^^^ Huh? What do you mean they are "all from FL?" I would like to know how you came to that conclusion.

I have 190 in my zipcode.

I was just trying to give the OP what I feel is a better overall perspective of the incidence of sex crimes in the state.

I guess thats where the different classifications you were talking about come into. Either way when I did a search by my zip it came up only one rapist and he was a transfer from NY.

If you enter your zip code in. You see all those dots. Click on lets say the blue dot it takes you to the persons profile and tells you where the crime was actually commiited and what the charge was.

I wonder how many square miles that covers though. Once I scrolled down past 5 miles I had stopped looking.

Yes, I know when I click on the dot it says who the person is and what they did, but this person is saying "they are all from FL." I dont know where in the info it says where the person's place of birth is. From what I am gathering, since we are looking at a registry in the state of FL, of course the people listed are going to be residents of this state, but that sure as heck doesnt mean they were born in FL/natives of this state.

I agree it doesn't say where they were born. I read it a different way that the crimes were all committed in Florida except for my "neighbor" the rapist who committed the crime in NY and just registered here.

Yes, I have something similar. A male that lives pretty close to me actually. He's also from New York. Only reason why I know that is b/c he rents a big house out and he used to rent a house with his buddies in the same subdivision. But he moved one subdivision over. He had the NY Yankees stickers and NY license plate, and played that horrible reggaeton music. One time I was walking my dogs and he sped up like he was going to hit us on the side of the road. We exchanged words, but like I thought, he stayed in his car. Maybe if he would have had his "posse" with him, it would have been different. He then drove a little further down the road, and began peeling out in the middle of the road for no reason. A real prick. Needless to say, I have no patience for people like him.

I know they are all scum **** but who would you rather have as your neighbor a child molester or rapist. Personally I don't think that molesters can be rehabilitated?
