War Against Child Sexual Predators

We must protect Florida’s children from sexual predators

As Governor I will seek to make all child sexual assaults committed by any one over the age of 21-years-old against any child under 18-years-old, a capital offense.

Prosecutors need the death penalty on the table to get plea deals for life in prison without the possibility of parole.

In child sex crimes prosecutors are faced with vulnerable victims who either can’t or won’t testify against a sexual predator (a child rapist). In almost all cases a child victim will be traumatized further by having to recount the horrific crime. Sometimes the evidence is not as strong as the prosecutor would like.

As Governor I will give prosecutors in Florida the tools they need to keep a child rapist behind bars for life and when warranted the tools to seek a death sentence.

As Governor, all sexual assault (rape) of any adult person in Florida, the offender will face a min-mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.

As Governor, no bail (no bond) will be permitted on all cases of sexual assault (rape) were the suspects DNA is found on or near the victim.

As Governor, no plea deals for sexual predators which does not include voluntary castration. If the offender is indigent the state will pay for the castration of those convicted sexual predators who voluntarily seek help.

As Governor, Darrin will prohibit probation or parole transfers into Florida, in which the person was convicted in the sending State of a sex crime.

As Governor, Darrin will advocate legislation that will make it a felony to enter the State of Florida while having a unresolved criminal charge for a sex crime outside the State of Florida.

Geraldo Rivera says it best, If you are innocent of wrong doing, you will submit to a Police polygraph examination, innocent people fully cooperate with law enforcement. The fact is innocent people do not refuse a polygraph examination.

It’s time to get serious about ridding our streets of sexual predators.
