It still may pass. After reading it, they didn’t like the wording of the penalties , up to 30 years in prison due to being more harsh than an actual sex offense. What they will probably do is re-write the law and re-propose it in the next session with less harsh penalties.
On a side note, most registry violations, like forgetting an email address you owned during the civil war times, still carry a max sentence of more than many got for an actual sex related offense.
For example, some got 10 years probation and yet almost all violations carry some sort of prison sentence although the so called crime, never hurt anyone.
Like I said before ( And many others ) they are just trying to somehow get us all into prison camps. Surprised they have not built special sex offender camps in each state with 500 foot tall walls with razor wire and armed tower guards.

If you are not aware, in Florida at least, they ( The registry Nazis ) are trying to get all of us at least one NEW charge for anything, even spitting on the sidewalk so that we can never apply to get off the registry.
Even a single re-arrest since you were put on the registry makes you ineligible to apply to get off registry and the law enforcers are eating that loophole up with joy.

Gerald – Thank you for that clarification. I remember the other one and for a minute I was like …wait I thought she did this already. So two different cases.

Just amazes me how WE cannot break the law but a state can Buck the system and tell the courts to go to Hell on an issue they do not agree with. Seems the Governor of any state that refuses to comply with a court order should be taken into custody, at least until he or she complies. They can always appeal but in the meantime comply but they often don’t thinking they have immunity.
Seems to be a one way street. Do as I say, not as I do. Blatant hypocrisy.

Not to be argumentative, having said that, if you watch the news on a regular basis in Florida, Sheriffs around the state often buck the system and challenge the state on many issues, including laws they either do not like enforcing or ones that they enforce that they made up.
The comments made to the above person by their sheriff’s office only confirms that.
Last year I saw a guy at the window while I waiting to be called up. He had some paperwork from the courts reducing his sanctions. The desk lady stated ” When we get something “Directly” from the court, we will look into it”. Since we all register on different months and days, I have not seen him again so couldn’t ask how it went but many of us get that attitude from the registry Prison camp KGB officials.

The registry is a STATE statute. Marion County doesn’t have standing to appeal it to the end of the earth.
