Judge Denies Injunction at Miami-Dade encampment

We just got word that the Judge denied the plaintiff’s request for an emergency injunction.

The news is disappointing, but not surprising.

The plaintiffs were hoping the judge would enjoin the enforcement of the Bovo amendment, preventing the 270+ individuals homeless at the encampment in Hialeah from being arrested. He did not.

Attorneys are evaluating next steps. In the mean time, where these 270+ individuals will sleep tonight remains an unknown. We will just have to see where the next encampment pops up.

    The worst part is the truth that some of these people, like people charged with other offenses, have been unjustly accused – Fl is not the only state to have corruption, there are others. All u can do is pray the Lord intervenes. Why do I have to live in Ocala with a known wife murderer walking the streets, have to put up with chronic sexual harassment just trying to work, put up with people trying to steal my identity to get my social security and my husband, people cloning phones, people stealing anything they can get their mits on, older people living in fear because the thieves are about – the druggies, the drug dealers, etc. etc.
    More than once I have been stopped when walking to go get medicine, etc. only to get stopped by some dirty old man looking for a hooker – its pathetic. I have put up with petty theivery, people breaking into my car to steal tools, stealing clothing, stealing food the minute ur back is turned – and they get away with it , some of them because they have friends in gov’t positions. Several years back their was a man who killed a woman and her daughter when he was driving drunk. He got off for some lame excuse and I , working at a cemetery at the time, had to watch the father/husband crying over their graves – they were just on their way to work. All because the drunk was well connected. Welcome to America.

    The Florida legislature could easily fix this problem by doing what some other states have done: pass legislation overriding all city/county residency ordinances. But, then again, as long as Florida remains under the control of Republicans, that will never happen.

      It’ s it’s not Republican’s, it’s under the influence of Ron Book and his money.

    Do we know if this judge has any ties to Ron and/or Lauren Book?

    A two year probation completed in 2002 , ruined my 40’s now my 50′. From my experience, forget it, pack it up, close up shop. I can’t make ends meet anymore. From here it’s uncompliance, prison, then death
