with Cpl. Thomas. At this time, Cpl. Thomas proceeded to explain
there were two witnesses who needed to be interviewed. One witness was on the west side of the incident
scene and sitting inside of her vehicle. The other witness was on the east side of the incident scene and was
standing with deputies while waiting to be interviewed. Cpl. Thomas provided me with a brief synopsis at which
time I learned deputies responde to a domestic call for service at 1250 Skipper Road (
victim with an injury to her head. The suspect was identified as her son,who fled the
scene on foot prior to the arrival of deputies. Deputy Estanislau ABN #253881 located the suspect walking westbound, on
the north side sidewalk, away from the incident scene. The suspect was wearing a red long sle ved hoodie.
Deputy Estanislau made contact with the suspect. At some point Deputy Estanislau drew his service weapon
and deployed deadly force. The suspect was struck and subsequently transported to Tampa General Hospital where
he was being treated for his injuries. Cpl. Thomas pointed to the north side of Skipper road and stated
that is approximately where the shooting took place. At that time, I observed an HCSO marked patrol vehicle parked
on the north shoulder of Skipper Road,facing west bound. In front of the vehicle (west of)l observed what
aperd to be red in color clothing. See Master Detective M.Garcia supplement for a detailed description of the
crime scene. I then walked
westbound towards Deputy M. Magro. Deputy Magro pointed to a red in color Ford Explorer that was
parked on the north shoulder of Skipper Road facing west bound. Deputy Magro advised the female witness was
sitting in the driver' s seat of the Ford Explorer. Deputy Magro proceeded to tell me Deputy M. Watts originally
began to interview the female witness before she D( ep.Magro) took over the interview. Shortly into her
interview with the female witness, Deputy J.Blyth ABN #258 27, then took over the interview with the witness.
See respective supplements for further details of those interviews. At approximately 2102
hours, I made contact with the red Ford Explorer ( North Carolina registration plate ADB- 5530)
and noted all four windows were in the up position. I knocked on the drivers' side window and made contact
with the female witness, Annette Gaddy (a black female, date of birth April 28, 1958).1 noted Ms. Gady was
the only occupant inside of the vehicle and she confirmed she was the only occupant inside the vehicle during the
incident. I introduced myself to her and asked if she was wil ing to sit inside of my vehicle where I could
conduct an audio recorded interview with her.Ms.Gaddy agreed to my request. I noted Ms. Gady appeared to be
visibly shaken by what she had witnessed and she did not appear to be under the influence of any alcohol or narcotics.
At ap roximately 2107
hours, I proceeded to conduct the first of two audio recorded interviews with Ms.Gaddy under
sworn verbal oath inside of my vehicle. Those present during the course of the interview were Ms. Gaddy and
myself. The interview lasted approximately 25 minutes in length and was recorded in its entirety. At one point
during the interview, Ms.Gaddy and I exited my vehicle and we walked to the western perimeter of the crime
scene and stopped at the Yellow Sherif s Office crime scene tape. From there Ms. Gaddy explained the patrol vehicle
she saw parked, with the lights on, was between the Rentalex sign and the U.S.Storage sign. It should be
noted, from where Ms. Gaddy and 1 were standing on the western perimeter of the crime scene, she was unable
to identify the exact patrol vehicle the deputy exited prior to approaching the subject in red. It should be noted
during the audio recording 1 stated the interv w was being conducted under HCSO investigation 42019-21 1100.
That is incorrect, as the interview should have been conducted under HCSO investigation For:205814 Printed

2019- 21 27 . See the interviw section for further details. A copy of the interview was later impounded into evidence and submitted for transcription
purposes. At the conclusion of the interview, I asked Ms. Gaddy if she was willing to wait
a few minutes until I could update HCSO personnel with the information I learned via her interview. Ms. Gaddy said
that was fine. Ms.Gaddy proceeded back to her vehicle and I updated HCSO personnel to include Detective Florio.
At ap roximately 2143 hours, I
conducted the second interview with Ms.Gaddy inside of my vehicle. The interview was conducted
under sworn verbal oath and recorded in its entirety. Those present were Ms. Gaddy and myself. During
the course of the 2nd interview Ms.Gaddy and I exited Ivy vehicle and proced to walk into the crime
scene area. We remained on the south side of the roadway and walked over to where she could observe the HCSO patrol
vehicle that was parked facing westbound on the north shoulder of Skipper Road. During this walk through. Ms.
Gaddy advised everything happened on the north side of the roadway. She pointed to the vehicle that was
parked on the north shoulder, facing westbound, and stated that was the area where she observed the patrol vehicle parked.
She pointed west of the front end of the patrol vehicle and said that is where the subject in red was
at.See the interview section for further details. At approximately 2200 hours, I
made contact with witness, Jose Delacruz ( white Hispanic male, date of birth 07/04/
1955).Mr.Delacruz was standing with street crimes deputies awaiting to be interviewed by detectives. At ap roximately 2203
hours, I conducted an audio recorded interviw with Mr. Delacruz under sworn verbal oath. Mr.Delacruz
did not appear to be under the influence of alcohol but did advise he had two shots of whiskey around 6:
00 o'clock. Mr.Delacruz advised he was about 3 light poles east of where the shooti actually took place. It should
be noted during the audio recording I stated the interview was being conducted under HCSO investigation # 2019-21
1 100.That is incor ect, as the interview should have been conducted under HCSO investigation #2019-21 1277.See
the interview section for details of the interview. At approximately 2234 hours, I made
contact with Deputy C.Ziel ABN #220973 who advised he collected video surveillance from the U.
S.
Storage at 1108 Skipper Road, Tampa, Florida 33612. This business is located on the north side
of the street slightly east of the where the shooting took place. I reviewed the video surveillance and noted the camera faces
Skipper Road. While reviewing the video surveillance, l observed a subject dressed in al red walking
westbound on the north sidewalk. He appeared to be agitated as I observed him hit the chain link fence. There
was another subject who was riding a bicycle traveling westbound on the northern sidewalk. The subject on the bicycle
was wearing bright colored clothing and continued past the subject dressed in all red.This subject on
the bicycle may be the person Ms. Gaddy was refer ing to during her interview. The subject continued west on the sidewalk.
1 observed a patrol vehicle traveling from east to west on the north side of Skipper Road. I obtained a
copy of the video surveillance from Deputy C.Ziel and provided same to Detective Florio the following day on March
27,2019. At approximately 2251 hours, I responded
to the Circle K (
14517 Nebraska Avenue North, Tampa, Florida 33613) at the southeast corner
of Nebraska Avenue and Skipper Road in attempts to identify the older white male or the black male
on the bicycle as described by Ms. Gaddy. I made contact with the clerk on duty, Giedarilis Sicard. Ms. Sicard was reluctant
to provide her personal information but did provide a phone number of 813- 277-4850. Furthermore, Ms.
Sicard advised a black male calve into the store and was talking about For: 205814 Printed On: May- 01-

witnessing a shooting which occurred down the street on Skipper Road. She described him as a tall black male,
wearing glasses, and riding a bicycle. The black male is between 50 and 60 years old, with facial hair and looks
like he is homeless. She said he comes into the store right after the shooting occurs. She does not know his name
but said he is a regular customer. I was able to obtain video surveillance from the Circle K between 6: 30 P. M.
and 10: 30 P. M. on March 26, 2019. 1 noted the date and time stamp on the live video feed was accurate with my
HCSO issued laptop computer. The purpose for obtaining the surveillance video was to hopefully identify the
individuals described by Ms. Gaddy and attempt to interview them.
Wednesday, March 27, 2019

At approximately 0024 hours, l cleared from the incident scene on Skipper Road and relocated to the
District I Office where I reviewed the video surveillance from the Circle K. While reviewing salve, I observed a
black male enter the Circle K at approximately 7: 48: 00 P. M. He was wearing glasses, fluorescent orange shorts,
a red camouflage vest, with facial hair. This individual appeared to be the same person I observed on video
surveillance obtained from the U. S. Storage. 1 continued to watch the video surveillance in entirety, and I never
observed the older white male described to me by Ms. Gaddy. This information was provided to Det. Florio along
with the video surveillance. The video surveillance was later impounded into evidence by Det. Florio.
At approximately 0323 hours, 1 concluded my tour of duty in regards to this investigation.
This concludes my involvement in this investigation and I have no further information to report at
this time.

I was going to be shot at." And it is not just law enforcement mistaking cell phones for firearms. See

This summary statement regarding' my use of force is made to the best of my
call address on Skipper Road, a middle- aged black malewearing glasses on a phone flagged
me down and pointed to the direction of the suspect, stating " that' s him." I turned
my marked vehicle around to make contact with the suspect. The
suspect was on foot walking away from the call address. I puled up towards the
suspect in my vehicle, parked, and exited the vehicle. I asked the suspect if I could
talk to him for a second. He indicated he did not want to talk. During my initial
observations of him,he was sidestepping, glancing back and forth, and would blade
towards me with his left shoulder. I
began to walk towards him, walking past my front bumper, advising that I just wanted
to get his statement about what happened, try to clear this up, words to that affect.
He appeared very agitated and was acting in a way that I thought he may be getting
ready to run. I was trying to calm him down, both in my tone and in my body language.
As
I walked towards him, he turned to face me. That is the first time I noticed he was
holding a black object in his waistband with his right hand. It ap eared to me to
be a gun. Based on my training and experience, it was in an area consistent where guns
are carried and the manner in which the suspect was holding the object was consistent
with holding a gun. In the split second of seeing this and believing it to be
a gun, 1 drew my weapon. I
recal shouting " drop the gun" repeatedly. I may have also told him to show me his
hands or place his hands up,but under the stress and speed of this incident 1 am not
completely sure of my exact words. The suspect did not comply with any of my commands.
Instead he kept blading towards me,still appearing agitated, looking all around,
and not dropping or moving his hand away from what I beli ved to be the gun.
While his left shoulder was bladed towards me,he then made a movement that appeared
to be positioning the gun towards me with his right hand —
inconsistent With
dropping the gun or moving his hand away from the gun. I thought 1 was about to
be shot and feared for my life. That is when 1 im ediately fired two shots.
prior to firing my weapon did I know or believe the object was a cell phone. I recall
As soon as he fell, I ran to him. As I patted him down, I asked where he was shot.
He indicated his back, which surprised me. I knew 1 did not shoot him from behind.
I turned him over on his stomach and saw one bullet wound near his left shoulder
blade area, which was consistent with the bladed position he had been in. I did not
see an exit wound.

18 A Well, I was like -- when I had turned
19 around, my body was facing the road. And I turned
20 around like this ( indicating). Like put my hands up.
21 And I --
22 Q Okay. Go ahead.
23 A And I clearly had a phone in my hand, so --
24 Q Okay. I could see what you' re
demonstrating, but I want to make sure what' s taken
2511
813) 272- 1814
21
1 down reflects what you' re

demonstrating. And you
2 tell me if I' m saying it wrong. You indicated you
3 raised both of your hands up to about how high,
4 compared to your shoulder, your ears, your top of
5 your head?
6 A It was like compared with my shoulders, like
7 my ears.
8 Q Okay. I think what you' re showing me is
9 when your hands are about even with your ears. Would
10 that be about right?
11 A Yes, sir.
12 Q Okay. And you have both of them with the
13 palms facing the deputy; is that right?
14 A Yes, sir.
15 Q Okay. Did you just -- did -- did you have
16 that -- your cell phone in one of your hands?
17 A Yes, sir.
My right.
18 Q In your right hand. Okay. And I see how
19 you picked it up for me

just a minute ago. But let
20 me ask you, the cell phone that you had then on this
21 day, was it like that one in front of you in -- in --
22 meaning, did it have a dark black side on one side
23 and a -- a like a plastic or a glass shiny front on
24 the other?
25 A Yes, sir.
813) 272- 1814

22
1 Q Kind of like, you know, most cell phones,
2 like mine.
3 A Oh, Yes, sir.
4 Q You know what I' m

saying? The one side is
5 dark black, and the other side is a screen, well, lit
6 up now. So ignore that. That' s my dog. But see it
7 has the glass?
8 A Yes, sir.
9 Q Which side did you have -- as you' re raising
10 it, do you remember which side you had facing the
11 deputy. If you --
12 A I' m not sure.
13 Q Okay. All right. So you -- you raised your
14 hands like you just showed us, up to your ears with
15 your palms facing him with your cell phone in one
16 hand?
17 A Yes, sir.
18 Q What did the deputy do when you put your
19 hands up like that? Did he say anything to you?
20 A No, sir.
21 Q Okay. And what did he do at that point?
22 A He -- I started to turn around, and he still
23 had the gun drawn on me.
24 Q Okay. Turning around in which direction?
25 A Getting ready to run from him.
813) 272- 1814

23
1 Q Okay. So I think I understand from the way
2 you' ve described it to me sitting there today, okay.
3 But for the purpose of what' s being taken down today,
4 is it correct that originally the deputy comes up
5 from behind and parks the car along the side of the
6 road?
7 A Yes, sir.
8 Q And -- and is it my -- is it correct that
9 as -- as
you' ve described it, that you turned kind of
10 a half turn to where you' re -- you are facing the
11 road and looking back at him? Is -- is that right?
12 Or did you turn all the way around so that your front
13 of yours?
14 A I turned all the way around.
15 Q Okay. So at the time that you had your
16 hands up as high as your ears, then would you have
17 been face- to- face with him, meaning your front was
18 seeing his front?
19 A Yes, sir.
20 Q Okay. All right. And then after he pointed
21 the gun at you after

you raised your hands, you
22 indicated you turned to run. Is -- is that right?
23 A Yes, sir.
24 Q Was there anything that I' ve left out that
25 happened in that time between when he told he wanted
813) 272- 1814

24
1 to talk to you until you turned to run that we
2 haven' t already talked about?
3 A I' m not sure what you' re talking about.
4 Q Okay. We' ve gone into some pretty good
5 detail about he -- he said he wanted to talk to you
6 and how you were standing and -- and had the hands
7 raised. Have we covered everything at that point?
8 A Yes, sir.
9 Q Where there any other words that either he
10 said or you said before you turn to run other than --
11 A No, sir.
12 Q he said to you I wanted to talk to you?
13 A No, sir.
14 Q Okay. All right. So when you turned to
15 run --
16 A Excuse me.
17 Q That' s fine. When you turned to run, did
18 you turn to your right or turn to your left to run?
19 Do you remember?
20 A I -- I turned to my right.
21 Q Okay. So you turned to your right to run?
22 A Yes, sir.
23 Q Did you hear anything further from the
24 deputy?
25 A I heard gunshots.

813) 272- 1814
25
1 Q Okay. Had you -- had you -- were you able
2 to even take a step or two or more in the attempt to
3 run before you heard the shots?
4 A I' m not sure.
5 Q Okay. Al right. And I think I understand
6 from what you already told me. But I have to ask
7 specifically. When you last saw the deputy, where
8 was the deputy in relation to his car? Do you
9 understand my question?
10 A No, sir.
11 Q Okay. He parked his car along side the
12 road, right. Is that correct?
13 A Yes, sir.
14 Q Okay. You said you saw him. He had the gun
15 pointed at you as he stood outside of his car behind
16 his door?
17 A Yes, sir.
18 Q Okay. Where was he when you last had your
19 eyes on the deputy? The last time you saw him, where
20 was he before the last -- last time you can
21 remember seeing him, where was he, the deputy?
22 A I' m not sure.
23 Q Okay. All right. Let me ask it this way.
24 Did you ever see the deputy walk towards you?
25 A No --

O
1 Q Okay.
2 A sir.
3 Q I' m sorry?
4 A I said no, sir.
5 Q Oh, okay. Okay. I' m just trying to make
6 sure I cover everything because I know this is
7 putting you through a lot, so I don' t want to forget
8 anything.
9 A Uh - huh.
10 Q Do you remember how many shots you heard?
11 A Like two.
12 Q Okay.
13 A Two shots.
14 Q Okay. Can you tell me why you turned to
15 run?
16 A Because he was trying to kill me.
17 Q Okay. And you thought -- and you thought
18 that -- you felt that way because why? You tell me
19 in your own words.
20 A He was going to kill me.
21 Q And I -- I understand that' s what was in
22 your mind. Can you tell me why you felt that way?
23 A Because like I only like he was going to
24 kill me.
25 Q Okay.

813) 272- 1814
27
1 A That' s why I turned to run to get away from
2 him.
3 Q All right. Did the deputy say anything that
4 you remember about shooting or -- shooting you? Did
5 he say anything like that?
6 A No, sir.
7 Q Did he give you any other directions or
8 instructions or tell you to do anything else other
9 than he wanted to talk to you?
11 Q I' m
sorry. I didn' t hear the last part.
12 A I said no, sir. I' m not sure.
13 Q Okay. All right. Thank you. Other than
14 raising your hands like you showed us a few moments
15 ago where you raised your hands up to your ear level
16 with the palms facing the deputy, before you raised
17 your hands like that, did you make any other
18 movements or gestures with your arms that you can
19 remember?
20 A No, sir.
21 Q Of any kind?
22 A No, sir.
23 Q All right. When you turned to run, tell me
24 how -- where your hands were at that point. Do
25 you do you understand my question?

813) 272- 1814
28
1 A Uh- uh.
2 Q Okay. At some point, you said your hands
3 were up with your palms facing the deputy, right?
4 A Yes, sir.
5 Q And then you decided to turn to run.
6 A Yes, sir.
7 Q When you turned to run, were you -- did you
8 keep your hands up like near

your ears? Or were they
9 dropped in any fashion or lowered or what do --
10 A I' m not sure. I' m not sure.
11 Q Okay.
12 A Just I can' t remember.
13 Q All right. You indicated you turned to run,
14 and you heard two shots; is that right?
15 A Yes, sir.
16 Q Is it correct -- and tell me otherwise if
17 I' m wrong that as we talk about it today, you
18 can' t remember whether you were able to take any
19 steps to run.
20 A No, sir. I' m not -- I can' t remember.
21 Q You can' t remember whether or not you took
22 any steps?
23 A No, sir. I don' t remember.
24 Q You don' t remember.

Okay. All right.
25 When you heard those shots, did you feel any
813) 272- 1814

29
1 pain right away or feel anything?
2 A No, sir.
3 Q Okay. Do you know what happened to you
4 after you heard the shots?
5 A I got shot.
6 Q Okay. But I guess what I mean is, did
7 you -- were -- were you able to remain standing? Or
8 do you know if you fell or anything like that or --

9 A I' m not sure.
10 Q Okay. Do you have any memory of -- of
11 falling to the ground?
12 A Yes, sir.
13 Q Okay. And tell me what you remember in your
14 own words happening after you fell to the ground.
15 A I' m not sure.
16 Q Do you -- do you have a memory of what
17 happened after that?
18 A No, sir.
19 Q It' s my understanding that some emergency
20 medical persons came to where you were to -- to give
21 you medical assistance. Do you have any memory of
22 them giving you medical assistance at that location
23 at the scene where you were shot?
24 A Medical assistance?
25 Q You know, trying to stop bleeding or trying
813) 272- 1814

30
1 to help you in any fashion. You' ve seen an ambulance
2 or,
you know, the fire trucks, the Fire Rescue
3 things?
4 A Well, I do remember that I was coughing up
5 blood.
6 Q Okay.
7 A Yeah.
8 Q All right. Where there people there trying
9 to help you?
10 A Yes, sir. The fire department.
11 Q The fire department. Okay. After you were
12 shot, did you ever see that deputy again that shot
13 you?
14 A No, sir.
15 Q Okay. This -- and I' d like you to describe
16 for me as best as you can.
17 A I' m sorry.
18 Q No. No. You take as much time, as much
19 water as you need. The deputy that you have
20 described as pointing the gun at you, a man or a
21 woman? Was it a man or a woman?
22 A It was a man.
23 Q Okay. As much as you can tell me about how
24 that man looked, what color of his skin or race do
25 you recall that person to be.
813) 272- 1814

31
1 A He was white.
2 Q Okay. Do you remember the color of -- if he
3 had hair, do you remember the color of his hair
4 whether it be dark or light or a bald or anything
5 like that?
6 A I' m not sure.
7 Q Okay. When he had the gun pointed at you,
8 do you remember whether he was pointing or had it in
9 one hand or both hands or do you -- do you recall
10 anything like that?
12 Q Okay. Was it a smaller handgun or a long
13 gun like a rifle?
14 A It was a handgun, like a pistol.
15 Q Okay. What -- as you sit here now many
16 weeks later, what is your memory as to how much time

17 passed between when you first saw the deputy outside
18 of his car when you got shot?
19 A I' m not sure.
20 Q Okay. All right. When you fell to the
21 ground after being shot, do you know what happened to
22 your cell phone?
24 Q At the time that you got shot, do you know
25 whether your cell phone was still in your hand or

813) 272- 1814
32
1 whether it had been put back in your pocket or
2 dropped or anything like that?
4 Q Okay. At some point, they took you to the
5 hospital, obviously, because that' s where you are --
6 are today. Before you were taken from that scene to
7 the hospital, do you remember

any -- any other
8 deputies saying anything near you?
9 A No.
10 Q About anything?
11 A No, sir.
12 Q Do you -- do you remember the ride to the
13 hospital?
14 A Yes, sir.
15 Q Okay. During the hospital, were you in a
16 great deal of pain? Do you remember? Or --
17 A No, sir.
18 Q Okay. And you don' t remember -- I asked you
19 two questions there. I' m sorry. Do you remember,
20 were you in -- in a great deal of pain during the
21 hospital?
22 A No.
23 Q Or during the ride to the hospital, if you
24 remember?
813) 272- 1814

33
1 Q Okay. Did anybody ask you questions during
2 the ride to the hospital that you remember?
3 A I' m not sure.
4 Q Do you remember
anybody, whether it be the
5 Fire Rescue or any deputy. And. I don' t know if -- I
6 don' t know who was in that ride. So I' m just kind of
7 guessing here. Did you remember anybody making
8 statements to you about what happened during the ride
9 to the hospital?
10 A No, sir.
11 Q Okay. Now, this may sound like a dumb
12 question because you already kind of told me this.
13 But when the deputy pointed the gun at you, were you
14 in fear for your life?
15 A Yes, sir.
16 Q And I' m --
I' m trying to be careful so I
17 don' t put words in your mouth. Okay? Were you in
18 fear for your life because of what you saw the deputy
19 do or what he said or both? Or in something that
20 happened to you in the past or --
21 A No. I was fear for my life because of what
22 he -- when he drawed the gun on me.
23 Q Okay. But what -- from that act?
24 A Yes, sir.
25 Q Okay. All right. And this is one of those
813) 272- 1814

34
1 questions when I' m kind of fishing because I -- I --
2 I have not read every police report that was ever

3 created or anything like that. But had you ever had
4 any kind of contact with police where you felt like
5 your life was in danger before, before that day?
6 A I' m not sure.
7 Q Did you understand my question?
8 A No, sir.
9 Q Okay. So -- oh, here' s some -- if we need
10 to stop, we can stop. I' m really close to being
11 done.
12
14 MR. ALVAREZ: Let' s take a short break.
15 ( A discussion was held off the record.)
16 BY MR. PRUNER:
17 Q Okay, I just have a few more
18 questions, and I appreciate your patience with me
19 today. Okay? Before the day that you got shot, it' s
20 my understanding that you' ve had previous contacts
21 with law enforcement officers. Oh, and the
22 circumstances, to me, are not important. But
23 throughout the last few years, you' ve had some
24 contacts where
you -- they' ve come to you or you' ve
25 come to them or
something. You -- and I' m not going

813) 272- 1814
35
1 to go into details. I don' t care about all that.
2 Okay. Is that correct, though, that you' ve had some
3 contacts with law enforcement before?
4 A Yes, sir.
5 Q Okay. In any of those contacts, did -- law
6 enforcement treat you in such a way that you were in
7 fear for your life in the -- in the past?
8 A Yes, sir.
9 Q Okay. Was -- was that once or more than
10 once,
or how many times do you recall that?
11 A More than once.
12 Q All right. And I don' t want to get -- go
13 into all the details of anything that -- that you had
14 contact with law enforcement. But I want to ask you
15 this: Was there ever any time in the past when a law
16 enforcement officer either a Tampa police officer or
17 deputy sheriff had pointed their gun at you before?
18 A Yes, sir.
19 Q Okay. All right. Had there ever been a
20 point in the past where a law enforcement officer
21 shot at you in the past?
22 A No, sir.
23 Q Okay. Had there ever been a point in the
24 past where a law enforcement officer had threatened
25 to shoot you?
813) 272- 1814

36
1 A No, sir.
2 Q Okay. Do you have an idea or as you sit
3 here today I kind of asked this a little bit
4 earlier. I want to try to ask it a different way.
5 Do you have an idea about how long this all took,
6 meaning how long it -- your involvement with the
7 officer took that -- the day that you got shot?
8 A Oh, no. I' m not sure.
9 Q Okay.
10 A I' m not sure.
11 Q All right. And I know I' m kind of jumping
12 around at you because I' m trying to go back in my
13 head the things I may have forgotten to ask you.
14 Okay. When you got shot -- I' m sorry. Let me just
15 forget that.
16 If you can recall, when you heard the two
17 shots, were you already completely turned around or
18 in the process of turning around or just started
19 turning around to run? Or do you -- do you know what
20 I' m asking?
21 A I' m not sure.
22 Q Okay.
23 A No. I don' t know what you' re asking me.
24 Q You don' t know what I' m

asking. Okay?
25 A Can you please repeat that?
813) 272- 1814

37
1 Q Sure. Sure. You' ve -- you' ve told me a
2 couple times and I' m trying not to be repetitive,
3 that at one point after you saw the gun pointed at
4 you, you decided to run.
5 A Yes, sir.
6 Q And that you decided to turn to your right
7 to run?
8 A Yes, sir.
9 Q And at some point, you heard two shots?
10 A Yes, sir.
11 Q Do you remember --
and I know it' s a very
12 detailed question. At the time that you heard the
13 shots, whether you were still turning to your right
14 or you had already completely turned to your right
15 and were facing the opposite direction? Do -- do you
16 know?
17 A I turned to my right.
18 Q Yes.
19 A And like went to running to the opposite
20 direction.
21 Q Okay. If you -- if you know and if you
22 remember, okay, at the time you heard your gunshots,
23 not your gunshots. If you -- at the time you heard
24 the two gunshots.
25 A Excuse me.

813) 272- 1814
38
1 Q No. You' re fine. At the time you heard the
2 two gunshots, was your back completely turned towards
3 the officer so that you could --
4 A Yes, sir.
5 Q -- run?
Okay. And I' m sorry for the delay.
6 I' m just trying to make sure I ask everything we need
7 to talk about today. Okay?
8. Mind if we take a -- a brief break for just
9 a minute or two?
10 MR. ALVAREZ: Sure.
11 MR. PRUNER: I want to make a call -- I want
12 to make a call and make sure that I have covered
13 everything since I' m kind of pitch - hitting and --
14 MR. ALVAREZ: Yeah. That -- that would
15 be -- that would be fine.
16 MR. PRUNER: Okay. Thank you. I just need
17 about two minutes to make a phone call to make
18 sure that I have asked you everything we need to.
19 Okay?
20 ( A discussion was held off the record.)
21 BY MR. PRUNER:
22 Q I just -- I just have a few more
23 questions for you, and then we' ll be done. Okay.
24 So I' m going to go back to when the deputy

25 gets out of the car and you hear him say something to
813) 272- 1814

39
1 you. And I want you to -- to tell me if you can, the
2 exact words the deputy said to you.
3 A He said, hey, I want to talk to you for a
4 second.
5 Q Okay. Can you tell me -- you are very soft
6 spoken.
7 A Me?
8 Q Well, today we are. You know, it' s fine.
9 A You got it recorded.
10 Q Yeah, no. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I heard you.
11 But what I' m

saying -- and you' ll understand where
12 I' m going with this. Okay. When the deputy said
13 that to you, was he using the soft tones that we are
14 today, or did he say it louder or softer? Did he
15 yell? Did he command?
16 A No. He said it like -- he said it loud.
17 Like --
18 Q Okay.
19 A I' m saying he didn' t say it that loud. But
20 he said, hey, I want to talk to you for a second.
21 Q Okay. At any time -- and I kind of asked
22 this in a different way. At any time did the deputy
23 say to you anything like drop the weapon?
24 A No, sir.
25 Q Okay. Or put the weapon down? Did he say
813) 272- 1814

40
1 anything like that?
2 A No, sir.
3 Q Are you
4 MR. DAVIS: Are you okay?
5 THE WITNESS: Yeah.
6 MR. DAVIS: I saw you moving around in the
7 chair.
8 THE WITNESS: No. I had to. No. I don' t
9 want to get my butt sore.
10 BY MR. PRUNER:
11 Q Oh, okay. And is it correct -- and if I' m
12 wrong you tell me, okay. Because this is -- I
13 want -- I want it to be what you remember. Is it
14 correct that you never saw the deputy get out from
15 behind his door?
16 A No, sir.
17 Q That' s not correct or --
18 A No, sir.
19 Q Okay. Now, let me ask it -- I think I did a
20 double negative here. Did you ever see the deputy
21 get out from behind his open door?
22 A No, sir.
23 Q Okay. I thought I understood you correctly.
24 All right. After you got struck, did you hear
25 any deputy curse?
813) 272- 1814

41
1 A Well, yes.
2 Q Tell me about that, please.
3 A He was like F, S, you know, all types of
4 curse words.
5 Q Do you know what deputy said that?
6 A The deputy who shot me.
7 Q Okay. Do you know where he was at that
8 time, if he was still near his car or he was near you
9 or do you know?
10 A No. He was still by his car.
11 Q Okay. Was he -- in -- in your mind -- I' m
12 trying to get your understanding. Was he cursing at
13 you or was he cursing in frustration?
14 A He was
cursing in frustration, like he was
15 mad. Yes.
16 Q Okay. But okay. Did -- as you remember,
17 did any deputy curse at you, direct any of this
18 profanity
19 A No, sir.
20 Q towards you? Okay. is there
21 anything about that night -- because it was about
22 7: 46, 7: 45, right around sunset. Is there anything
23 about that night that you remember that we haven' t
24 talked about?
25 A No, sir.
813) 272- 1814

42
1 Q Okay.
2 A I' m not sure.
3 Q Are there any other details that I -- that
4 maybe I didn' t cover about your contact or
5 interaction or
your -- or seeing that deputy? Any
6 other details that we haven' t talked about that you
7 remember?
8 A No, sir. I don' t remember.
9 Q All right. All right, I appreciate
10 you talking to me today. I hope your recovery
11 continues, and you can get home soon. Okay, sir.
12 A Thank you, sir.
13 Q Thank you. All right.
14 THE COURT REPORTER: You guys got anything?
15 MR. PRUNER: If you want to. I' m sorry. If
16 you wanted, sure.

813) 272- 1814

43
1 EXAMINATION
2 BY MR. DAVIS:
3 Q Yeah. He asked you a question about coming
4 from behind the door. Do you know what that term
5 means or that phrase?
6 A After when he shot me, I' m not sure if he
7 came around the door or -- I' m not sure because I was
8 on the ground bleeding and coughing up blood, so I' m
9 not sure.
10 MR. DAVIS: That' s it.
11 MR. PRUNER: Okay. Thank you, again,
12 I appreciate your cooperation with us today.
13 Thanks.
14 THE WITNESS: You' re welcome.

21 could -- if we want. Yeah. One of the questions
22 you asked, is why did you turn around. Did you
23 fully get an answer, get a full answer to that?
24 MR. PRUNER: I -- I thought I did. I mean,
25 as best as he could articulate, I thought. And
813) 272- 1814

44
1 he said because he thought you were going to get
2 killed.
