Now that the Ex Post Facto lawsuit is filed, one of our first challenges we will face will likely be the government opposing our motion to proceed anonymously.
We will be preparing declarations in support of that motion and in connection are reaching out to our membership to identify those among us who have been assaulted, harassed, had property vandalized or were otherwise placed in danger because they were outed as a registrant.
Note that the declaration cannot be filed anonymously. You will not be “named” as part of the lawsuit, but the declaration will need to be in your own name.
If anyone can assist in this regard, please reach out to [email protected].
I am beyond sick and tired of these over-zealous public servants coming to my family’s home every 3 months to perform their so-called ‘address verification’ nonsense. This is lifetime probation. Lately, they’ve made a point of coming by late mornings during daylight, parking a little ways down the street, then smugly walking along the street dressed in full swat gear and casually walking up our driveway to our front door so as to make it obvious to all of our neighbors and passing cars in a disgusting display of public shaming. Never doubt…everything they do is intentional and with an ill-conceived motive. The USA truly has become a virtual prison and slave plantation, and Trump is not helping with his misguided public support of these Nazi thugs. What he should be doing is publicly addressing this horrific plague:
The Secret Epidemic of Police Domestic Violence
http://msmagazine.com/blog/2015/10/26/police-wife-the-secret-epidemic-of-police-domestic-violence/
Possibly shot at last week..I was returning home from getting my mom something to eat. I heard a pop that sounded like a rifle shot it is highly possible that a shot came in my drivers side and went out the passenger side. I did not report it because of continued vigilantes aggression I worry that if they come by my house they could shoot my 89 yr old mother!!!
Ironically, though not surprisingly, much of the targeted harassment, stalking and community mobbing my family and I have suffered because of my political status (RSO) has been at the hands of public servants (law enforcement and other government employees). Yes, ignorant people throw trash in our yard, screws in our driveway; someone tried to pry our garage door open late at night; people, including cops, will pull into our driveway late at night then take off when we turn lights on; people will blow their horns at me if they see me outside and yell obscenities; someone sped up and tried to run over one of my children while he was walking by the street close to our home but he dived out of the way just in time…we declined to file a police report for obvious reasons, which is sad that we have been deduced to not being able to trust cops for assistance; on occasion when my family was taking a walk together, a car of people slowed down along the road and slowly kept pace with us while yelling obscenities…I was afraid for my family’s safety and we quickly retreated to our car and went home; we’ve had cops follow us around and stalk us at the county fair, or follow me into the bathroom at a restaurant and just stand there watching me urinate then follow me out of the restroom, and make a point of telling the waitress or others about my political status; once, while driving, two groups of what appeared to be teenagers in two different cars boxed me in for several minutes, the car in front would speed up and slow down, while the one behind would suddenly speed up as if to ram me, and would not let me by when I tried to move over, all the while a couple of them with arms and partial bodies hanging out the window flipping me off and yelling obscenities…I was actually scared for my life and feared they would intentionally cause me to crash; and the list goes on…but…a good majority of the abuse has also come from police officers, and the list of their vile deeds is long, some of which I have already shared with FAC via private email. For multiple reasons, my family and I live in fear for our lives. We are very fearful to answer our front door because cops have made such a spectacle of my family and me in front of our neighbors including at all hours of the night. A cop will occasionally drive by our our home and, just before passing our home, turn his siren and lights on, then turn them off right after passing. I have suffered panic attacks, depression, insomnia and vomiting because of all this, with no health insurance to see a physician. I have not been gainfully employed since 2001, even after applying for the lowest of the low jobs and in industries that are known for even hiring convicted murderers. The original statute from January 1997 says ‘lewd/lascivious’ but when people run a background check it sometimes comes back as indecent ‘assault’ which gives the false impression that violence or force was involved in the decades-old relatively minor incident, which is absolutely not the case at all. Regardless, once a potential employer finds out I am on the RSO registry website, and in light of all the political fear mongering and grandstanding, I never even make it to the interview process or get a return phone call. The hellish nightmare that both the state and federal SORNA stupidity has subjected my family and me to is beyond insanity! To have swat teams of law enforcement AND ‘gang unit’ officers (what the h_ll??!) come by four or more times a year and abruptly swarm our yard at all hours, including after midnight, ringing our doorbell and banging on the door with their fists, ordering us to open the door, with lights and sirens blaring, dressed in swat gear, blaring their voices on a loud speaker for the entire neighborhood to hear…I can only say that I have, on occasion, contemplated taking my life as a result of the public shaming and mental abuse by these sorry, fascists S.O.B.’s. When people lose everything and have nothing left to lose, they lose it. I’m so weary. Enough is enough!

I have been approached and told from him, I know where you live. I have been denied renting at more than one apartments/ trailer parks. Stress is killing all of us. Life/ death sentence.. since 1989..
Steve – Contact [email protected] and help us by signing a declaration.
When I was living in Florida some dickless resident took it upon themselves to print out my FDLE flyer and mail it (with no return address naturally) to every resident in the complex.
Needless to say, this caused everyone to suddenly look at me with “hate” and to avoid getting in the elevator with me…suddenly those who said, good morning were silent and it became clear I was not welcome in the building after that.
In another complex I had my lease terminated although I had lived there 4 years as a model tenant. I asked why and was told they did not need to give me a reason!
I also had many applications rejected when trying to find housing due to “negative information” from background checks…etc…
Lovely people in Florida – I moved out of the state in 2005 and yet the state of Florida still have their claws in me as if I am a resident! I shall never set foot in the state again and I want to be removed from there useless registry (along with about half of everyone listed on it who no longer live or never lived in Florida!)
Lee
a little of it though sometimes is your imagination that ur being shunned….sometimes. People know this is a sham deep down. Those with any intelligence. Some offenders allow themselves to be pushed around, I was one of them….no more!
I also moved out in 2005 after the Lunsford case. When I started hearing “save a child, hang a pedophile” on the national news by someone who was found himself with child porn on his computer I had enough. Florida started an all out assault on any sex offender at that point, and then they had the other cases too seemingly all at once.
I had a crucifix put in my yard made of twigs with a rat hanging from it. I am in fear of my life
i have decided to hold my head up and spit back in their face. This is gonna stop. everyone should follow suit. I have had it.
Same as Camille, my son has been harassed in his high school to the point that his mother had to take him out of the traditional high school and have him completing the school online because he was continually bullied, humiliated, harassed, and everything else in between.
Both my car and house were egged a number of years back, but the more damaging stuff was the cyberstalking. I had several people who basically followed me around to any forum, etc where I was trying to do business. They got me kicked off of at least four of five of the and my name is basically mud on the ones where I am still technically a member. They also notified a trade group in Europe of my status and I was “disinvited” from a trade show that I had participated in for like 5 years. One of these people also posted a copy of my FDLE webpage in the bathrooms at the big trade show for my hobby/business in Atlanta back in 2013 and I haven’t been back since. This was after a person, allegedly a former customer who looked me up to make another purchase and saw the registry listing, made a post on the biggest internet forum in 2010 “outing” me and suggesting that people “come by my table and express their displeasure” at me being there. Any of this useful?
YES!!! please email us: [email protected]
NARSOL/NCRSOL just did this last month when seeking such info for the Bethea amicus SCOTUS submission. Upon reading their doc, sounds like it was successful. Maybe they could help get some of the info you seek?
Thanks
There is an unincorporated area in Palm Beach known as the Acreage. many offenders live here is a result of city ordinances throughout Palm Beach. There is a popular community forum on Facebook called Acreage Speaks. if you get on this page and simply search “offender” you will see that every time someone registers within this area, their FDLE flyer gets posted and a very large comments section gets rolling with all kind of ignorance and threats. if any of that can be useful there is a lot to choose from.
Barbara – can you send pdfs of the screenshots of some of those comments and send them to [email protected]?
I have no problem doing this; even giving out my name. How much detail, facts, how many incidents do you want?
How much detail/length?
Is harassment/threats by the police to be included?
How about the police lack of accountability to do anything about situations? (windows being shot out/kids throwing rocks and the police witnessing it and doing nothing?)
Harassing letters, comments, vandalism?
Where do I send it? How much time do I have to compose this?
send summary to [email protected]
More appropriately, I was threatened by officers in the Sheriff’s sex offender unit that they would follow me to find a way to violate me on one of Brevard’s stringent restrictions. Why? Because I explained parts of the state law they happened to be violating with me in regard to working as an over the road truck driver.
Thus is why we would need anonymity, fear of retribution by law enforcement.
my son was harrased and bullied by a student in middle school, because his father was on the registry, does that count.
We also had somebody call into my husband’s work at Texas Roadhouse and claim that his charges were a felony (they weren’t) and he was fired anyway.
And we had our van vandalized (but not sure that it was related) just seemed suspicious
I WAS FALSELY twice ARRESTED CAUSE I HAD SAME JOB!
same cop first time was a failure to change/update dr. lic. address when i actually had no perm address. 2nd time almost 1 year apart failure up update address both times state dismised charges! cost me time in jail, weeks being hauled around the country, lost weeks of working. being imprisoned, and 2 jobs!!!
Note – even if you have no permanent address, you remain required to register as transient, re-register monthly and get a drivers license or ID that reflects your address as transient. This is part of the registration statute.
FAC perhaps currently but not 10 years ago! if i was in the wrong there’s no way state would have dropped charges twice and cop was put on notice
