Court challenge in Florida concerning branding driver license with SEXUAL PREDATOR
Attorneys Dante P. Trevisani and Ray Taseff with the Florida Justice Institute have filed an injunctive and declaratory relief request for plaintiff who is being forced to acquire and display a driver license that brands him as SEXUAL PREDATOR and broadcasts the government’s message that he is a danger to the public.
The Florida statute that requires the branding of Plaintiff’s driver license is unconstitutional, both on its face and as applied to Plaintiff, because it compels Plaintiff, and all registered sexual predators, to engage in speech and communicate the government’s message, in violation of the First Amendment.
Thank you, Florida Justice Institute, along with attorneys Trevisani and Taseff, for fighting for our relief from such an injustice.
See the attached Court Document for details.
Had to renew my DL about 8 months ago. I didn’t notice until about two weeks ago that my new license has a hologram in the bottom left corner of the shape of Florida with SO inside the peninsula. How did they sneak this one in?
@Gene
To me the S.O on the license stands for “Suffering Oppression”.
This is so wrong, especially given the fact that there are so many people on the registry that never even caused any harm to anybody or would have ever. This love-hate relationship our country has with sex needs to stop. Our country as a whole clearly has a very unhealthy view about sex.
Please check out this YouTube video where this victim of a fake child predator sting operation explains how law enforcement created this fake crime against him: https://youtu.be/4a-CbtNJFO8?si=jj77G6vWJgUDir00
Please share it with others.
Great video! I had a contact offense, not a sting. I’ve heard stories similar to these. Sometimes it’s a twisting of the situation, sometimes the victim (the entrapped person) capitulates and agrees or does something they definitely shouldn’t have, but in most if not all the sting cases nobody was looking for someone underage. They’re on an adult site talking to other adults and then one cop shows up to entice and create a crime. It’s awful on its own but even worse that it’s a profit-driven industry where cops are seeking huge overtime and departments getting big Federal funds to do it all.
And when law enforcement goes beyond legal standards to the point of entrapment, the judges become like an ostrich and bury their heads in the sand. “Nothing to see here folks, just a sex offender getting what they deserve” is a fitting motto for them.
I often thought about when certain races are beaten by the police, then everyone starts filming. If they saw us getting beaten they would film and the officers would say “This guy is a sex offender” and all of a sudden everyone might suddenly leave or stay and film and egg the cops on to continue beating us. (My view of how we get treated often)
Let’s not forget that the hologram on every Florida registered person DL/ ID includes the letters S O or S P, along with the statute.
The letters can be found inside the state of Florida on Front Left .
This is absolutely disgusting and compelled speach.
I was thinking that as well. It would be nice to know the opinions on that from the attorneys. That is no different than having the words spelled out it would seem to me.
