Is Profit Driving Florida’s Sex Offense Registry?

I was arrested by my local police agency and spent 24 days incarcerated, including the six days it took to transport me from Ohio to Florida so I could bond out and mount my defense. But Florida delayed my release in order to force me to register on the public sex offense registry.

I have never lived in the state of Florida, nor have I ever desired to reside in that state. I briefly traveled to Florida in the past to engage in a peaceful demonstration against the primary proponent of residency restriction laws that harm returning citizens and drive up homeless rates in South Florida.

I had also traveled briefly to the state to hand out Christmas care packages to those made homeless by the Miami municipal residency restriction ordinance named after the same proponent I had protested the year before. Given a choice, I would not have spent even a single day in Florida.

But now, due to this false accusation that was recently dropped (through a nolle prosequi), I am currently listed on the state’s public sex offense registry for life.

I decided to look a little deeper.

    This is one of the most horrific story’s of all its kind!! It goes to show the lengths that public figures will go to catch a innocent person all fueled by hate and money. The Books are famous for this shit more than they want public to know. The real truth is they didn’t like the fact that Mr. Louge has a big heart and he helped the homeless and people who cannot live in suitable housing because of their ridiculous laws and ordinances. Florida is the worst state I have ever seen in my life!! PRR is also there and it is ridiculous as well. Innocent men and women who will be very get out because Florida is a Sundown State!! No sunshine if you commit more than one crime especially if your a convicted Sex Offender they will chase you with power and money across multiple states. What was once known as a Sunshine State is now Known as Sundown Black Out State!! Shame on Florida and it’s lawmakers, what you done was wrong!! What your doing is still wrong!!
