The US will have many constitutional suits because of this Covid-19 virus.

The federal government severely failed to act in time.
States limiting travel into other states and into/out of the US.
States putting registrants in danger to register and to succumb to visits.
1st amendments rights to religion, guns, etc
many others too.

Guy in my neighborhood 9 arrests!! Just stabbed his fiancé in broad daylight on the street. Why wasn’t he ever jailed for a registration violation? Because his 9 prior crimes never involved a type of sex??

In reply to JZ. It doesn’t prevent bail, except on appeal of a sex conviction against a minor.

In reply to Bob.

I Agree wholeheartedly considering that registration requirements in 1998 were no where near as punitive as today.

In 1998 at the time of plea I was required to report any change of address within 24 hours at any DMV and answer a mailed verification of address sent by FDLE. Must importantly I was eligible to petition for removal from the “list” after 10 years being released if no new felonies or misdemeanors.

All that change in 2005 when the State violated its plea deal.

No doubt about it Mr Pollock lost his life must likely because of the unlawful change of his original registration requirements as agreed at sentencing…Like me

I did the crime, I served the time honorably, not violating any of the terms of supervision. Once released I continued to comply with the ever increasing conditions imposed upon my liberty. Regardless how unfair and unjust they a

On the other hand the State has been nothing but dishonorable to its contractual agreements , having imposed increasingly and nearly impossible Ex Post Facto laws.

With the passage of HB 333, more registrants will die in custody for petty violations since there is now no chance of bail for anyone EVER convicted of a “sex offense” if the victim was a minor and the accused an adult. This of course includes all entrapments with adults posing as minors and CP cases. Floriduh continues to be an outlier in continual harsher treatment of registrants.

I am very sad for Mr. Pollock and his family. This is a reminder to all of us to stay vigilant and follow all the requirements they put on us, at least until the Courts step in and give all registered citizens the freedom we deserve from restrictions and the threat of incarceration.

The nazis tried the ” just following orders ” line at Nuremberg, it didnt fly then so what makes these idiots think it should now ? Or should we have let monsters like Martin Bormman ,herman goring and Rudolf Hess go ? Saying they were good people, just because they said they were ” just following orders ” if a commander issues an unlawful order there are 3 things that you can do disobey it, and have to answer why later or immediately bring it to the attention of someone who is either above the one who issued the order or who is outside of the chain of command who can focus the right attention on the unlawfullness of the order.last you can obey the order and hope you dont end up on trial and hanged at Nuremberg. Because this hole sh@ t show of there’s is exactly like that , its crimes against humanity .
