Following a three-day civil trial, a unanimous jury on Wednesday, April 21, awarded a $22 million judgment against Tracy Todd ____, a former Gainesville resident who is currently serving a 70-year sentence for coercion and enticement of a minor, and sexual exploitation of a minor.
HUGE award and HUGE sentence! Don’t assume courts will give a balanced sentence or awards in this anti-registrant hysteria.
Good luck collecting the judgement.
This was an incredible waste of court resources.
Scavenger attorney exploiting the minor as much as the defendant did. But of course the way the attorney did it was o.k. Because he had the minor’s ,” Best interests” in mind.
Let’s see. You make like $7-9 a day in prison. Assuming you actually work every day for 8 hours..(yeah right) weekends off. That’s a little over 2k a year. 22mil divided by 2k.. let’s see.. you can expect to receive your payment in about 10,000-11000 years.. unless the person dies first.. than your just screwed with fees from an attorney who took advantage of your situation and exploited you as well..
Details, and it could be this is a kind of case that begs for tougher laws and restrictions.

I’m as skeptical of a conviction as anyone, but it might be a good idea to not blame the jury, who are also voters for lawmakers. 22m appears to be more statement than $. Which raises a good question. Who is the enemy? Some might say the courts, or LEO, or lawmakers. To me it is the vigilantes and Gaslighters that sabotage the facts and profit off of moral panic.
