Law enforcement should receive double the sentence since they are supposed to be the people the public trusts to protect the public and uphold the law and not badge-bearing criminals arresting criminals.

In reply to Douglas In Jacksonville. Shortly after my arrest, a BSO ICAC Deputy was found masturbating to his government issued workplace laptop full of CP that was used in uploading and downloading CP to "capture pedos". During his suspension and investigation, he committed suicide with his service weapon.

I know of a police officer here in Duval County that avoided being placed on the sex offender registry by committing suicide during an investigation of his alleged crimes of having child pornography on his computer. I always thought it was quite telling that a law enforcement officer would choose death rather than going through the process of Investigation, arrest, incarceration and finally lifelong placement on the sex offender registry. Maybe the punishment’s a little too harsh if it drives people to suicide? There was also another local case in the last couple of years where a local Republican donor and close ally the local sheriff’s department also committed suicide after being placed under investigation for an alleged sex crime. I see both of these suicides as being under the shadow of the sex offender registry and it’s unintended and ever expanding consequences. Both of these occurrences can easily be found by doing a Google News search of the Jacksonville Florida area.

After reading these comments again and also this article one would have to say many are stupid even myself. While many can say police gets off with a sort of sweetheart deal. Those in law enforcement can be just as bad. What about the police misconduct in inducing these internet sex sting operations that sway one into a corner of a sexual way.While I was induced or challenged to talk dirty if I came down to meet seems the ends don’t justify the means.

Although its water over the bridge now. I’m sure many where induced to a type of plea deal to avoid police misconduct as in a force in many of these actions. And they say the action was traveling down to meet, use of a computer, etc and than add more issues according to the chat log.

Law enforce hold a code of honor but behind the scenes its a lot different. I’m sure Cherokee and Vito can tell you I’m sure about police misconduct. Sounds like this registry is more of a human rights issue to me in this bait and catch ordeal.

In reply to RM. Why? Because the word is getting out. The registry is extended punishment you can’t recover from. It’s a prison with no walls.

Im glad he’s not gonna be on it. Because it does zero to increase public safety or help him become a normal law abiding citizen again. Its sad that he had a real victim and and got off so lightly and many who didn’t were sentenced to much harsher penalties. The hypocrite Grady Judd would be holding a press conference for many who were set up on stings with no real victims.

Let me say this first, I am NOT taking up for corrupt cops in any regard. But they aren’t the only ones who get sweetheart deals from prosecutors and judges nowadays in exchange for guilty pleas. A lot of people are avoiding the “hit list” and getting their sexual abuse charges reduced to child abuse, thereby avoiding registry requirements. This is happening more and more unfortunately. It begs the question: if the registry is not punishment, then why are prosecutors asking judges to approve these sweetheart deals?

Where is Ron Book or his daughter on this? Why are they not speaking out?

Why is Grady not lambasting this gent? Is it because it would be hypocritical of him to do so of a fellow (now former) LEO who Grady knows there are more of in local LE offices, including his, which would be an embarrassment to him?

Why is the press not taking him to task on this? Is the FAC membership going to take Grady to task on this? Is it not good enough for the blue too? Where is the Gov on this and his allegedly hard hitting stance on this matter and using this gent as an example? Should this not be used as a foundation to call for defunding the blue as other instances are called to be used as such for the same action?

So many questions that need answers of this situation in this location to bring the matter to the forefront for addressing. Again, another person in a position of trust abusing it with willing minors (who knew what they were doing but cannot be thought of as being smart enough). Perfect situation to highlight to those from the Tallahassee Mansion to the local LE office and others in between to show the hypocrisy of it all.

The Middle District of FLA US Dist Atty (Mr. Handberg) should be asked why he is not charging this same gent with manufacturing such material and distributing it while also charging his fellow officers with receiving/possession of it. There should be uproar over this in the lack of accountability overall by all who use this topic and people to step on in their upward climb of power.

Nah, the Gov needs the LE endorsement next time he runs for political office regardless of this matter. Don’t have rule of law on matter such as this if you are not going to apply them evenly.

Why are the other LEOs not being charged with possession if they received the videos he manufactured? They have them so charge them. Makes me think this area condones this behavior in their LE offices. Mayor needs to be asking for the chief’s resignation over this.
