IN THE

3RD DISTRICT COURT - SALT LAKE

COUNTY OF SALT LAKE, STATE OF UTAH

State of Utah

vs.
Affidavit of Probable Cause
JESUS JOSHUA PAYAN-MENDOZA
Date of Birth: 06/19/1999
Arrestee

On 01/13/2019 16:30 the defendant was arrested for the offense(s) of:

Offense Date Offense Description Statute Gov Code Severity DV

1 01/13/2019 AGGRAVATED MURDER 76-5-202 UT F1 No

2 01/13/2019 AGGRAVATED MURDER 76-5-202 UT F1 No

3 01/13/2019 FELONY DISCHARGE OF A FIREARM 76-10-508.1 UT F3 No

4 01/13/2019 FELONY DISCHARGE OF A FIREARM 76-10-508.1 UT F3 No

I believe there is probable cause to charge the defendant with these charges because:
ON 1/13/19 AT 1326 INSIDE OF FASHION PLACE MALL LOCATED AT 6191 S. STATE ST JESUS JOSHUA PAYAN-
MENDOZA, WHO IS A KNOWN AND IDENTIFIED GANG MEMBER BY THE MONIKER OF "PSYCHO", WAS ENGAGED IN
GANG ACTIVITY WHEN HE AND OTHER KNOWN MEMBERS OF THE "FLORENCIA 13" GANG INTENTIONALLY
ATTEMPTED TO CAUSE THE DEATH OF 2 PERSONS BY FIRING A HANDGUN STRIKING BOTH PERSONS.

I believe these to be additional condition(s) for continued detention:

The person would constitute a substantial danger to any other person or to the community, or is likely to flee the
jurisdiction of the court
JESUS JOSHUA PAYAN-MENDOZA IS A KNOWN AND IDENTIFIED GANG MEMBER OF THE "FLORENCIA 13" GANG.
POST MIRANDA JESUS ADMITTED TO BEING AFFILIATED WITH THE GANG AND CRIMINAL ACTIVITY THAT
RESULTED IN THE ATTEMPTED HOMICIDE OF 2 VICTIMS
