The Chief Judge for the 20th Judicial Circuit in Fort Myers issued a memorandum Friday ordering that no person who breaks Gov. DeSantis' "Safer at Home" executive order be held without bond pending first appearance before a judge. Chief Judge Michael McHugh sent the memo to all judges in his circuit as a response to the coronavirus outbreak.
In his memo, the judge cites a Florida Supreme Court ruling in Varholy v. Sweat that "to grant release on bail to persons isolated and detained on a quarantine order because they have a contagious disease which makes them dangerous to others, or to the general public in general, would render quarantine laws and regulations nugatory and of no avail."
The order will be in effect for the Collier County area until further notice.

True. But a murderer does not defy the Ruling Elite. He/ she just kill and deprive people of their lives. This endears them to the Democrat Party.

And idiots who willfully spread this deadly disease to vulnerable people are murderers. Not akin to murderers — murderers.

I'm thinking that instill of hiding under your bed maybe YOU should be in jail for your own protection....you could ask for solitary confinement...
actually if told the vulnerable people to self isolate instead of the ENTIRE COUNTRY we'd have been better off....

The judge is equating a person driving down the road, by himself with an infected person squeezing the tomatoes in the grocery store.

= = = = = = = = = = = =
I am on the list as one who thinks this is grossly overblown and over reacted
BUT
You are correct. If you know the consequences etc, feel sick and do not stay home you are an idiot and if you pass it along it should be the same as passing ANY STD along with harsh penalties.
That said, I do think they are cooking the books and just throwing beerflu around like they are getting bonus points OR maybe getting more money for more cases.
Why else would it be decreed that if a death COULD POSSIBLY be connected to beerflu, mark it up and don’t investigate further.
FOLLOW THE MONEY
