Incident # 12345F
Name: Jessie Mobley #15610
On Tuesday November 4, 2012, at approximately 18:00 hours, I proceeded to Florida Southern
College, Ordway, Criminology Lounge, Polk County, Florida in reference to a deceased female
discovered after a 911 call.
I arrived at approximately 18:06 hours, made contact with Deputy J. Gardner and was directed
through the scene.
I was advised that the department received a 911 call from a neighbor about shouting, a scuffle,
and gunshots. When Deputy Gardner arrived at the scene the deceased female was found and
a suspect was transported to the hospital with life threatening injuries.
The scene is described as the Ordway Criminology Lounge located on the south side of the
roadway facing north.
The apparent point of entry is the northern and only door to the lounge room.
From the entry point looking into the room, along the eastern wall there was a stand-alone
chalk board, two chairs, a five-headed lamp, and a small desk/side table. Located to the west of
the two chairs there was a deceased female lying on her back and her head was oriented
towards the southeastern corner of the room. The female looked as if as if she suffered several
puncture wounds. There was also an apparent blood trail on the floor running parallel to the
body but to the north of it. To the south of the body, along the southern wall of the room there
was a television on a rolling stand and a large table. Along the western wall were a lamp with
one round shade and a small cart with a microwave on it to the north of the lamp. Pushed off
the wall a couple of feet to the east was another large table. The table had three overturned
chairs around it. There was an overturned chair at the southwestern corner of the table,
another closer to the southeastern corner, and the last was closest to the northeastern corner
of the large table. In between the two chairs to the east of the table, I located a handgun and
two spent bullet casings. The casings looked to have been from a .40 caliber weapon. Also,
underneath the overturned chair that was farthest to the north, I found a knife coated in a red
substance. On the northern wall close to the western corner there was two chairs and further
east on the wall was a mounted flat screen television. To the east of the television screen there
was a bullet hole in the wall and some blood spatter. The bullet hole and blood was just to the
west of the point of entry/exit on the northern wall.
The apparent point of exit is also the door located on the northern wall.
I photographed the scene as observed on arrival using a digital camera.
I obtained the following measurements of the scene:
North-South Wall: 17’ 15”
East-West Wall: 17’ 6”
