I asked Amanda if she understood her rights and she stated "yes". While arresting Amanda, she stated she needed belongings from inside, such as a coat and her driver's license, to go to jail with her. While inside Amanda's apartment I observed there were items strewn about the apartment to include broke glass in the downstairs bathroom. Officer Michels took photographs of Kalvin, Amanda, and the apartment, which were later copied to the V:drive. I completed a criminal citation #7Z0095302 for Amanda for DV Assault 4. I provided Amanda with a copy and included a copy in the case jacket. I completed a DV supplemental form and included it in the case jacket. This case is cleared by adult arrest and is being forwarded to the City of Auburn Prosecutors Office for
