Back in 2008, the man who molested my son was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Because he plead guilty to avoid a trial and the 25 years to life that "Jessica's Law" demanded he got a deal. That deal included what is called in Florida "gain time", it just comes down to time off a convicts sentence for being good in prison. Since June of 2008, he has accumulated almost 6 months off his original sentence.
In April, I have an appointment with my state rep. I am hopeful he will put forward a bill in the next session that would make child molesters and rapists disqualified from this "gain time" program. It is bad enough that they can deal their way out of the justice they truly deserve, but if they do, they should serve everyday of the sentence they receive.
I hope that other like minded people will contact their reps and do the same. This is one of the results of "Jessica's Law", these criminals are now making deals to avoid it, at least make them serve the years they agreed to.
