    I take no pleasure in even Mr. Book’s plight in this DUI thing. Perhaps this will give Mr. Book a chance to reflect on all the harm he has caused towards others.

    I’m sitting here thinking….the gall of Ron Book….he’s driving a Lamborghini while simultaneously forcing hundreds of people into homelessness. I mean WTF ??? I always knew he was a monumental ass, but somehow it’s just gotten worse.

    Will FAC be making a FOIA request for any video or other public records of the arrest?

      FYI Book has been charged 8 times in Broward County, 5 times for speed violations. Only 2 were convicted. Would be curious if judges dismissing charges have made contributions. Also interesting if FOIA requests for videos of traffic stops could be made.

      Yeah. Pepe Diaz’s arrest was on dash cam video that was later posted…..We need to get all the documents and videos we can and post them here…..and now that we have his home address, I think it’s high time we ALL send him our “support” in a nice letter and let him know how miserable hes made our lives and our families lives.

    We should not rejoice in another’s suffering.

    But I will anyway.

    I am not from your state, but felt this was one opportunity that could not pass. I have been on and off Missouri’s registry retroactively since it’s inception, with no time and a SIS ( a non-conviction in Missouri). I was removed, then put back on because of SORNA. Whatever law is enacted in any state that affects registered citizens is used by other states to justify these overreaching laws. Anyway, this is what I sent to Lauren Book. I usually take the high road….but oh well.

    Lauren,
    I am not from your state, but the policies, you and your drunken father are part of, affect each and every one of us ex-offenders in the US. You are seeing first hand the ” frightening and high” recidivism of your alcoholic father. Time to get these low class drunken drivers off the street before they maim and possibly kill more children…..remember, ” if it saves one child”. Time for a registry to help parents recognize these dangerous offenders and give them the weapons they need to protect their families. These people belong in prison for life so they cannot have the opportunity to harm again. He needs to be off the street where children play and kept from living within 2000′ of any liquor stores, grocery stores, convenience stores, parks, stadiums and restaurants where liquor is served. He needs to where an ankle bracelet that lets law enforcement know his every move and most importantly a marked driver’s license and a pink plate so other drivers can be safe from this drunken monster. He needs to check in with every law enforcement agency in every town or city he travels in, so they are aware that an alcoholic that can’t control his urges, is in their town…..and no travel out of the country! Too many drunks travel to other countries to indulge in their drinking habits and the last thing we want is for him to be around unsuspecting children. Sound stupid????? So is the SOR. Karma sucks….doesn’t it?

      Dude, that is awesome! You need to type it up in a letter and send a copy of it to her address in Tallahassee and her office in Broward Co. So it goes to 3 locations and cannot be ignored. As a matter of fact, with your permission, I would like to use most of what you said in my own letter that I’m going to send.

      We need to ALL do something like this and BOMBARD the governors office, our legislators offices, Marco Rubios office etc… with as many letters as we can saying that this man has caused undue suffering to registrants all over the US, and is obviously incompetent as he has a serious addiction problem, and compare it to our situation and just let them know that were watching all of this and were not going away quietly. Start writing people!! It will be worth the 1 hour of your time and 55 cents for the stamp.

          Did you send it to her legislative email? Probably won’t even get seen. Or a staffer will get it first and delete it before it even gets to her. I sent a letter to Jeff Brandes office and sent an email. IDK. I just covered all my bases so I bombard them three times instead of just once.

        If someone can post the addresses of the people that need to hear from us ie, judges, legislators, prosecutors, all of the books addresses, phone numbers to call and give our opinion then we can start bombarding everyone with letters about how he should be held to the same letter of the law as the rest of us!
