STATEMENT OF PROBABLE CAUSE
I, CheezIt110, being duly sworn, state as follows:
I am a Detective II in the Ridgeway County Sheriff’s Office and a Detective in the Criminal
Investigations Division (hereinafter “CID”). As a law enforcement officer, I am empowered to conduct
investigations. I have been employed with the Sheriff’s Office since August 6th, 2022. I have
investigated a multitude of cases involving illegal possession and distribution of firearms, firearms
crime, and organized crime.
This affidavit is being submitted in support of a criminal information alleging that USERNAME,
violated the following state criminal laws: 3 S.C.C § 10 (First-Degree Murder), 5 S.C.C § 03 (Unlawful
Display of a Deadly Weapon), and 5 S.C.C § 05 (Unlawful Discharge of a Firearm).
This affidavit is based on my personal knowledge, information provided to me by other law
enforcement agents, law enforcement records, court-authorized searches, witness interviews, and my
training and experience, as well as the training and experience of other law enforcement agents.
Because this affidavit is being submitted for the limited purpose of establishing probable cause in
support of a criminal information, I have not included each and every fact known to me concerning this
investigation. I have only set forth the facts that I believe are necessary to establish probable cause that
the suspect violated the state criminal laws set forth herein.
As shown by Exhibit A, on January 30, 2024, at 8:27 PM, the complainant was on the SPS team
and standing within the Sterling Gun Store. They exited the building, where boosta_z was standing with
a Cline 911 upholstered and in hand, pointing down. This was in plain view of others, including
complainant iiKoalaXXS and an unidentified individual in a yellow rodeo. Boosta_z said “hey i have a
question about sps”, and complainant iiKoalaXXS stood still. Boosta_z then pointed their Cline at the
complainant, repeatedly shooting and killing them. This discharge of the defendant’s firearm occurred
within Sterling city limits, and without legal justification. iiKoalaXXS was unarmed and posed no
threat.
Upon interviewing the complainant, as shown in Exhibit B, they claimed that they have no prior
relations with this individual. This, compounded with the sudden yet deliberate nature of the killing in
Exhibit A, makes it clear that this was an intentional killing, but not one with enough evidence to
support claims of malice aforethought.
I swear that all statements made in this statement of probable cause are true and correct to the best of
my knowledge under the pains and penalties of perjury.
