In reply to Experienced. You are correct in that once a state plea is signed, it assures a conviction if federal charges are brought. A friend got a state judge to reconsider and reduce his sentence for possession. A federal prosecutor thought the punishment too lenient and filed charges. The defendant had no recourse but to deny the plea contents and face an additional perjury charge. This scenario likely happens frequently. Veritas.

We all know jail time is bad but at least jail time ends at some point most of the time probation ends also the real punishment is life on the hit list so I don’t see anyone getting off lightly unless they somehow managed to avoid the list a fate that some died by their own hands to avoid

Another example of someone not on the registry committing a sex offense, so how did Florida’s registry protect that 15 year old girl. Oh wait it doesn’t fit the narrative so I’ll go back to my bat cave. The academy of not protecting minors goes to Florida.

In reply to Jacob. My offense was in Brevard county, and at least there, NO sex offenders get off with a 4 year probation. It is generally 10 years, standard for class 3 felony. So, yes it is a very light sentence and the incarceration is usually minumum, 2 years to 24 months for class 3 felony.

So its not registrants who are luring kids out of schools, its cops?
Interesting. Good thing the registry is keeping the public safe.

In reply to Stephen H.. Agree, we don’t know why he got the deal he got and have no evidence he was treated more lightly for having been an officer. We are an evidence-based org, and the underlying article doesn’t make the point suggested in the FAC headline.

I have to say this is a fair sentence, while I will not discuss my case a few years ago, they were both prosecuted by the two prosecutors so I know them fairly well and can say as compared to a 3rd prosecutor which may of done stuff that hurt my case, these two are very fair. And yes my case is very similar to the officers

Why is this a sweet deal? Are you saying that anyone else would’ve gotten worse? How do you know that?

This headline is something I would expect on FOX news, not FAC!
