-Whatever happened to the expo facto case “doe v. SWEARINGEN” with convictions prior to 1997 that was sent back to the lower court by the 11th District Court ? Was that case canceled by the judge ?
In our recent legal update post at our site, the first sentence says, “Our Ex Post Facto I case in the Southern District is currently in standby but is still alive.” One of the attorneys, Val Jonas, has asked FAC to gather some data for her, which we have been doing. Court cases can take a long time, unfortunately. Nothing happened with this case for a long time as the judge appeared to be waiting for the Ex Post Facto II case in the Northern District to be completed. Now that it has, movement has started in the Ex Post Facto I case in the Southern District that you are referring to.
Our post where the one-sentence statement was made concerning the current status of our Ex Post Facto I case:

Meta/Facebook/Instagram owner Mark Zuckerberg told the US Congress in a letter yesterday: “Zuckerberg wrote. “Our platforms are for everyone – we’re about promoting speech and helping people connect in a safe and secure way.” If that’s true Mr. Zuckerberg, why do you ban people who are forced to register as sex offenders (compelled speach) in Florida from your international platforms?
LOL
as long as we are on the registry, we might as well still be in prison. I think I had more rights and freedoms in prison than I do now off of sanctions (Because so much has changed since then)
And if anyone is fooled, all the sanctions on us are only going to get worse as they pass the test on each new banning that passes muster from the courts.
Surprised we do not have patches on our clothes like some did in Germany during WWII identifying us as undesirables. Of course I guess the registry does that for us huh?
Supreme Court of Missouri cherry picks quotes to say the registry is not punishment https://law.justia.com/cases/missouri/supreme-court/2024/sc100296.html
How is the registry exempt, immune and insulated from being a form of cyberbully and doxxing? These judges would rather let our houses burn down than risk their own houses being burned down by continuing to lie, distort and mislead with “their” distorted version of “not punishment”.
Every time a “not punishment” ruling is rendered from a court, it sets us back years – if not decades!
