ENOUGH!!! Suspect said he killed Brevard County man ‘because he was a sex offender’. Had list of others to target.
This isn’t just another headline. This is a warning.
According to a newly released affidavit, a Brevard County, FL man is accused of killing another man—specifically because he was on the sex offender registry.
The victim, had been reported missing. What police later uncovered was something out of a nightmare: dismembered human remains stuffed into suitcases and dumped in a remote area. But the most disturbing part isn’t just the brutality, it’s the motive.
Investigators say the suspect allegedly identified the victim as a registered sex offender and decided to act.
This is where we need to stop pretending this registry is harmless or not punishment! That’s Bullshit! This is exactly what happens when you take a massive, public, one-size-fits-all registry and turn human beings into permanent targets. This is not “informing the public.” This is creating a hit list. A list with our names, pictures, addresses where our own wives and children live, that angry, unstable, self-righteous vigilantes can use as a roadmap. How many more have to be killed before you realize this?
If you are reading this, sitting around quietly and hoping you’re not next isn’t a strategy.
Start speaking out loudly about the real dangers of public registries. Push for elimination of this useless system that paint targets on people’s backs. Demand that policymakers acknowledge the unintended consequences of what they’ve built, and refuse to be treated as disposable! Because if this can happen to one person on the registry, it can happen to you!
Our work isn’t about defending crime. This is about defending human beings who have already served their sentences and their families from becoming acceptable collateral damage.
WAKE UP PEOPLE AND DO SOMETHING!!! I expect to see our comments FULL of reports that people have contacted their legislators and local news outlets.

I am not saying that this is not the reason he murdered the man, but sometimes when people are caught and convicted of murdering someone they tell everyone in prison they killed the person because he raped their daughter, relative, friend, etc. to try and cover up what they did and falsely justify their actions so as not be looked down upon in prison and cover-up the real reason why they murdered their victim.
Maybe someone from legal can help me with this but i know this is not the first case where an R.S.O. was killed and specifically targeted because all of his info was out in public for all to see.
Why can this not be used to at the least stop anyone but the police being able to see the info or even better abolish the registry all together?
How many dead R.S.O. ‘S does there have to be with the victim saying proudly he killed him because he was an R.S.O. before something is done?
No Hope,
I’m working on it. Don’t give up, have faith.
I would like to know this information as well. Has it been gathered anywhere?
ML John Doe what are you working on? I have had faith in FAC since 2018. People are getting killed being on this public registry and it looks like no one can help. Just sitting ducks
I want to thank all of those who sent me the full article and helped me understand this was a targeted event. When I looked up the murdered victims offense of course it was the usual vague description that does not fully tell his story, but makes him out to be a monster. Not trying to belittle or make excuses for his offense, or his victim. But the public does not know the whole story about his offense. My anger is toward the guy who murdered him, that he had a list and those that are making horrid comments supporting the actions. My heart goes out to his family because no amount of Wild West justice justifies his murder.
Looking up Colie Daniel and his offense and age, I can guarantee he most likely had a relationship with an underage girl. His charge is the same as mine. I was 20 years old when I caught my case, almost 20 years ago
The Breakdown
Written By Quiet too long 04/03/2026
When you break the national cost down, the scale becomes impossible to ignore. A $45‑billion‑a‑year system works out to about $276 per taxpayer, or roughly $344 per household. That’s the real price families pay every year for policies that have never demonstrated a measurable public‑safety benefit. It’s a small number on a tax bill, but a massive number in wasted national spending — money that could strengthen schools, treatment programs, housing, or victim services instead of disappearing into a system that produces no return. When the cost is this high and the benefit this low, the imbalance speaks for itself.
What is the source of the $45 billion figure?
The $45‑billion annual figure is a conservative national estimate built by averaging the full range of costs across all 50 states — everything from SORNA distributions and federal grant payments to the day‑to‑day expenses that keep the registry machinery running. That includes police and sheriff vehicles, fuel, oil, computer systems, software maintenance, administrative staffing, detective and marshal time, compliance checks, investigations, and the mechanical and electronic upkeep required to operate a system of this size. When you spread that estimated $45 billion across the country, it works out to about $276 per taxpayer and roughly $344 per household every year. Those numbers make the scale visible: families are paying hundreds of dollars annually to sustain a regime whose costs are documented, but whose benefits have never been demonstrated. Hope this helps.
What is the source of the cost figures?
Jacob: The figures come from the only sources that actually publish anything: federal SORNA allocations, SMART Grant funding, and the documented startup and maintenance costs reported by individual states. Beyond those limited disclosures, no state or federal agency provides a full accounting of the manpower, vehicles, fuel, software upkeep, administrative staffing, or investigation time required to maintain a registry system that now includes nearly one million people across all fifty states. Because the government does not publish the real numbers, the only responsible way to estimate the national cost is to start with the total registry population, isolate the portion who are no longer on parole or probation, and apply a mathematical model based on known expenses such as state‑reported software costs, federal grant totals, average law‑enforcement salaries, vehicle operating costs, and the documented workload of check‑ins, address verifications, and compliance investigations. When those known costs are scaled across all fifty states and applied to a population of this size, the projected national burden reaches an estimated forty‑five billion dollars. This figure is a rock‑bottom estimate because it is built only from the limited numbers the government actually publishes—SORNA allocations, SMART Grant funding, documented state startup and maintenance costs, the total registry population across all fifty states, and a mathematical model to fill in the gaps. Since no agency releases the real counts of officer hours, vehicle use, fuel consumption, software upkeep, administrative staffing, or investigation time, especially for people who are no longer on parole or probation, the true national cost is almost certainly higher.
Dude I probably send out a dozen or so emails each week to legislators and I either get a bot reply saying “we received your email….” blah blah b.s or I get a response saying this person can’t receive emails. They set up their emails like that on purpose.
Keep sending them!
NOTHING WILL CHANGE IN FLORIDA. The legislators don’t care; the governor doesn’t care. The Sherriff’s office doesn’t care. The county commissioners don’t care. I had to sue for my rights. I had to fight an illegal arrest. I had to deal with ignorant neighbors.
………until I left. I left Florida and will never step foot in that state again. People, find a way out. Get out of Florida. I now live as a free man should. No residence restrictions, no geographic restrictions, no notice to neighbors.
GET OUT OF FLORIDA
Unfortunately leaving Florida doesn’t remove you from their registry, if it did, I would be long gone.
anonymous — EXACTLY! It’s why I have to fight them.
Me too. I got out of Florida because it is useless to fight the current climate of hate and politicized state of the registry.
Florida will never change as just proved by the dismissed case that members spent tens of thousands of dollars on to fight the registry. Money completely wasted because no judge will be the first to stand against the registry and put their lives in danger. More money will be spent on endless appeals to no result other than dismissals and endless delays by the judicial system.
FAC will respond with “well that is a terrible attitude. We have to try to do something, etc…” But it is like a mouse fighting a tiger. Useless, wasteful and unproductive. Better to leave the tiger alone and leave his territory.
Vincent. I want out and will leave Florida when I’m not longer a caregiver to elderly relatives. But where can I go? What state is better? What state are you in? TiA
Hey Vincent. The unfortunate reality is that many don’t have that option. They are tied to Florida because of probation (some have 15 years or even lifetime), a long-standing business, they are caregivers to family members that can’t move, they have children established in schools, family is local, they are dependent on the financial support of people here, or they have other obligations that don’t make it so easy to pick up and go or leave loved ones behind. I agree with you. If anyone is free to leave, is not dependent on someone here (or someone here is not dependent on them), can live without seeing family and friends as often, and has the resources to leave, they should absolutely, 100%, without a second thought, get out of Florida. We get calls all the time from people considering moving or visiting and our first question is “why would you ever?”.
May I ask where you are? California, Washington, Oregon? Thanks!
