Interview With Former Sex Crimes Unit Prosecutor

Recently, Attorney William R. Moore interviewed the former lead prosecutor for the Broward County State Attorney’s Office. Now in private practice as a defense lawyer who exclusively handles sex cases, he is undertaken the overwhelming task of seeking legal changes that would allow individuals to more easily obtain removal from the sex offender registry.

Removal from Florida’s Sex Offender Registry

Individuals seeking removal from the sex offender registry upon reaching the 25 year mark are met with significant challenges. First off, any new offense, regardless of how minor, will effectively prevent removal. Violations of probation will result in a denial as well. Currently, there is no significant research that would suggest a reduction in the amount of offenders resulting from the denial of removal petitions filed on behalf of offenders that have lived crime free throughout the course of the 25 year requirement. There has however been significant negative publicity with respect to the amount of homeless registered sex offenders throughout South Florida.

Logic would dictate that it was never the intention of Florida lawmakers to create transients among registered sex offenders throughout the state. Nonetheless, tougher zoning laws that have further restricted offenders from obtaining lawful residence has resulted in a significant homeless problem among a significant number of those on the registry.

William is an amazing lawyer on the first day he took my case from a felony to a misdemeanor. He always answered my calls and text messages, never a problem. He was always the one in court not sending someone else, unlike my last lawyer. 10/10 would recommend. If I ever have any other problems, he will be the first person I call. Shane B.
