PINELLAS COUNTY---In Florida, electronic mail or "e-mail" has been determined to be public records subject to the state's Public Records Law.

Pat Gleason, an assistant attorney general and Sunshine Law expert, says there's no exception in the law for conversations or meetings conducted through e-mail.

So how come the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office is trying to block public access to the email messages of Michael Schiavo who claims to be a nursing supervisor---a policy setting position---at the Pinellas County Jail?

So, is MS a nursing supervisor, or isn't he? The article states at least twice that he "claims" to be a nursing supervisor.

I'm sure as we speak that the Sheriff dept. is swapping out hard drives on all computers. Let's face it, most everyone sends at least a couple of non official email from their work station. Let's face it, these folks are so unprofessional, I wouldn't be surprised at what an examination would yield.

I see our fine feathered friends joined the thread almost immediately :-/
