I have a question about the registry, if I were to go visit someone and I go to my local registration place or the sheriff department and let them know where I’m going to be, my question is will my information pop up where I might go where it could potentially jeopardize my friends lease since I’m on the registry, will her neighbors find out and most importantly will her landlord find out? The person I wish to see is handicap and in a wheelchair and the last thing I want to happen is for her to get evicted and end up on the streets…any thoughts on this matter please would be greatly appreciated thank you…Will
While most of the voter case people took probation this guy got hit with 3 years https://www.wuft.org/news/2023/06/08/alachua-county-2020-voter-fraud-case-results-in-3-year-prison-sentence/?preview_id=347306
Again how does this not show the registry is punishment.
This new bill would be so helpful to us instead, I predict a carves out against us. It just one more of those things that show that the registry is punishment. https://www.news4jax.com/news/politics/2023/06/06/gov-desantis-holds-news-conference-bill-signing-in-wildwood/
Did you read the fine print,,,,,,,,Except sex offenders.
Where do you see the exception? I would love to hear from a lawyer. Because this bill/law raises the question of whether our registration requirements are actually public or private?
FAC did not oppose this bill. Where is the bill language that we object to?

Has anyone traveled to Europe since the new SO passports came out? I know england won’t allow any SOs but I’ve heard other countries such as Germany, Sweden and France is ok. Can anyone give some feedback on personal experience traveling?
Thank you
I went to Gambia (west African) for the last 2 weeks of May. My stop over both ways was in Türkiye where I also stayed in a hotel due to the almost full day stop over.
I got my Turkish visa at the Istanbul airport for $40.
When I got to Gambia, I also obtained the Gambian visa at their airport for $150 (good for 5 years).
I had no issues. Not even upon arrival back in the USA. None.
Although I’m off the registry since 2018 (Connecticut) I was certain the felony record would give me problems, but alas, it did not.
Maybe it’s the countries I went to? I don’t know for sure.
I chose the Turkish Airlines route as it was slightly cheaper than Air France which would have made a stop over in Brussels, Belgium. I don’t know if that would have made a difference.
I got my first passport while on probation in 2008. My passport, probation and registration all expired in 2018. I had not used that passport but I also never got any notification that I has to surrender it for any “unique identifiers”.
When I updated my passport in 2018, still no identifier.
