USF Reports Residency Restrictions Ineffective

We came across the following presentation on a study from the University of South Florida, showing the effects of residency restrictions in Tampa, Florida.

The conclusions were that residency restrictions have been ineffective. In fact, recidivism and the number of sexual crimes increased following their implementation.

    Vaguely no, bluntly your damn straight I am alluding to a legal challenge. I just want the right representation backing me because of who I am. They are gonna throw everything they got at me to shut me up even to the point I am risking my life because of it now. FDLE has lied to cover it up and I have it in writing! I made sure it is under FOIA also. I had always heard good things about Bubble brain but after speaking with her, God help us! Let me explain exactly who I am so your readers will know facts. On Sept. 13th, 1994 President Clinton signed the V.C.C. also known as the Biden Crime Bill. That is where the Federal registry actually started. On October 31, 1994 Gov. Whitman of New Jersey signed the first ever Megans Law public notification of the registry. On Feb. 19th 1995 I became a New Jersey Megan’s Law John Doe Retroactive. I was forced to register pending constitutionality of the law. On July 25, 1995 John Doe v Puritz Megan’s Law was found Constitutional. Even though it is not an extension of punishment you must provide these men “Due Process” who were being placed on it retroactive because “Public notification implicates a privacy interest in nondisclosure, and therfore triggers due process. That was their ruling. I’m a July 26th Megans Law public notification challenger from a Tier Level 2 Assessment into a Tier Level 1 Civil Judgement in late 1995. It was to register only for 15 years not for public notification. On July 27th 1995 Congressman Richard Zimmer (R) Dist-12, Mercer County, Hamilton Twp. ( Kanka’s Congressman ) introduced H.R.2137 into the House of Representatives. ( The May 17th 1996 Amendment) This Act may be cited as “Megan’s Law” What he did was strip out Tier Level 1 in name only placing low level non violent people forced to register into a higher severity classification for a 100% public registry Amendment. THAT is also where he stripped out the due process with the removal of the classification of not for public notification. We will come back to this in a bit. We took it to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in E.B. v Verniero August 20th, 1997 This ruling was only for Retroactive registrants and what was NOT a punishment under the Ex Post Facto and Double Jeopardy clauses of the U.S. Constitution. Now if you read the ruling Introduction par 3 and 4 is where you will find their ruling. Burden was on 117 of us who challenged at that time. NOW scroll down to C2 New Jersey Administrative Office of the courts reports that as of May 6th, 1996 there were 528 registrants designated as Tier 1, 585 as Tier 2 and 59 as Tier 3 or 45%, 50% and 5%. He put the 45 and 50 together. That is where I am 1 of the 39 they should have not put on any public registry. But the smoking gun is right there. May 6th, 1996. Go back to the Federal Amendment 5/17/1996 and look at when it was considered and passed. May 7th… How many in Congress knew this Federal Amendment was going to be punishing nearly half of the registry with public shaming wrongfully? I moved to Lee County Fl on 12/01/1998 who received the Civil Judgement packet but LCSO / FDLE refused to honor this judgement and is now saying I established residency in 2006 to cover it up. “We also want to make sure we are disseminating good information” That good enough? I got more! 20 years of trying to drive me out because she knew…
