PURPOSE
This application is submitted in support of my request for the issuance of an arrest warrant for
Cesar Tirando for Grand Larceny in Second Degree and Falsifying Business Records in First
Degree. Cesar Tirando further describes as a Hispanic adult male; 75in; 195 lbs; 33 years old.

OVERVIEW
Through our investigation, it has been determined that Cesar Tirado began his employment as
a letter carrier for the Freeport Post Office with the U.S. Postal Service on August 2, 1997. In
July 2001 Mr. Tirado sustained an injury while working. These records were provided via his
previous employer.

Tirado submitted a claim for compensation from his injury with the U.S. Department of Labor
requesting compensation on July 6, 2001.
On January 10, 2003, Tirado received his first check. This compensation received for job-related
injuries is offset by any additional income earned from another employer since the disability
was granted.

In April 2005, during a review of Tirando’s disability status we discovered multiple documents
identifying Tirado to be an owner and worker for "Cesar and Palin Barbershop", located at 160
Hempstead Turnpike, in West Hempstead. Upon finding this information, video surveillance was
set up outside of the aforementioned barbershop. This surveillance shows the defendant’s
employment, by depicting Tirando entering and leaving the barbershop on a regularly scheduled
routine. It also depicts Tirando working in the establishment.

As a part of our investigation, we filed an affidavit to record a conversation with Cesar Tirando
at his place of work in the barbershop while he was working on December 11th 2005. On this
occasion I was sent into the barbershop, scheduled an appointment with the defendant and he cut
my hair. During this time I recorded a conversation with him where he said he opened his shop
in 2003 and has been working there since that time.

I was also able to speak with 2 informants, Jermoy Kurshaw and Penelope Hinkley. Both of
whom have been regular clients of "Cesar and Palin Barbershop", since it opened in 2003. They
both confirmed that Cesar Tirando is their stylist and has been attending them personally since
2003.

We also searched the records at the Nassau County Clerk’s Office where we found certificates
filed that show that the defendant has been an owner of the barbershop since September 2003.

Since 2003, Tirado has filed more than 12 forms with the U.S. The Department of Labor
denied he has worked at all since his injury. Tirado has received $85,317.51 in federal
compensation from October 4, 2003, to December 22, 2006.

PROBABLE CAUSE
Cesar Tirando has been denying his employment status since he received a work related injury in
July of 2001. He received his first payment from the government as compensation for his injury
in 2003. In 2003, Tirando opened a barbershop and has been working in said shop since 2003,
while still claiming he has on 12 forms filed with The Department of labor and has received
$85,317.51 in federal compensation from October 4, 2003, to December 22, 2006.

This affidavit does not include all of the facts known to me, but only those facts relevant and
sufficient to establish probable cause

CONCLUSION
Based on the facts provided in this affidavit ,I am requesting a judge to authorize the
arrest of Mr. Cesar TiradoCesar Tirando committed the offense of Grand Larceny in the
second degree in violation of Utah Criminal Code 76-1-105.5 and Falsifying Business Records in
the first degree in violation of Utah Criminal Code 76-8-511
