2010 phone records showed that the last cell tower for John Navarro's cellphone 773-531-
4503 on 08/30/2010 was at Riverside Place and Dixie Highway in Wilton Manors at 8:11 p.m.
This cell tower location is around 1.3 miles south of the victim's residence.

In
reviewing the recorded statement of John Navarro taken on 10/26/2010, Navarro stated
that he first met the victim REDACTED on line around July 2010 and arranged to meet him

at the victim's house to do a paid


massage. John Navarro stated that the victim lived in a "nice
house" in Oakland Park and had a red vehicle and a small dog. John Navarro stated that the victim
REDACTED told him that his partner was out o f town. Navarro staled that he took a picture
of the victim's vehicle and sent it to his roommate Aaron Dobbins. John Navarro stated that the
victim REDACTED could not get erect and so they did not have sexual relations. Navarro
stated that he went back to the victim's house a second time that same day by himself and that he
and Dobbins got into an argument afterwards. John Navarro stated that he then met the victim
REDACTED a third time with his
partner Aaron Dobbins at their house in Oakland Park
where both he the victim, Dobbins, and an unknown black male had sex with the understanding
that the victim, REDACTED , would hire Dobbins at a later date. John Navarro stated that he
never saw the victim again after that third encounter. Though John Navarro described his

relationship with the victim REDACTED being as over two months before the victim's
murder, he was never questioned as to
why he was calling the victim on 08/30/2010.

John Navarro gave no reasonable explanation as to why Aaron Dobbins DNA would be
under the victim's fingernails.

John Navarro stated that he had been dating Aaron Dobbins for five years and that Dobbins
was
very jealous.

Case # OPI 0-08-3375

While waiting for Pasco County Sheriff's Office Crime Scene to arrive on the scene to take
Dobbin's bare footprints this detectiYe obtained Aaron Dobbins' DNA swabs.
After obtaining background information on Aaron Dobbins he was read his Miranda

Rights. As soon as this detective told him that I was from Broward County, Dobbins interjected
i,
'John Navarro my ex".

Aaron Dobbins stated that he first met John Navarro on a


gay dating site called "Big
Muscle" and fell in love with him because it was a
"special thing".
Aaron Dobbins stated that he and John Navarro began to live together but began to have
problems in their relationship. Aaron Dobbins stated the problems began because he was "just
coming out of the closet" while John Navarro had been out in the gay culture for years. Aaron
Dobbins stated that John Navarro was involved in group sex, bondage, borderline torture, fisting,
skat, etc. and he was not ready for any of those activities.

Aaron Dobbins stated that he last saw John Navarro since 2014 but still texted him on the
phone. Aaron Dobbins stated that John Navarro never spoke to him about being questioned by
Detective Rivera in 2010.

Aaron Dobbins was shown photographs ofthe victim REDACTED , the victim's truck,
and the victim's house (exterior and interior)and stated that the victim looked "vaguelyfamiliar".
Aaron Dobbins denied he had "*#nitely not been to the house".

When asked i f may have participated in any group activates with John Navarro and other
sexual partners Aaron Dobbins stated "no he wouldn't" that he "wanted to" but John Navarro
didn't want him to. Aaron Dobbins was asked if he and John Navarro ever had sex as a
group at
which again he stated no. Aaron Dobbins then changed his version of having sex with the victim
REDACTED "airing on

the side of caution and said maybe we had relations with him at
his apartment. Aaron Dobbins denied ever having a Aun because he had past "anger issues't
"
Aaron
Dobbins stated that he was only involved iwone indident where bondage was involved and it was
a video not involving the victim.
When Aaron Dobbins was confronted with his DNA being
REDACTEDunder REDACTED

fingemails, Aaron Dobbins stated that he was beat up in 2010 and went to the hospital and maybe
that was why his DNA was under the victim's fingernails (implying that REDACTED had
beaten him up).

Aaron Dobbins denied that John Navarro had ever sent him a
picture of REDACTED

REDACTED vehicle as John Navarro had stated to Detective Rivera in 2010.

GENERAL AFFIDAVIT & APPL]CATION FOR ARREST WARRANT


Broward Sheriff's Office
Case # OP10-08-3375

In 2010 Detective Rivera did not obtain barefoot prints from John Julio Navarro.

John Julio Navarro's bare footprints were needed to compare to the evidence collected
off the 2010 murder scene and therefore this detective authored a Search Warrant to obtain the
bare foot prints.
The Search Warrant was reviewed by ASA Rivera and then signed by the Honorable Judge

Ari Forth on 06/01/2022.

On 06/03/2022 John Navarro was located at his house at 1408 NW 5 Avenue in Fort

Lauderdale by VIPER Detective Erick Zamora. (BSO Case Number 90-2206-001091) Navarro
was detained for the execution of the Search Warrant. After Crime Scene Detective Paul Porter

obtained a set of John Navarro's barefoot prints he was read his Miranda rights and reinterviewed
about the listed case.

John Navarro stated that he rememberedthe 2010 interviewwith Detective Rivera and was

shown pictures of the victim REDACTED REDACTED and the victim's house and vehicle by this

detective. John Navarro stated that his memory ofthe events was not as clear as it was in 2010 but

that he told Detective Rivera the truth in 2010 and about events involving the victim.

Several topics that were discussed with John Navarro were inconsistentwith facts provided

to this detective earlier by Aaron Dobbins. John Navarro advised that he had gotten a recent phone

call from Aaron Dobbins, (after this detective had interviewed Aaron Dobbins) but before that he

had only received one text from Dobbins in six years. This conflicted with Aaron Dobbins

statement that he routinely texted and stayed in contact with John Navarro.

John Navarro stated that Aaron Dobbins was extremely jealous and that he and Dobbins

did not participate in group sex with other people due to Dobbins' jealousness. John Navarro also
stated that Aaron Dobbins would go on drug benders for days and during those times he would

seek out sexual encounters with other men. John Navarro denied he was involved in "bondage,
torture sex", or other deviant acts as Dobbins stated that he was and denied he had anything
unusual sexual with the victim in 2010. John Navarro stated that Aaron Dobbins was not involved

in any type of bondage during sex and that Aaron Dobbins stole many items and cash from him in

their relationship.

Case # OP 10-08-3375

John Navarro stated that his contact with the victim REDACTED REDACTED was only a few days
or maybe a week in total.

John Navarro stated in the recent phone call from Aaron Dobbins that Dobbins seemed to

question whether or not he could have been involved in the listed murder and not remember it but

that Dobbins never denied being involved in the murder. Aaron Dobbins told John Navarro that

the victim REDACTED had his head blown off and was restrained when killed, It should be

noted that when this detective spoke to Aaron Dobbins this detective mentioned that REDACTED

REDACTED had been shot and executed but did not mention where on the body REDACTED was

shot.

When this detective told John Navarro that Aaron Dobbins' DNA had been found under

the victim's fingernails John Navarro began to cry and had obviously not been advised of that fact

when he spoke to Dobbins. John Navarro seemed convinced based on the DNA that Aaron Dobbins

was involved in the victim's murder.

John Navarro stated that after contacting this detective several times and leaving phone
messages Aaron Dobbins changed his cellphone number.

On 06/03/2022 this detective was informed by Fingerprint Examiner Jason Jardine that the
bare footprints taken in Pasco County of Aaron Dobbins were inconclusive to be compared to the
latent lifts from the crime scene lifts and better bare footprints of Aaron Dobbins were needed.

Since the testing of DNA has improved since 2010 this detective had Serologist Aida Ortiz
Nevarez retest the DNA taken from the crime scene in 2010. From this new testing Aaron Dobbins

DNA was matched to the DNA collected from both fingernails of the victims and Aaron Dobbins

DNA was matched to the DNA taken from the ligature used to restrain the victim.

that he told Detective Rivera the truth in 2010 and about events involving the victim.

to this detective earlier by Aaron Dobbins. John Navarro advised that he had gotten a recent phone
call from Aaron Dobbins, (after this detective had interviewed Aaron Dobbins) but before that he

or
maybe a week in total.

John Navarro stated in the recent phone call from Aaron Dobbins that Dobbins seemed to

question whether or not he could have been involved in the listed murder and not remember it but
that Dobbins never denied being involved in the murder. Aamn Dobbins told John Navarro thai

the victim REDACTED REDACTED had his head blown off and was restrained when killed. It should be
noted that when this detective spoke to Aaron Dobbins this detective mentioned that REDACTED

REDACTED had been shot and executed but did not mention where on the body REDACTED was
shot

When this detective told John Navarro that Aaron Dobbins' DNA had been found under

the victim's fingernails John Navarro began to cry and had obviouslynot been advisedofthat fact
when he spoke to Dobbins. John Navarroseemed convincedbased on the DNA that Aaron Dobbins

was involved in the victim's murder.

John Navarro stated that after contacting this detective several times and leaving phone
messages Aaron Dobbins changed his cellphonenumber.

On 06/03/2022 this detective was informed by FingerprintExaminer Jason Jardine that the
bare footprints laken in Pasco County o f Aaron Dobbins were inconclusive to be compared lo the
latent lifts from the crime scene lifts and better bare footprints of Aaron Dobbins were needed.

Since the testing ofDNA has improved since 2010 this detective had Serologist Aida Ortiz
Nevarez retest the DNA taken from the crime scene in 2010. From this new testing Aaron Dobbins

DNA was matched to the DNA collected from both fingernails of the victims and Aaron Dobbins

DNA was matched to the DNA taken from the ligature used to restrain the victim.
