STATEMENT OF PROBABLE CAUSE
I am a Lieutenant in the Ridgeway County Sheriff’s Office and the Chief Detective of 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 25th December 2020. I
have been a Detective with the CID since March 12th, 2022. During my tenure as a patrol deputy, I
gained extensive knowledge and experience in field investigations as well as major organized crime. At
the time of my assignment to the CID, I was further trained in investigative procedures. Since then, I
have worked in numerous investigations and operations pertaining to firearm crime (including
trafficking and unlawful sale), government corruption, homicides, and other State offenses. I currently
lead the CID and I’m responsible for the day-to-day management of the division’s activities, as well as
educating future and current detectives on investigative work.
This statement is being submitted in support of a criminal information alleging that
OOGACVOID, violated the following state criminal laws: 3 S.C.C § 09 (First-Degree Murder),
3 S.C.C § 08 (Attempted Murder), 5 S.C.C § 08 (Unlawful Possession of Government-Issued
Equipment), and 5 S.C.C § 04 (Brandishing). This statement is based on my personal knowledge,
information provided to me by other law enforcement agents, law enforcement records, witness
interviews, and my training and experience, as well as the training and experience of other law
enforcement agents. Because this statement is being submitted for the limited purpose of
establishing probable cause in support of 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.
On the 21st of January at approximately 1233 hours, I was on duty and patrolling
Ridgeway County as a sworn member of the Ridgeway County Sheriff's Office. I was
performing my duties in a marked Percivel police vehicle, bearing the distinctive Ridgeway
County Sheriff's Office livery prominently featuring the word "SHERIFF" in gold bold lettering
on both sides of the vehicle. Additionally, I was wearing a complete uniform, including a khaki
shirt with patches on both shoulders displaying the Sheriffs Office logo and a patrol vest that
displayed the clearly written text "SHERIFF" on the front and back. While proceeding
northbound on the small bridge towards Sterling Heights, I attempted to cross the bridge when a
black Actila, operating at an excessive speed, sideswiped and collided with the front of my patrol
car. Recognizing the vehicle as belonging to OogaCVOID, a suspect involved in an earlier
shooting incident, I hastily exited my patrol car, seeking cover behind the trunk due to my
knowledge of OogaCVOID being armed and dangerous. OogaCVOID emerged from his vehicle,
brandishing a pistol and firing multiple shots that struck me. In response, I discharged my
Stetson M2-A, landing several shots, but OogaCVOID managed to overpower me, killing me.
Subsequently, heading southbound, a gray Rodeo driven by Kenzodownload came to a halt on
the small bridge. Exiting his vehicle with a Wesler shotgun, Kenzodownload engaged
OogaCVOID in a brief gunbattle. Ultimately, Kenzodownload successfully killed OogaCVOID.”
I thoroughly reviewed the video evidence, and I conclude that the events shown in the video
adequately represent the complainant’s statement. Furthermore, I interviewed the complainant on
February 3rd, 2024, in which the complainant reaffirmed the statements (Exhibit B).
On February 3rd, 2024, I reached out to Kenzodownload (Exhibit C), an individual who
engaged the suspect during the incident, and subsequently killed them in self-defense. As seen in
Exhibit A, Kenzodownload arrives at the scene in a gray Rodeo Covered, immediately after the
complainant is killed, and lawfully opens fire at the suspect. Kenzodownload reaffirmed the facts
already established, and furthermore added that he believes the suspect was utilizing a Stetson
M2-A as their weapon. In Exhibit A, the suspect’s weapon cannot be directly established, likely
due to a game bug preventing the weapon to be visible in the suspect’s hands.
On February 6th, 2024, I contacted the suspect for a voluntary interview over Discord
(Exhibit D). In this interview, the suspect openly admitted to affiliating themselves with crime,
mostly shootouts. When shown Exhibit A to the suspect, they recalled the incident and
commented “hell fucking yeah”, and “i remember slaughtering that pig”. When asked about the
motive for killing the Deputy, the suspect affirmed that it was just for the sake of shooting.
Furthermore, the suspect added that he had committed other homicides that day as well. The
suspect also confirmed that they were utilizing a Stetson M2-A (no flashlight attachment), during
the incident.
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.
