Attorney Ron advised me the new rule that begins in October will have a Florida department of Law enforcement officer appear in person at your hearing for removal to argue you should not be released from the registry.

To me that seems unnecessary, due to the fact the prosecutor will always tell the judge the state objects to the removals from the registry. So, with two authorities stating that, it makes it an even harder uphill battle. Also seems they will have to hire new officers as that would be taking an FDLE agent out of duty to go to these hearings all over the state of Florida.

According to the bill’s sponsor, if you were to leave at 6 a.m. on Monday morning, the requirement to register has now kicked in and you would have to do so. Concerning the sheriff’s office being closed, this type of thing is a problem in all the statutes that apply to PFR’s. When a legislator is presented with issues such as what you are acquiring about, they have no answer and vote yea on the bill anyway. I would like to see some of them have to follow some of the laws they have passed.

Reporting changes and re-registration is done in person because the statutes say it must be done in person.

What about if you leave at 6 AM, or any time before the Sheriff’s office opens that day? Or if the Sheriff’s office isn’t open that Monday for, say, a federal holiday? Or if the officer there called in sick that morning? Or if you couldn’t get an appointment in the larger counties that require them?

Also, if vehicles can now be updated online, then why can’t all registration updates be done online? Why exactly is it so critical that these things be done in person? Seems that the sole purpose of in-person registration is to increase the likelihood of FTR. Not to mention simple inconvenience.

Wasn t a judge, no order issued it was the actual corrections cop? Just doesnt feel right.

A small number of states (including Alaska and Utah) require registering if you are there for any amount of time, but most states require at least 3 days and many require substantially more, such as Maryland and Virginia, which both require 14 consecutive days or 30 or more days in a calendar year.

Also, if you are still subject to the requirements of Federal SORNA, you may have an independent duty to register certain information related to interstate travel separate and apart from the requirements of any U.S. state or territory.

Read page 1, then start reading at “Effect of the Bill,” mid-way down on page 7, stop mid-way down on page 9, just before “II. FISCAL ANALYSIS & ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT.”

You do not understand the due process because apparently, there is no due process. Most of the time the powers that be do what they want, and it is up to us to challenge them.
For every win we gain, we seem to backslide with new laws, rules, regulations, legislation, ordinances and anything else they can throw at us and keep us down. I think dogs get treated better than us. (No disrespect to dogs)

A cop literally input me on the list when i got taken in. Is that even a thing? Never got a day in court but they dropped everything but kept me on. I do t get it…. dont even understand the due process here. Oh well

@Whyme

Do not feel to bad, there are dead people still on the registry in Florida. How does an expired person pose a threat to anyone? Well the answer is easy, #1 they don’t but #2, the state gets funding for each person on the registry so you can guess why dead people are still on the list.

Also, every time we get a victory, the state of Florida fires back at us. We won the removal from registry at 20 years case, then the Governor signed new laws making it harder to get removed. Lots of things I would really like to say about that but FAC would ban me from here for life.
