PROBABLE CAUSE STATEMENT
Date Written JULY 24, 2026
Supporting the Case of STATE OF RIDGEWAY V. CERTDOM, NOAHBADNOLIE, DPSBADATJOB
I, e_lzu, being duly sworn, state as follows:
INTRODUCTION AND OFFICER BACKGROUND
[1] I am a Deputy First Class in the Ridgeway County Sheriff’s Office, and I am responsible for conducting
criminal investigations as a Detective in the Criminal Investigations Division (hereinafter “CID”). As a criminal
investigator, I am empowered to apply for a search warrant and conduct investigations.
[2] I have been employed with the Sheriff’s Office since December 25th, 2020. I have been a Detective with the
CID since March 12th, 2022. I am a licensed attorney in the State of Ridgeway, with license number 13103.
[3] 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 led the CID
for about nine and a half months. During my leadership, I was responsible for the day-to-day management of the
division’s activities, as well as educating future and current detectives on investigative work. I continued
investigative work in an oversight position for an extended period of time until I stepped down to continue my
career as a Detective.
[4] This statement is being submitted in support of a criminal information alleging that CERTDOM,
NOAHBADNOLIE AND DPSBADATJOB, violated the following state criminal laws:
1. R.C.C. § 3.01 (Murder in the First Degree)
2. R.C.C. § 2.33 (Unlawful Discharge of a Firearm)
3. R.C.C. § 2.36 (Brandishing)
4. R.C.C. § 2.29 (Unlawful Possession of a Firearm)
5. R.C.C. § 5.04 (Obstruction of Transportation Personnel)
6. R.C.C. § 4.01(b) (Arson in the Second Degree)
7. R.C.C. § 4.18 (Trespassing)
8. R.C.C. § 4.08 (Possession Of Burglary Tools)
[5] This statement is based on my personal knowledge, law enforcement records, witness interviews, and my
training and experience, as well as the training and experience of other law enforcement agents.

[6] Because this statement 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.
STATEMENT
BACKGROUND
[7] ASPENFUN (hereinafter “the complainant”), a Ridgeway Department of Transportation (RDOT) tow
operator, as well as a Ridgeway County Sheriff’s Office (RCSO) Deputy and a Ridgeway State Police (RSP) Trooper,
were shot and killed by CERTDOM and NOAHBADNOLIE on July 11th, 2026, near the Sterling Heights gas station.
[8] The complainant respawned at the RDOT headquarters located in Palmer, where he was again shot and
killed by DPSBADATJOB while the complainant was taking his lawful firearm from his van.
[9] Following this, DPSBADATJOB destroyed the van and its contents owned by the complainant by shooting
and setting the vehicle on fire.
[10] The complainant submitted a criminal tip to the CID on July 11th, 2026, along with a video clip displaying
the incident.
FIRST INCIDENT
[11] In the video evidence submitted by the complainant, the complainant is driving an RDOT Highline Flatbed
as part of his duties as a tow operator when suspects CERTDOM and NOAHBADNOLIE maneuver and stop in front
of the truck in their blue Actila Sport at the intersection by Sterling gas station.
[12] Following this, the suspects exit their vehicle, draw their firearms, aim, and open fire at the complainant as
well as RCSO Deputy HxgoNix riding as a passenger in the Highline Flatbed. RSP Trooper Rar3Bitcoin, who was
operating a marked RSP Pioneer, was behind the truck and was also fired upon by the suspects during the
shooting.
[13] The complainant and the Deputy are immediately struck and killed by the gunfire. The State Trooper
manages to return fire and kill CERTDOM, but is killed immediately after by gunfire from NOAHBADNOLIE.
[14] The complainant was a uniformed RDOT operator driving a marked RDOT tow truck. The Deputy and State
Trooper were clearly identifiable as peace officers by their uniforms and the marked patrol vehicle the Trooper was
driving. They were on duty and patrolling, clearly conducting lawful duties when the incident took place.
[15] Based on my experience and training as a law enforcement officer, I can identify the firearms used by the
suspects to carry out the shooting as Stetson Cardiac-5s. The Cardiac-5 is an automatic submachine gun, requiring
an Advanced Firearms License to possess. The State Police have not licensed the suspects, and they are therefore
not legally allowed to possess such firearms. This can be referenced by viewing the State Police database.
SECOND INCIDENT
CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS DIVISION RIDGEWAY COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE
CASE NUMBER INVESTIGATION REPORT DATE
CID-0714 07/29/2026
[16] As the complainant respawned at the RDOT headquarters in Palmer, he proceeded to spawn his personal
blue Gridlock bearing plate ABO944 in the headquarters’ garage. The complainant equipped himself with a
Cardiac-5. The complainant is a current holder of an Advanced Firearms License. This can be referenced by viewing
the State Police database.
[17] Following this, the complainant proceeded to despawn the blue Gridlock in order to spawn a red Gridlock
bearing plate COR132, where he stored the .45 ACP ammunition for the firearm. As the complainant opened the
trunk of the van, DPSBADATJOB forcibly entered the garage and immediately opened fire at the complainant, killing
him.
[18] After killing the complainant, DPSBADATJOB proceeded to direct automatic gunfire at the red Gridlock
owned by the complainant. As a result of the shooting, the vehicle was set on fire and destroyed with the contents
therein.
[19] DPSBADATJOB was using a Cardiac-5, which I can identify based on its unique shape, color, size, and
gunfire, to kill the complainant and destroy his vehicle. DPSBADATJOB is not a holder of an Advanced Firearms
License and is not lawfully permitted to possess an automatic firearm. This can be referenced by viewing the State
Police database.
[20] The RDOT headquarters is not accessible by civilians (except the lobby). The doors therein can only be
opened by persons holding correct permissions, mainly government employees. As such, DPSBADATJOB had to
use a lockpick to break and enter the building unlawfully. The garage of the headquarters cannot be accessed by
any other methods.
[21] It can also be seen at 00:53 in Exhibit A that DPSBADATJOB is holding a lockpick, actively lockpicking the
door to exit the headquarters.
COMPLAINANT INTERVIEW
[22] I interviewed the complainant on July 19 and 20, 2026. During the interview, the complainant provided
multiple pieces of evidence of similar incidents with NOAHBADNOLIE and DPSBADATJOB, where the suspects had
shot and killed the complainant. Further, in an extended video of the incident, NOAHBADNOLIE had attempted to
shoot and kill the complainant minutes before the incident at hand.
[23] The complainant estimates that he lost approximately 2,145 dollars, plus the cost of the van as his van was
destroyed by DPSBADATJOB.
[24] The complainant believes that NOAHBADNOLIE just wanted to kill him. For CERTDOM and DPSBADATJOB,
he believes that they wanted to get the complainant’s stashes destroyed. The complainant provided video clips of
CERTDOM and DPSBADATJOB destroying the complainant’s vehicles before.
[25] The complainant believes the suspects specifically target him because he is “the only one who tow[s] and
impounds their vehicles the most”.
NOAHBADNOLIE INTERVIEW

CASE NUMBER INVESTIGATION REPORT DATE
CID-0714 07/29/2026
[26] I interviewed NOAHBADNOLIE on July 21 and 22, 2026. NOAHBADNOLIE was not in police custody at the
time of the interview and was informed that the interview was voluntary and that he did not have any obligation to
answer the questions presented.
[27] When asked about the incident, NOAHBADNOLIE responded that “I was just driving around trying to find
cops and I just see Aspen and state police and just shot them”.
[28] When asked whether the suspect had some kind of an issue with the complainant specifically,
NOAHBADNOLIE responded “[h]e tows everyone's cars and call it "ragebait".
[29] When asked whether the suspect tried to stop the complainant from towing the suspects’ vehicles by
shooting the complainant and blowing up the complainant’s stuff, the suspect responded “I shoot your so call
"peace officers" and he happens to be on the crossfire”.
CERTDOM INTERVIEW
[30] I interviewed CERTDOM on July 21 and 22, 2026. CERTDOM was not in police custody at the time of the
interview and was informed that the interview was voluntary and that he did not have any obligation to answer the
questions presented.
[31] When asked if the suspect was familiar with NOAHBADNOLIE and DPSBADATJOB, the suspect responded
“yea those my boys”.
[32] When asked whether the suspect knew the complainant, the suspect responded “[y]es, hes a degenerate
RCTA tow truck driver” and that “[f]or far too long have we been oppressed by individuals of the Transportation
Department, more specifically aspenfun.” The suspect proceeded to explain more about his claims of oppression
regarding the complainant.
[33] The suspect claims that the allegations and evidence against him are fabricated.
MOTIVE
[34] During the interview with the complainant, he explained that the suspects likely targeted the complainant
specifically due to the fact that the complainant often tows the suspects' vehicles as a part of his lawful duties as a
tow operator.
[35] The complainant added that the suspects also attempted to blow up the complainant’s vehicles where he
legally stores firearms and other material. The complainant provided video clips of similar incidents where the
suspects have been involved as well as their presumed accomplice.
[36] CERTDOM claimed that he (and others) have long been “oppressed” by RDOT and specifically the
complainant. NOAHBADNOLIE also explained that the complainant tows everyone’s cars and calls it “ragebait”.
[37] Based on my knowledge and experience as a peace officer and a criminal investigator, I believe the
suspects carried out these attacks to negatively affect the work of government employees and peace officers and
to cause havoc within the county.

AFFILIATION
[38] Based on my knowledge and experience as a peace officer and criminal investigator, I have reason to
believe that the suspects are affiliated and had planned, to some degree, their actions beforehand.
[39] In the interview with CERTDOM, he mentioned that NOAHBADNOLIE and DPSBADATJOB are his “boys”,
when asked whether he was familiar with the aforementioned.
[40] Further, DPSBADATJOB and NOAHBADNOLIE are friends on Roblox currently. All three suspects are also
friends with an individual named “ILLUSIONALMONKEY1”, who appears with NOAHBADNOLIE in multiple videos
submitted by the complainant during his interview.
APPENDIX OF EVIDENCE
[41] The affiant submits the following pieces of documentary evidence:
EXHIBIT ID SUMMARY
Exhibit A Initial video recording of the incident
Exhibit B Extended video
Exhibit C Complainant interview (contains other clips submitted by complainant)
Exhibit D NOAHBADNOLIE interview
Exhibit E CERTDOM interview
Exhibit F Advanced Firearm License database
[42] I was not able to locate DPSBADATJOB in any Ridgeway-related communication platforms and, as such,
was not able to contact him.
CONCLUSION
[43] Based on the foregoing, your affiant submits there is probable cause to believe that CERTDOM,
NOAHBADNOLIE, and DPSBADATJOB violated R.C.C. § 3.01, which makes it a crime to kill another in the course of
committing or attempting to commit kidnapping, burglary, robbery, arson, obstruction, or retaliation; or who is a
peace officer or civil service employee discharging a lawful duty, with the knowledge that said person is a peace
officer or civil service employee; with malice aforethought.
[44] Based on the foregoing, your affiant submits there is probable cause to believe that CERTDOM,
NOAHBADNOLIE, and DPSBADATJOB violated R.C.C. § 2.33, which makes it a crime to knowingly discharge a
firearm within city limits or in residential areas without legal reason to do so such as a permit or for self defense.
[45] Based on the foregoing, your affiant submits there is probable cause to believe that CERTDOM,
NOAHBADNOLIE, and DPSBADATJOB violated R.C.C. § 2.36, which makes it a crime to, except in self defense, draw
or exhibit any firearm in the presence of any other person, whether loaded or unloaded, in a rude, angry, or
threatening manner, or who unlawfully uses a firearm in any fight or quarrel.
