Jacksonville police: 2 men arrested for sexual offender violations on Halloween
FAC NOTE: If anyone has contact with these two registrants, please have them contact our legal committee so we can offer our organization’s support.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said two men were arrested Thursday for sexual offender violations
James Agee had exterior decorations displayed and provided candy. JSO also said Agee was dressed in costume and did not have a sign stating “No Candy or Treats Here.” FAC NOTE: He has a young daughter who he wanted to enjoy the holiday.
John Nelson had his porch light on and no sign stating “No Candy or Treats Here.”

Duval-Jacksonville has one of, if not the highest rate of violent crime (not “sex” crime) in Floriduh and also the 66th (out of 67) highest rate of unsolved crime, especially murder.

You can now see why the resources are being spent on creating “sex offenders.” These are the only “cases” they can solve because they created them! Without having registered citizens as low-hanging fruit, their dismal crime-solving rate would be at down to 5% instead of 17%.
Also, a “teacher” in Texas who beat down a special needs student is allowed to get out of jail on bond, yet a registry technical violation disqualifies you for bond in Floriduh. WTF???
This ¢unt should be charged with a hate crime! Special needs people are a protected class! Especially minors!

One thing that I don’t understand about the Halloween ordinance is posting a sign on the door and keeping the lights off. How can someone read a sign in the dark? Should they pass an ordinance requiring that the sign be a neon sign, or requiring trick or treaters to wear night vision goggles? May sound stupid but that’s what they are best at. Lol

Maybe it is a trap?
If you don’t post the sign, you get arrested
If you post the sign but it is not visible or readable, you get arrested
If you keep the lights on so they can see the sign, you get arrested.
Might as well just turn yourself in and get it over with.
Quoting a phrase from a soap opera that I do not watch but love the phrase:
“like sands through an hourglass, these are the days of our lives”.
This is INSANE! From:

“Halloween is a religious holiday belonging to the Roman Catholic Church. Yes, that seems strange, what with the modern renditions of dancing skeletons and black cats and witches riding broomsticks. The holiday is “All Hallows Day” (or “All Saints Day) and falls on Nov. 1.”
If the date has religious significance for you, regardless of how you celebrate it, it is your right to celebrate it, either alone or with your family and whomever you choose to associate with.
Freedom of Religion. Freedom of Association.
The word Halloween comes from “All Hallows eve”. Somehow Hallows eve became Halloween.
Sorry for a double post My question is Duval County is the largest county in the state yet FAC has no attorneys for this area I know most of them are scared to try and defend you but there has got to be at less one out there that has some BALLS to go up against these Assholes that run the court and county system here in JAX so far I have found none. Please lets get some lawyers here that will fight for our cause in this corrupt county just my opinion
My husband and I live in northern Clay County. We use Gilbert Shaffnit out of Gainesville. He is good but $500/hour.
Gilbert, too, has my vote. He has an understanding of the problems and knows how to get to the crux of the matter. With support of my friends, family, and the ‘victim’, he managed to get me released from probation eleven years early. He is not only active in FAC but also in NARSOL. He gets to see all sides of the matters concerning RC’s and takes a personal interest in resolving injustices inflicted by a system infected by paranoia, false information, and politicians preying on uninformed voters. Sarah F’s enthusiasm is inspiring.
Largest county in the state in what sense ? By geographical region size ?? Miami Dade and Broward are larger by geographical region size. Jacksonville is the most populous ” municipality ” in Florida, but Miami Dade county alone, as well as the area which consists of Dade, Broward and the Palm Beaches (Miami Metro area ) is by far larger in population and geographical region size.
I understand your post and your frustration, but just needed to point that out since it was your intro.
P.S. Also give FAC some credit here please. They are doing everything they can in one of the most hostile political environments in regards to sex offender policies. If it is not FAC, we have nobody else to fight for us here.
When Jacksonville consolidated years ago, Jacksonville became the entire county (Duval) with the exceptions of the beach communities and Baldwin. That makes Jacksonville the largest CITY (but not county) in LAND MASS in the contiguous 48 states. That has been touted for years.
That is interesting information regarding the land mass and Jacksonville’s consolidation.
City, county, metro area, —- South Florida and Jacksonville can go head to head in many categories. Do you really want to debate this ? It is pointless on this site.
I wasn’t sure what the original poster was referring to as to ” large ” since it can refer to many things. I don’t want to get into a debate as to which region is more important and needs more help due to its size, mass or population. What is important is that all of Florida big or small is in need of help. I concluded my post with giving FAC the credit it deserves because they have been working hard for over a decade and in my opinion, has been impressive thus far.
Casey Steele of Steele Trial Law. He got me off probation early. Great guy. Knows the BS we have to deal with and agrees that it’s all crap. Hes off Park St in Riverside. Very reasonable. Will work with you financially. Just Google Steele Trial Law and all his info comes up.
MJ – if you have him contact legal@… we’ll vet him and possibly add him to our directory
Ok I’ll let him know. But What do you mean vet him?? Hes legit. Hes handled my case and some of my roommates and friends and all had sex charges.
You cannot blame F.A.C for wanting to go through the vetting process before putting someone on their page. Imagine if we did not know what we know now about Clearmycase and they put that on their page and we all got scammed ?
I applaud the organization for going through the process of doing their best to make sure anyone they put on their referral page has been somewhat looked into.
They might check their standing with the Bar association. Check some review sites etc to see if there are numerous complaints against them etc. You should be happy, if they are an honest law firm, it is a good thing when they make it onto this sites page. No one knows me or you or any of us so just our word is not good enough to protect others. Wouldn’t you yourself want to know before hiring someone that they are on the up and up? I for one sure do.
Correct – if an attorney purporting to do work in this area can’t rattle a few statute numbers or precedent setting cases off the top of their head, they should not be representing someone in this situation. I’m not saying anyone is or isn’t qualified, just saying that if we are going to promote someone to our members we want to make sure they know what they are doing.
Well Mr. Steele has done wonders for me and 2 other people I know in post conviction work. Yall asked for a guy in the Jacksonville area so there ya go. Do what you want with the info. I’m not going to call him and ask him to call you guys. Just look up his info and call him for your own sake.
Will do, thanks MJ!
Agree, good idea for FAC to reach out to such an individual. Thank you FAC Legal.
