Florida’s database with names and mugshots of people convicted of paying for sex suddenly disappeared on January 1, 2024.

The Soliciting for Prostitution Public Database was launched at the start of 2021, and racked up a list of hundreds of offenders, according to ABC. 

The Database mysteriously vanished on January 1, 2024, along with a message saying that ‘the section requiring the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to create and maintain the Solicitation for Prostitution Public Database stands repealed.’

Critically, this is what an insider said about the database:
“The idea was to shame people,’ State Attorney Andrew Warren told ABC.”

Another exhibit in overturning Smith v. Doe? It’s also interesting how quick the Florida legislature was to let this database slide, and how few men they managed to get on it!

They let it slide because they were not getting federal dollars for it.

You mean they had to take care of something they wanted?! NO!

Copy and paste the quote above and use it as an exhibit in court cases going forward.

Could it be that “The Soliciting for Prostitution Public Database” was taken off because the people that are getting on it are the ones that pushed it in the first place?

Interesting that there is no registry for so many violent crimes (I think I would like to know if someone with a history of home invasions is living in my neighborhood), yet the government arrests, imprisons, and puts on a registry individuals because of what that individual has seen.
How many hundreds of thousands of men are in prison, or on the registry, because of what they have seen? Think about it. Also, you could look at a video of a murder of a 15 year old and you would not have committed any crime. However, if that same 15 year old was female and topless while being murdered…. well, you know the result.
Some say that the crime of CP is not the actual viewing of the underage images, but the crime is that the perpetrator “believed” he was looking at a naked minor. Well guess what… when I first watched the movie “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”, I actually thought that Stacy was indeed 16. (she was not, she was played by Jennifer Jason Leigh who was of age at the time of filming).
So, does that mean that I viewed CP because I believed I was seeing a naked minor? Should everyone that watched that movie be investigated for viewing CP because the person on the screen said that they were 16 years old?
So then that brings me to this point… what about those that WANT to look at CP but do not look at CP? Are they guilty of a crime in the government’s eyes?
I know that my rant is off topic. But I just wanted to see what other’s thought.
Thanks.

I’m pretty sure that someplace, in an Iron Mountain (NYSE IRM) warehouse… next to the Ark of the Covenant, is a tape with a backup copy of the database.
