Friendly reminder that the reason we get funny headlines like this from Florida is that the state allows the media full access to their police records so they can find stories like this
“Innocent until proven guilty” but also your photo is published for posterity so when someone puts your name into their favourite search engine it’s the first thing to pop up, next to a crime you didn’t commit.
The alternative is you try to find Jimmy but he’s fucking gone. The state took him away and there is no record. He’s just gone, arrested, sent who knows where.
Though the point is moot because now the federal government is doing that everyday to whoever they want.

But also because Florida is full of these.
So is my state, but they dont allow this type of thing.
It’s fun to look up your birthday month and day and add Florida man or Florida woman to the search, and then look for the best headlines.
Synergy!
i find this… strangely reasonable for florida? seems to have the potential to bring accountability, at least on paper.
what do usians think of this?

Have they found jimmy?
Sadly, they russled him
His vessel was detained.
that’s a great point against it.
In theory, however it also publicises stories of wrongfully accused people for example. This can have some unwanted and serious repercussions.
All in all I tend to believe that it’s better to let the judicial system work in peace and without an excess of publicity.
I’m not usian though, so I’m not considering the monetary angle.
Eh, not a fan. Florida is a land of extremes…I prefer the extremely beautiful beaches. In the fall, there’s no one around them.
We’re also the 3rd most populous state. It’s also easier to get up to shenanigans when you’re not locked inside by a 40’ wall of snow and ice.
Also there’s a bunch of absolute gibbering morons in the state. That also helps.
