In Sept 2025, a note was mailed in FL
by the FDLE to all registrants saying that starting Oct 1st, 2025, registrants have to provide work information and work phone number. It’s very puzzling because work info request has been part of the regular registration for many years. -What is new ?

These restrictions are actually par for the course. Most FloriDUH comunities have similar ordinances. They are the same as most Broward County ordinances. There are similar municipal ordinances in Texas and Wisconsin.

The difference here is that Sheriff DeRoach made his intentions clear with his intent to chase Registered Persons out of the community and that he is the one that influenced the passage of this ordinance. Since it is clear this was the weaponization of the law out of malice, that should be helpful in attacking this ordinance.

In reply to Connie. Connie I was denied but I know several who have been removed. I guess it depends on the charges and the judge you go before. Same thing happened to me when I tried to get off probation and got denied. Went back a few years later and got removed from probation. Hopefully I can get another chance to be removed from the registry. It has been 28 years I have been on the registry which seems like a lifetime. I am not getting any younger for sure.

In reply to Crazy88. Cherokee, you don't have to answer, but I was wondering, if you ever tried to get off the registry? Or has anyone else?

In reply to Connie. Connie Same for me. My crime was in 1991 and no registry existed then. When I got out of prison in 1997, the registry came out 3 days before I was released and retro-actively applied. Having to register 4 times a year since 1997, I now have in my filing cabinet, 112 registration forms. If I ever get removed, my shredder is going to probably catch on fire from getting rid of them because each registration paperwork is 4 pages and front and back. That is 448 pieces of paper.

Who has the money to fight an ordinance? We just spent alot of money last year to get off the registry, and it was DENIED. My BF was told by the DA, you did it in 1991, you will do it again. He was persecuted. It was like he was on trial. He did a plea agreement in 1991. SO registry was never mentioned in his plea agreement. So, yea, I am having feelings of negativity.

In reply to Connie. Connie, you may be the first to conclude that we’re “basically screwed” here. What makes you say that?

In reply to tearfuleagle. No it is not just for a temporary injunction.
