LOL, due to the recent comment by &quot;Vindicated&quot; (above), I came across this Parkhurst monster again. I celebrated the day it left this Earth. Today, I laugh about it.

Just remember, &quot;people&quot; like this monster that support the Registries are, nearly always, truly dumb, hateful, awful &quot;people&quot;. Decent, moral, responsible, freedom-loving Americans do not support Registries. Registry Supporters want governments to grow ever huger and to hold their hands all through their lives to &quot;help&quot; them.

Never forget that many enemies to you and all good people in America, live in America. They live next door to you. Real, mortal enemies that will harm your family. Never give a Registry Supporter any break.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Sorry to comment on an old thread, but I was looking up stuff on this ordinance, which my court ordered therapist said has been challenged. The municipal code site says this ordinance is still active as of Sept 2002. Have there been any updates or new challenges to this?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am not a &quot;registered sexual offender&quot;, but wrongfully  labeled one, by Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) who in July 2009, re-opened my  &quot;Closed: 1986- Sanford Florida Case (  NO. 86-2463-CFA) and &quot;retroactively&quot; imposed newly revised  &quot;sexual  predator/offender  Registration Restrictions, for life, that is now considered, punitive in nature and has caused considerable harm, without allowing for a new trial or open and transparent Hearing.
According to Florida Attorney General, Pam Bondi, who is now on Court Record, saying Florida can withhold the Constitutional rights of any individual, if it servers a legitimate purpose - had successfully convinced , Florida Attorney and now   Federal Judge, Roy Bale Dalton Jr., in her Legal Brief&#039;s to ignore all  Federal laws of , res judicata,  time-barred, ex post facto (retroactivity), double jeopardy, Rules of Stare Decisis...... and  of the U.S. Supreme Court and Congress to err on the side of political correctness, for the State of Florida.
Currently I am in the Florida Supreme Court (Case SC15-1576) as their is creditable evidence, the merits of my Case will show an orchestrated and   wrongful conviction by Seminole County Prosecutor, Robert B. Fisher, who became personally involved in my Case. The incredible true story is, he actually assisted my x-wife in orchestrating a wrongful convictions of me, by blocking the taking od depositions and defense evidence, while she sued me for a divorce, involving alimony, our Cadillac and ownership of  our new 5-bedroom home, on a one-acre home site, in Longwood , Fl.
After four years of  multiple re-trials by Seminole County, which ended in July 1990 as I was declared indigent and then goaded into accepting their ten-year Plea Contract, at retrial #5,  while under continuous threat of additional retrials. if I failed to accept.
I successfully completed  all court ordered sanctions , in July 2000.

As of July 2009,  the FDLE, again chose to breached the State of Florida&#039;s Completed  and Closed 1990-Contract ...and to reopen my Case and retroactively, impose additional punishment. for life, back 28-years,  before there were any known laws  requiring Registration and their reason; was to discredit my Wrongful Conviction Complaint, where it had been reported, Prosecutor Robert Fisher,  resigned his position, when he was seen having sex, in the State Attorney&#039;s Office, after hours.
I believe I can assist your current attorney of record, by sharing my &quot;Case Law(s)&quot; and my learned, &quot;28-years&quot; of being prosecuted, without any &quot;Constitutional Rights&quot; to protest, making me a &quot;political Probationer&quot; in Florida.

If additional Information is desired, please feel free to contact me at XXXXXXX or e-mail me and I can attach an abundance of creditable case documents, for your review.
Respectfully Submitted,
Earl Meggison]]></description>

Just wanted to point out that the link for the map doesn&#039;t quite work. To navigate to it, just click the link provided and use the tab at the top of the site &quot;Staying Safe.&quot;  Then choose &quot;Sex Offenders and Predators&quot; from the drop down menu. The link the the map is at the bottom of that page.

Valerie, I have not heard of an SO being arrested for going to Publix either, but the ordinance in Seminole County does give the police the ability to do so, since grocery shopping does not qualify as one of the permitted activities:

https://www.municode.com/library/fl/seminole_county/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=CH228SEOFSEPR_S228.2RECEACSEOFSEPR

Apparently the law enforcement interpretation of &#039;familial obligations&#039; does not allow for the purchasing of groceries for oneself. See paragraph 61.

http://floridaactioncommittee.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/FAC-v-Seminole-Complaint.pdf

Regardless if it is actually being enforced or not, it is on the books and has the potential to be enforced. I&#039;m hoping you can see the problem with that.]]></description>
