So then, GA isn’t lifetime? 
Hey FAC, we need a comprehensive list of all the states people can move to once they are OFF the registry in their original state of residence. We should not have to remain in our 10 yr registry state once we’re off if we find better cost of living and better job opportunities in another state.

CT is 10 yrs. But it’s a fairly boring state to live in. So if I wanted to move to a state with a decent weather climate (not 30 ft of snow e every winter) and cheaper rent prices, where could I go that will honor my completion of registration from CT?

I’m sure many of us would like to know. I swear I saw GA as lifetime when I googled it but based on this member’s comment… now I’m confused.]]></description>

My defense would be Florida’s commitment to fraud is where I learned how, so if they can do it why can’t I. I’m no Rick Scott I’m just a rookie.

Not worth the risk, but I’d love to see Florida get audited and have to pay dearly.]]></description>

&#039;so truth&#039; and capt bob  m. jr....

there has to be some official audit on the real number of those persons forced to register that reside in florida....

taking an official audit, then, could, be used as means to reduce the amount of monies that the state of florida is currently receiving

so, currently, in theory, the state is receiving monies based on 65k plus or more....in reality, probably, 30k

so,in theory, ....that would potentially mean a 50% reduction in federal funds appropriated to the state!

65k-ish.  versus.....30k]]></description>

Your story sounds very familiar to me.

With my story I&#039;ll start way back in 2005 when I was placed on 4 yrs probation and adjudication withheld from a plea of guilty bargain. To make to story a little shorter I asked my lawyer to have the terms of my probation modified. I asked him that if there was any way possible that I could be around children in my family and/or in the event that I eventually get married. The judge granted my request for my probation to be modified so that I could be around children that are in my family by blood or marriage.

A few years later I started dating someone who didn&#039;t care about my past. Once we both decided to take things to another level, things got a little complicated with spending time with each other due to my probation requirements not allowing me to be around children unless they was family through blood or marriage. They can most likely tell if you&#039;ve been around children through the semi-annual polygraph tests, part of probation requirements. Usually we would take advantage of spending time together when her kids was at her ex husband&#039;s every other weekend.

Longer story short, eventually we decided to tie the knot. Therefore and with only 1 yr probation left. I was allowed to be finally introduced and be around her children. Shortly after we got married her ex husband found out about my sex offense and actually had a judge grant him emergency  custodial rights and kids was placed in his care. My wife, now ex wife was now allowed to have the kids with her only every other weekend. The Civil judge also ordered that I can not be there while the kids are present or that he would take all custodial rights from her. Also, during this whole ordeal the judge told me that I should be barried underneath the jail. I was blown away by his comments and such a biased judge. Especially since I was already deemed to be no threat to children in my family by a criminal judge and provided proof with the letter of probation modification during the custody hearing. I thought judges are suppose to be fair and impartial?

Needless to say I no longer care to date anyone now. I mean deep down, of course I&#039;d like a companion and one day a life partner. However, after that whole ordeal. I don&#039;t have the desire to have a relationship/marriage ruined by some corrupt civil judge or narrow minded/disgruntled ex. Most single women around my age  have children. Even though that I&#039;ve completed probation and been deemed no threat to society/children after completing the &quot;sex offender&quot; therapy required by sex offender probation. I still fear taking a risk of getting involved with someone who has children. Due to fear of a disgruntled ex husband coming along and repeating the same pain I experienced all over again. Yet the Florida registry is not punitive, correct? 
I mean it&#039;s already hard enough to find and date a woman who is willing to look past your past mistakes and eventually feel safe enough for you to be around her children. Just to have an entity outside the relationship come in and tear the relationship apart.]]></description>
