FL: Walls closing in on Miami-Dade homeless sex offender issue

[floridaactioncommittee.org 5/7/19]

I guess someone didn’t let Ron Book’s “Homeless Trust” know about the reprieve, because according to Local10 news, “workers from Miami-Dade’s Homeless Trust arrived Sunday night with police to give the offenders their eighth and final warning.”

In fact, the Deputy Mayor had given assurance to Attorney Jeffrey Hearne from Legal Services of Greater Miami, who had prepared to file an immediate legal challenge to the (now 4th) forced eviction of sex offenders, that enforcement action would not begin until AFTER the 10th, which gives the County some time to consider their options.

In the mean time, as word got out that the County planned to shuffle the couple hundred sex offenders to an intersection in Southwest Miami, protesters from that area already started coming out with signs, objecting to the resettlement of sex offenders in their neighborhood.

Officials still don’t seem to get it. The only way to prevent this from happening again is to kill the ordinance that is causing it.

wow!!! So the homeless trust, the police, and civilian protestors ???? All up in arms in their own way against a single group being endlessly punished. At this point it is just plain ridiculous.
