A bizarre call to a Troy hotel unearthed a slew of possible crimes linked to the people inside one room, including kidnapping, drug use, mail theft, identity theft, lying several times to officers and kicking out the window of a police car.
At 6:27 a.m. May 20, Troy police officers were called to the Hawthron Suites at 2600 Livernois Road for a welfare check.
Officials said the woman who called said her name was “Mailey” and that she had “awoken from a dead sleep” because of a disturbance. She asked to meet police near the main hotel lobby, according to authorities.
When police arrived, they said there was nobody near the lobby, so they asked dispatch to call the woman back and meet them outside.
Shortly afterward, a man and a woman walked up to police, officials said. The woman identified herself as “Mailey” and the man identified himself as Justin Vita-Purnell, according to police.
An officer said he couldn’t find anyone with the name the woman provided, and after asking her name multiple times, she gave them her real name
The woman, 19, insisted that she had given police her correct name the whole time, police said. “Even though she did not,” the report reads.
She said the reason she had called police was to have her brother and her cousin, Vita-Purnell, removed from her hotel room because they were being loud, according to authorities.
Florida warrants Police said the 19-year-old woman’s Law Enforcement Information Network showed a full extradition warrant out of Miami-Dade County, Florida, for narcotics and a Computerized Criminal History for loitering, multiple offenses of drug paraphernalia and multiple offenses of narcotic possession.
Vita-Purnell showed a warrant block on his driver’s licenses out of Ohio, which means he would be having bench warrants for failing to show up for arraignment on an unauthorized use of a motor vehicle charge, according to authorities. Those were not currently in the system, officials said.
Officials in Miami-Dade County said they would pick the woman up. She was put in handcuffs and placed in the back of a patrol vehicle, police said.
Vita-Purnell was allowed to leave the scene and returned to the hotel room, police said.
Men return to lobby A short time later, Vita-Purnell returned with another man, who said his name was Rocky Hernandez, according to officials.
Police said Hernandez, 27, and Vita-Purnell, 24, walked aggressively toward officers and asked what was going on.
Hernandez said the 19-year-old woman is his wife and wanted to know what was going on, officials said.
Police said Hernandez also had a full extradition warrant out of Miami-Dade County for narcotics. They said they would also pick him up. He was put in handcuffs and placed in a police car.
Officials said Hernandez showed a Computerized Criminal History for domestic violence, multiple offenses of battery, multiple offenses of cocaine possession, multiple offenses of grand theft larceny, multiple offenses of burglary, multiple offenses of resist officer, fleeing and eluding, robbery, firearm offenses and a felony firearm violation from October 2020 in Michigan.
Hotel room discovery
Police spoke to hotel workers, who said the room was the registered to the 19-year-old woman. They asked that anyone else in the room be evicted, officials said.
When three officers went to the room, the door was open and nobody was inside, authorities said.
Police said they found meth pipes in plain view.
Vita-Purnell was brought up to the room, and officials asked him what belongings he needed, police said. He said he needed a clothes bag and two Gucci bags and pointed them out to police, according to authorities.
Due to the criminal histories of the people involved in the situation, police got consent to search the property before turning it over to Vita-Purnell in case there were weapons inside, according to officials.
Vita-Purnell said there weren’t any weapons or illegal items in his property, but police said they found a tan and silver mechanical stiletto knife.
“Oh, I forgot about that,” Vita-Purnell said, according to police. He was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon, officers said.
Police said they searched the rest of the belongings and found several credit and debit cards, various identification documents, mail, a laptop computer and a thumb drive.
Vita-Purnell’s Florida identification was also in the bag with the other documents, officials said. He said the laptop belonged to him, too, police said.
While police were in the hotel room another officer from outside said help was needed because Hernandez had kicked out the window of a police car. Officers ran outside and saw Hernandez was yelling out an open window with shattered glass all over the ground, authorities said.
Woman inside police car Police released video from inside a police cruiser that showed the 19-year-old woman arguing with officers and kicking at the door.
Here’s the full transcription from the video:
Woman: “Oh my God, hello? Hello? Hello? Hello? Hello?
An officer came over to the cruiser and opened the door.
Woman: “Can I please talk to my man?”
Officer: “No.”
Woman. “I need to. Why? Why am I under arrest?”
Her foot was blocking the door from closing, and video shows the officer bending down to remove it so he could close the door. He eventually forced the woman back onto the seat so he could shut the door. What happened in between him moving her foot and pushing her back is blocked by the woman.
Woman: “Why is he under arrest? He didn’t do nothing. Ow! He didn’t do nothing.”
She was on her back in the seat and started kicking the door of the cruiser with one leg and then the next. In all, she kicked it about 15 times.
She sat up, looked out the window, leaned back, gave the window one last kick and then straightened up again.
Link please.
Need to send these losers to GITMO!!!
Gee, I’m glad that they are Hispanic. I’d hate for it to be an anti-black issue. /Sarc.
Hope we find out what happens to these “gentleman” and their “thing”.
