Your Affiant has also participated in numerous narcotics and financial investigations with the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigations (IRS-Cl) relevant to violations of State and Federal Money Laundering statutes. Your Affiant has also received specialized training in narcotics investigations from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and related Money-Laundering matters from the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigations (IRS-Cl) Your affiant is also trained and certified in the use of Cellebite/UFED electronic forensic data extractions, and affiant has had substantial experience in extracting electronic/digital data from various types, makes, and models of electronic/digital devices including cell phones, tablets, and GPS devices. Additionally, affiant has spent hundreds of hours on numerous cases analyzing such extracted data and information. In addition, Your Affiant has experience in the execution of financial search warrants, narcotics search warrants, debriefing defendants, informants, and other witnesses/individuals who have personal knowledge of the amassing, spending, converting, transporting, distributing, laundering, and concealing of proceeds derived from the distribution of illegal drugs Your Affiant has used a variety of investigative techniques during his investigations including, but not limited to, electronic surveillance, visual surveillance, the use of confidential sources and the use of undercover agents. Information contained in this Affidavit is derived from Your Affiant's knowledge of, and prior experiences in financial and narcotics investigations; information obtained during interviews with drug traffickers Page S of 7 EVIDENTIARY SEARCH/SEIZURE WARRANT LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043familiar with this drug trafficking organization, and review of reports prepared by special agents with DEA as well as other federal, state and local law enforcement agencies. As a result of Your Affiant’s participation in this investigation, my conversations with, and review of reports prepared by HIDTA Task Force Officers as well as other federal, state and local law enforcement agencies, | am familiar with all aspects of this investigation as articulated in this Affidavit. Information contained in this Affidavit includes the results of review of property records and other information obtained from public sources; physical surveillance; information from cooperating witnesses and law enforcement personnel, YOUR AFFIANT’S PROBABLE CAUSE The recitation of facts contained in this Affidavit is not meant to be a complete narrative of all information that is known to Your Affiant, but only a summary of facts to necessitate the establishment of sufficient probable cause, in support of this affidavit, for an Evidentiary Search Warrant. The decedent was murdered as she arrived to prepare for a physical fitness class she was to teach on the morning of the 18" of April 2016 at the Creekside Church, Midlothian, Ellis County, Texas 76065. The suspect in this case is currently unknown and at large. The unknown suspect dressed in police tactical/riot gear, obtained forcible entry to the location of the murder, to-wit, the Creekside Church, and appears on the Creekside Church surveillance videos. The unknown suspect is the only person detected within the building during a period of approximately thirty (30) minutes when the victim and decedent, Terri “Missy” Leann Bevers, was murdered, and it is reasonably believed that the said unknown suspect is responsible in part or in full for murdering Ms. Bevers. In the course of our investigation we have had multiple references to the Decedent's social media accounts, specifically her Linkedin account. LinkedIn is a social media networking service used to make connections to others. In the course of our investigation, we have received information from interviews conducted with persons of interest and persons close to the victim that the decedent was a regular user of LinkedIn. During one such interview a friend of the victim told law enforcement that less than three days before the murder, the victim showed this friend a private message from the victim's LinkedIn account. The message was from a male unknown to them both, and they both agreed that the message was creepy and strange. This friend could not recall the person's name on the account. Additionally, law enforcement has identified another person of interest through evidence gathered and an interview was conducted. This person of interest confirmed that they Page 6 of 7 EVIDENTIARY SEARCHISEIZURE WARRANT Linkedin Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043had engaged in a series of communications with the decedent while on the Linkedin Social Media Service some time starting around (January 2016) until her death that ultimately turned flirtatious and familiar. An electronic forensic data extraction of the cell phones belonging to the decedent and the identified person of interest confirms that the communications using Linkedin occurred. The content of the recovered communications appears intimate in nature. The extracted information also showed that these communications were deleted after the conversation ended and were only able to be partially recovered. Your Affiant has probable cause to believe that the decedent was in contact with several people through the LinkedIn service who are of direct interest to this investigation.
