Gov Scott spends millions on frivolous lawsuits and his violation of the sunshine law in which he and his cabinet just settled in mediation to avoid Gerald Bailey former head of FDLE from giving a deposition. , Vetoes all northwest
Florida projects and funding for elderly and disabled children and then
Approves 2 million dollars for a Sea Wall on a golf course in south
Florida and no pay raises for correctional officers in nine years.
This is what you voted for.

One answer would be to keep them in jail, so many are getting light sentences and even being released because of jail over crowding! What does that say about our society? And if they are on Death row, then 30 days is too long to wait and most are there for 20-30 years!! Build more jails, it will create jobs! And stop making prison comfortable for these offenders! Stop talking about their “rights”, they lost these when they committed a crime! Get Tough America!!

Once again prick Scott spouts a bunch of jargon but what it boils down to is he created some high paying jobs for people that he owes favors to and the corrections officers for nine years don’t receive a pay raise New York officers helped there inmates escape and make thirty thousand a year more we keep ours in prison and can’t get a raise maybe they are on to something

Scott and double dipper Jones should focus more on PAYING the correction officers a decent wage. Both seem to favor the convicted felon over working officers. The inmates are running the prisons.
