In reply to Bill T. Way to go Bill T. I think that some of these deputies and probation officers were abused children and have finally come up with a way to be the abuser.

In reply to Jm. JM, have you considered recording these interactions and filing a complaint? If no response at OPD level, contact OCSD and file it with them. Dont just roll over and take it. I had a deputy up here pull me over after running my tag. There was no traffic violation. He gave out to me the reason he stopped my was my tag was registered to an SO and he was "required by law" to verify the driver was within compliance. Grilled me for almost 30 minutes. Demanded I give him my phone and unlock it, etc. I simply demanded he bring in his supervisor. He told me he didn't have to and kept hassling me. I finally got tired of it and called the direct line to the SO and told the person on the phone what was happening, who the deputy was, and that i demanded a supervisor. The whole time the deputy was yelling at me to put down my phone and get out of my car. When i confirmed (loudly) that they said a supervisor was on the way, this deputy threw my license and insurance at me and left. Follow the law, but dont take any unnecessary crap from them.

I get how they define permanent and temporary residence but, I don’t know if anyone’s noticed, transient is defining residence as the county, and NOT as a place-of-stay, like the previous two, almost as if it applies only to those who are homeless or on the street. Moreover, how do you even report a county as ur residence as it doesn’t seem FDLE even accepts it, or even has a line available for doing so. Of course, this could be good cuz it would moot the line. Doesn’t this theoretically mean that if an SO had 182 residences he stayed at for max 2 days each in the year, he/she really has no residence at all, even under all 3 definitions? That was the huge legal quandary I found of them using the word county to actually define residence, but I want to see if FAC comes up with the same. The issue is a separated stay in a single county of non-permanence. I might be blind but I find no line requiring that the county too be a reported residence even when the individual stays don’t qualify. Please do concur or correct me. thanks

I’m VERY Confused, My Conviction was in 1997, In the State of Ill. Sentence was 3 Years Probation 10 Years Registration, My mistake was moving to Florida in 2002 before my 10 Year Registration was up. While Living in Florida, I received a letter from the State of Ill. stating that I no longer have to register, and that they were sending a copy of the letter to FDLE, I then called FDLE, they told me they don’t care what letter State of Ill sent to them, and that they will keep me of the list for life, I asked so even if I move back to Ill, where I am NOT required to register anymore you will keep me on the List, they said YES! So I am seriously considering moving back to Chicago ILL. How can they do this?

In reply to Muriel.

Muriel, you have informed his PO so now it’s up to her. If you know her to be a fair-minded person, you and hubby should have nothing to worry about. I’m off probation, but was very fortunate to have three out of four decent POs, the last one being a total @ssh0le.

Luckily I only had him for four months. During that time, he searched my house three times (including the night before I was due to be released from probation, with three other POs) tried to force me to take another polygraph (even though I had completed “therapy”) and threatened to put me on electronic monitoring just before Christmas because he “felt” that it was an oversight that I wasn’t on it when I was first put on probation. I had to read him the Floriduh statute which governed my conditions at the time of my sentencing.

Hope it works out well for you and him and he has a full, speedy recovery.

In reply to Muriel. This is a good example of the lack of thought that goes into these rules that 'unknowing' bureaucrats make. A trip to the hospital is not by any common sense chain of thought a change in residence. No one in his/her right mind would conceive such a requirement.

No longer hypothetical.
My husband is still on papers and was in the hospital on Sept 20th for cardiac care. Yesterday he again is in the hospital, same area, with C-diff, open area with curtain(s), no number and will not be released until at least tomorrow evening.
Spoke to P/O about requirement to register IN PERSON at Sheriff and DMV when she came to visit today.
She has no idea…she will check with her supervisor. With strict liability and only 6 hours away from being 48, now what??
