Interesting case out of Chicago. Will probably be overturned on appeal, but still.
Proximity law removed due to constitutional challenge, similar to Florida laws such as Brevard County. When will these be challenged here?

The exploitation of prison labor, and one of the leading reasons for doing so, as well as keeping the number of people in the system.

Florida news: Man wins Internet identifier case. Apparently he allegedly solicited a minor after incarcerated and probation. He allegedly did it again the state tried to violate him for failure to register an email identifier somehow he use that case a few years ago with the guy in Tampa said all sanctions were not paid yet he was still on probation, so he never had a registered sex offender. Then the legislator changed the law the next year to say, and instead of or I guess somehow through some legal lease and he’s right but allegedly so far I haven’t read it all.
I don’t know they wrote a lot about it. It must be very important. https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/fl-district-court-of-appeal/115750803.html
“At the time of Mr. Crose’s alleged offense, he was required to register as a sex offender following his release from “the sanction imposed,” not just a single part of the sanction. Because probation was part of Mr. Crose’s sanction and he was still serving that probation at the time of his alleged offense, the circuit court correctly dismissed this charge. See James, 298 So. 3d at 94.
Having so held, we acknowledge that our decision today calls into question the continued effect of certain portions of supreme court precedents, including Lowry, Lanier, and Leftwich. We, therefore, certify the following question of great public importance to the Florida Supreme Court pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.030(a)(2)(A)(v):
CAN A COURT CONSIDER A CRIMINAL STATUTE’S SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS TO CLARIFY A PRIOR VERSION OF THE CRIMINAL STATUTE CONSISTENT WITH THE SUPREMACY-OF-TEXT PRINCIPLE SET FORTH IN HAM V. PORTFOLIO RECOVERY ASSOCIATES, 308 SO. 3D 942, 946 (FLA. 2020), AND CONAGE V. UNITED STATES, 346 SO. 3D 594 (FLA. 2022)?
We have answered the question in the negative and affirm the order below accordingly.
Affirmed; question certified.”
This is going to get appealed to the Florida Supreme Court, so if I’m still on probation I don’t have to register Internet identifiers is what this case is saying in the second which is Tampa area
so if I don’t register Internet identifiers, why do I need to report out of state travel, I’m not a registered sex offender yet? So why would you pay probation? This is going to get interesting.
MAKES ME WOUNDER IF CONVICTION DATE WAS PRIOR TO STATE TRYING TO CORRECT LAW AND I DID NOT PAY FINES N COSTS IF ONE COULD USE THIS ARGUMENT TO BE FREE?
