Especially in Florida. Doesn't matter if it is a sexual offense, violent offense, DUI or not. A person convicted of a felony is required, by law, to register with the local sheriff's department when they are released from prison. Period. What that means is if a crime is committed in your neighborhood they will be taking a look at the people in that neighborhood. If you are a felon then you will more than likely be questioned. Doesn't matter if the felony is twenty years old. If you are a convicted felon in Florida your employer wants to know. Often this means jobs are hard to come by. Even if it is a nonviolent offense and it occurred twenty years earlier. Nobody in Florida is permitted to simply serve their sentence and move on with their life. In some cases this is a good thing. Often people don't learn their lessons. In fact, the recidivism rate in Florida is horrible. A third of those who are released will reoffend within three years. Pretty sad. But that's what happens when people are put behind a fence with no real attempt to change cognitive thinking. There is no real rehabilitation. So if a person is not motivated, if they do not have a support system outside they are not going to change the way they think and become productive members of society. Our judicial system is a mess. The Florida Department of Corrections is a joke. Full of uneducated who believe they are responsible for further breaking the broken. When a person commits a felony it never leaves them.

Otherwise Escambia County would not have been able to convict him of burglary of an occupied dwelling in 1980 and again in 1986. Both times he stole between $300 and $20,000, a third degree felony. He must have decided he liked North Carolina because shortly after his release they arrested him for crimes in February and March of 1987 for breaking and entering and larceny-over $200. He was incarcerated again in Florida in July of 2008 and released in November of last year. I'm too lazy to check any other states which may have falsely condemned him. This is not the first time he has been arrested for failure to register as a sex offender. David for freeing the innocent I’m not judging the fellow, but

" You can't really pay for a crime. You can only fulfil the requirements of the law in response to that crime. For most crimes, the requirements are fines and incarceration. If the crime is a felony, you lose your civil rights such as the right to carry weapons and to vote and to hold public office.

Legislators decided sex crimes should have another requirement: registration. They did this because offenders tend to repeat. Unlike a murderer who may only murder under very limited circumstances, they are surrounded by potential victims, usually small children (male or female, not that it matters to you) but sometimes old women or even just any female. In very few cases it involves predatory women going after 17 year old boys, but that is VERY rare. Anyway, legislators noticed sex offenders kept preying on the helpless and that quite often some poor child would be raped, tortured and murdered by a convicted sex offender living next door, whose past was unknown to the greiving parents. To protect the helpless, the legislators added the registration and notification requirement. Thus, a sex offender has not paid his debt to society as long as he still lives and is considered a potential menace. Many may have been mislabled. For all I know that is the case here.
