It’s hard to imagine working here without seeing her smiling face, hearing her optimistic reassurance and encouragement, and relying on her wise counsel as we go about our daily tasks. And it’s not just the JC staff who will miss her – so will her friends in law enforcement, the State Attorney’s Office, the media, and business associates who have supported our organization. And, of course, the countless victims she has loved, comforted and helped in so many ways throughout the years. For the past two decades Ann has been the heart and soul of the Justice Coalition, the face everyone recognizes. Her sincerity and integrity clearly shine through in what she says and does, and her tremendous energy is always focused on helping others – anyone who has a need. Devastated people who are victims of violent crime, or who have murdered or missing loved ones, are the reason we exist – to do whatever we can to alleviate their pain, meet their needs and accompany them through the maze of the legal system as they seek justice for their loss or assault. When Ted Hires started the Justice Coalition back in the mid ‘90s, Ann was one of the first persons he recruited for his team. Her background in marketing and broadcasting – along with her compassion for people who are hurting – made her a natural to work with him at the fledgling organization. In her various roles throughout the years – Financial Support Coordinator, Victim Services Practitioner, Executive Director since 2003 – Ann has superbly represented the JC in our community, justifiably earning the admiration, respect and affection of those who have interacted with her. She has successfully lobbied for new or tougher laws regarding criminals and to benefit victims, including: • The 85 percent ruling: criminals have to serve at least 85 percent of their sentence time. • Gain time: criminals no longer receive 20 days gain time for every 30 days Governor Scott signs predator law. served. • Jessica Lunsford Law: designed to punish child sex predators and reduce their ability to reFarewell (Continued on page 2) The views, opinions and positions expressed in articles submitted by monthly and/or periodic contributors to the Victims' Advocate newspaper do not necessarily reflect the views of the Justice Coalition By Ray Tuenge, Sr. Maddie Clifton was a beautiful 8-year-old girl living in the San Jose area when she was brutally murdered in November 1998. Her neighbor, 14-year-old Josh Phillips, beat her repeatedly with a baseball bat, slit her throat, and then stabbed her multiple times. He hid her body in his bedroom under his waterbed while he participated in a massive search for Maddie by law enforcement and the community. His mother found Maddie’s body a week later. Maddie was not the only victim of Phillip’s horrendous crime. Her mother and her sister, who was 11 at the time, have also suffered throughout the last 18 years as they have dealt not only with her brutal murder but with the never-ending legal wrangling over her murderer’s legal rights. Now, as a result of U.S. Supreme Court decisions, Phillips’ attorneys will petition the court to reduce his life sentence, and once again Maddie’s family will be re-revictimized. The Justice Coalition has been instrumental in assisting family members of such horrible crimes through the legal system, and the State Attorney’s Office (SAO) has requested our assistance during the upcoming re-sentencing hearings. Our Senior Victim Advocate Lysa Telzer will be in court to provide support for Maddie’s family – her mother, Sheila DeLongis; father, Steve Clifton; and sister, Jessica Clifton – through their current ordeal. Phillips was tried as an adult and convicted in July 1999. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, and his sentence was upheld in 2002 by an appeals court. In November of last year, Phillips’ attorneys began to seek re-sentencing based on recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions. We interviewed Assistant State Attorney Bernie de la Rionda for clarification of the legal basis of Phillips’ latest legal attempt to reduce his sentence. He told us defense attorneys have filed two legal motions, the first of which relies on two recent Supreme Court cases. In 2005, the Supreme Court ruled (Graham v. Florida) that juveniles convicted of a non-homicidal crime could not be sentenced to life without parole. This case required the states to give juveniles an opportu- nity to demonstrate that they have matured and have been rehabilitated. In 2012, the Supreme Court ruled (Miller v Alabama) that minors under 18 at the time of committing a murder could not be sentenced to mandatory life sentence without allowing an opportunity to consider at a future date the defendant’s background. To conform to the U.S. Supreme Court’s rulings, Florida passed laws that provide an opportunity for hearings for offenders sentenced for crimes committed while they were minors. As a result, Phillips’ attorneys started in November seeking a hearing to obtain a reduced sentence to less than life. Maddie (Continued on page 5) When Our Heroes Are Victims By Mayor Lenny Curry On May 4, I urged citizens to join me in supporting law enforcement officers and remembering those whose lives were lost in the line of duty by proclaiming that day Jacksonville Police Memorial Day. Sheriff Mike Williams, Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO), the family and friends of Jacksonville’s fallen officers and I honored the memory of 61 Jacksonville law enforcement officers who lost their lives in service to our great city. The tribute, which took place in front of the Police Memorial Building, included a final roll call reading, a 21-gun salute, flag-folding ceremony, and a missing man flyover from JSO’s aviation unit. Too often, we fail to recall that every day men and women risk their lives for the benefit of our community. It’s an incredibly sad day when our heroes are victims. It takes great courage and character to answer the call of service to protect the freedoms of citizens throughout this community. Officers escort family members of fallen officers to the ceremony on May 4, 2016. Photo courtesy the City of Jacksonville Here in Jacksonville, more than 1,700 men and women have selflessly answered that call. The next time you see one of them, take a moment to offer thanks, and remember to pay homage to the slain officers and their families who have sacrificed their lives for our safety. JSO, we thank you and honor the contributions you make to improving lives and communities.

New Laws – Juvenile Records By Jay Howell There has been a significant amount of misunderstanding and myths concerning the public or private nature of juvenile criminal history records. These documents are sometimes referred to as a "rap sheet.” If the juvenile criminal court system is confidential, then why are some of these records available to the public? This is a confusing area of the law. Florida has two statutes, §985.04(1) and §943.053, that concern the confidentiality of juvenile records and when they may be released. Juvenile offender records have traditionally been confidential and treated differently from other records in the criminal justice system. As a general rule, access to the records of juvenile offenders is limited. There are exceptions. For instance, photographs of juveniles may be shown by a law enforcement officer to a victim or witness to a crime for the purpose of identifying the perpetrator. These same photos may also be used in a photographic lineup or “photo spread.” The 2016 session of the Florida legislature has attempted to clear up some of the confusion and inconsistency in the law. This year, the Legislature passed a bill that reaffirmed the basic confidentiality of juvenile criminal history records but also addressed the records that would not be confidential. The new law specifies that the following juvenile records are not confidential and exempt: • the records of a juvenile who is taken into custody by law-enforcement for the violation of the law which, if committed by an adult, would be a felony; • the record of a juvenile who is charged with a violation of law which, if committed by an adult, would be a felony; • the record of a juvenile who has been found to have committed an offense, which if committed by an adult, would be a felony; or • the record of a juvenile who has been transferred to adult court. The new law also removed language which stated that the records of juveniles who had committed three or more misdemeanors are not confidential. Now, those records are confidential and exempt. Juvenile criminal history information is available to criminal justice agencies, the person to whom the record relates or their attorney, or the parent, guardian, or legal custodian of the person to whom the record relates. Until 1994, law-enforcement agencies generally could release only the name and address of juveniles age 16 and older who had been charged with or convicted of certain crimes. In 1994 the laws were modified and expanded to provide that if the crime committed by the juvenile would have been a felony if committed by an adult, then the identity of the juvenile perpetrator Faith Corner The Faith Community holds the key to true restorative justice for all mankind. Many churches and businesses support this concept. The Justice Coalition wishes to thank the following for their support: Tillman Building Services Inc. Roofing Division Terry Tillman II President 904.845.8280 office: 904.527.1362 fax: 904.527.1463 Also Commercial & Residential Repairs tebo@tillmanroofing.com Fl. Cert. Roofing Contractor CCC1327969 Fl. Cert. General Contractor CGC1512791 www.tillmanroofing.com could be released. That is why you will often see the identity of juvenile perpetrators in the news - it's because the crime they are arrested for, charged with, or convicted of, is a felony. The new law continues that policy and is identified in the 2016 section of the Florida legislature as committee substitute for House Bill 293. It Farewell was approved by the Governor on March 24, 2016. Jay Howell, a Jacksonville attorney, has been a State Prosecutor, a US Senate Investigator and is the founder of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. He represents crime victims in civil claims for damages and advocates for the legal rights of all victims. – Continued from page 1 offend. • Closing arguments: giving prosecution last arguments to jury before deliberation. • 10-20-Life: Using gun committing felony mandates sentencing guidelines.

Pellot Sergeant Dennis Pellot, assigned to Patrol Zone 4 which includes the Westside of the city, is recognized for his overall work ethic and lengthy list of contributions to the agency. Once assigned to work in JSO’s International Affairs Office, last fall he was a special guest on a local Hispanic radio show, where he conversed about crime prevention, talked about recruitment efforts at JSO and discussed the functions of the International Affairs Unit on its ten-year anniversary. He was one of the Unit’s original members. Last August, Dennis facilitated a community meeting with business owners in the Riverside area who were upset over police response times after the murder of a restaurant employee in the area. He worked with the Communications Center Staff and his Assistant Chief to effectively address the concerns of these business owners. In addition he: • Managed and supervised Zone 4’s part of the traffic safety grant funded by the Florida Department of Transportation. This grant focuses on educating pedestrians, bicyclists and drivers and decreasing crashes and fatalities. • He organized a plan to address crime in Zone 4 during the summer months. This resulted in a 30 percent decrease of violent crimes and property crimes in the designated areas. • He also oversaw the holiday overtime budget and was responsible for planning the safety and traffic enforcement for the 32nd annual Luminaria Festival that took place in December in the Riverside/Avondale area. • He assisted NAS-JAX with its National Night Out and with updating general and operational orders. In late 2015, Dennis and his team began planning for Zone 4’s second annual Safety Fair at the Oakleaf Town Center in mid-January this year. His responsibilities included coordinating volunteers who assisted at the event and getting the word out to the community. Sheriff Williams said, “Dennis, thank you for your dedication to community engagement. I am honored to present you with the Police Supervisor of the Month Award.” Corrections Supervisor of the Month Jason A. Rogers Corrections Lieutenant Jason Rogers is the first Lieutenant to be honored in the “Supervisor of the Month” for police and corrections categories since it was opened to those with this rank last fall. Jason, who works in the Services Unit at the prison, is recognized for outstanding work performance and leadership that he displays each day. He oversees the prison’s warehouse and procurement operations, maintenance, compliance and accreditation, food services, and the Prison Industries which include the mattress, alterations, embroidery and welding shops. In addition, he is also the Lieutenant for “A New Leash on Life” – the pet adoption program run out of MCC. This program, started in 2013, teaches inmates how to train dogs using positive reinforcement techniques, reducing the likelihood of these animals being euthanized. If dogs living at the prison for eight weeks are well trained, they are more adoptable. Inmates enrolled in this program also reap the benefits, as it helps reduce their stress level and teaches them valuable life skills including teamwork, responsibility, patience, and job skills relating to canine care and training. This program has become the DOC’s flagship vocational program. Its success has caught the attention of the media and raised the profile of the non-profit organization, Pit Sisters, and the Jacksonville Jaguars. Fifty-five dogs have completed the program and been adopted, and three inmates in the program are employed in the animal care business. One of them received a scholarship from the Taylor Foundation to attend the Penn Foster Dog Obedience Trainer Certification Course to become a licensed canine trainer. Jason is also responsible for coordinating the construction of the new Health and Rehabilitative Facility at the prison, a project started in 2012 and begun last June. He conducted research into what would be needed in the clinic and worked with city architects, building engineers and the JSO medical department to develop a detailed plan and create blueprints for the new facility. He determined projected costs for this project and what effect its construction would have on the overall operations at the prison. Jason and his team also spearheaded numerous cost-saving projects throughout the past few years, including the combination of inmate mattresses and pillows into one product (saving $20,000 a year). The Alterations Shop saves the department nearly $30,000 by making needed alterations for JSO uniforms in-house utilizing inmate labor. Last fall Jason’s team added an Embroidery Shop that will help save taxpayers’ dollars. Most recently, he worked with Aramark, food service provider, to develop the “In-2-Work” program, which offers culinary and restaurant management training for the inmate population. Jason was recently awarded a partial scholarship to attend Jacksonville University’s Prestigious Masters in Public Policy Program. In the past few years numerous staff working under his command have received Supervisor, Officer and the Civilian of the Month and Year awards – yet another example of his leadership abilities and high standard he sets for himself and his team. Chief of Prisons Division Mike Devlin said, “He expects the best of himself and his staff and that is reflected in their consistent outstanding work performance. Hands down, Jason has one of the most productive, tight knit teams I have seen and had the pleasure to work with during my entire career.” JUNE 2016 Police Officer of the Month Eric L. Jones Detective Eric Jones, assigned to JSO’s Violent Crimes Task Force Unit, is honored for the dedication and persistence he displayed when investigating the case of a JSO officer and his family who were victimized. One evening last July, the residence of an undercover detective was shot at several times while the officer, his wife and children were sleeping inside. The investigation showed that the bullets entered the home near the location of one of the kids’ beds, where the child happened to be sleeping at the time. The Violent Crimes Task Force was called to the scene to investigate this serious crime. Eric was assigned as the lead detective in this case and worked tirelessly to find who was responsible for this potentially fatal incident, often working many extra hours and during the weekends. He interviewed numerous persons of interest and coordinated with the JSO Gang Unit, so there would be good coordination and extra manpower to assist in locating gang members who may have had helpful information. Despite hitting what seemed to be a dead end, Eric refused to give up. He led efforts that resulted in gathering enough testimony and ballistic evidence to identify a suspect and make an arrest. The suspect has been charged with four counts of Attempted Second Degree Murder and one count of Shooting Into an Occupied Dwelling. The case is currently pending prosecution. Detective Jones’ supervisor, Sergeant Bobby Lyle had this to say: “It comes as no surprise to observe the relentless and tireless effort that Detective Jones put into dissecting this case as he does with every case he is assigned. Through his efforts, an unknown juvenile violent crime gang was revealed. The leader became the main subject in Jones’ investigation. He was able to determine that although the undercover detective was not the target of the shooting, a member of his family was. After many interviews and a complete examination of the players involved in this juvenile gang, Jones was able to arrest the shooter and several other participants who are all still awaiting trial. Because of his effort, the JSO Crime Analysis Unit and the JSO Gang Unit have been able to gather an immense amount of information about this gang, which caused its rapid disbandment.” Sheriff Williams said, “Eric, thank you for your dedication to solving this case. Your dedication to your brothers and sisters in blue does not go unnoticed. I am honored to present you with the Police Officer of the Month Award.” Corrections Officer of the Month David L. Lucas Corrections Officer David Lucas, a Technology Security Officer at the Montgomery Correctional Center, is recognized for assisting with a project that led to cost savings and is commended for his overall approach to his job. In 2015, while the prison was undergoing a facilitywide control panel and intercom upgrade, David singlehandedly supervised the removal of the old equipment and the entire installation process of the new equipment. This project took several months to complete and he voluntarily worked longer days to not only accommodate the schedule of the contractors, but to expedite the installation process. David also offered to perform some of the labor involved with the installation. He and Eric Moore, an electrician who works at the prison, assisted with running new communication cables and wiring. This saved taxpayers nearly $25,000 throughout the course of this project. In addition to working on lengthy projects such as that one, David also serves as the prison’s liaison with JSO’s IT Department; he is the “go-to” person regarding all hardware- and software-related issues at the facility. His day-to-day responsibilities also include: • Maintaining all security key and lock inventories for the facility. This includes all of the personally issued key sets for approximately 150 employees, the entire key box inventories for the buildings at the prison as well as the key logs. • He also uses his skills as a certified locksmith to assist with lock and key repairs throughout the compound. He is known for having keys repaired or replaced within minutes so that normal operations of the facility are not affected. • David also works with outside contractors who complete the maintenance and repairs for all internal and external electronic gates; this includes ID scanners that are used throughout the compound. • Also under David’s purview of responsibility is maintaining and updating the prison’s Intranet page so that employees can access it for any vital information they may need during their shift. Finally, David volunteers to help with community outreach and educating citizens about the prison by assisting with the semi-annual presentation to the Citizen’s Police Academy class and by representing the facility at Safety Fairs held throughout the city. Corrections Lieutenant Stephan Starling said, “David is constantly juggling numerous projects simultaneously while neglecting none of them. [He] continuously exceeds the expectations of his supervisors, and he goes above and beyond what is expected of him on a daily basis.” Sheriff Williams said, “David, your willingness to go above and beyond what is expected of you does not go unnoticed. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to this agency. I am honored to present you with the Corrections Officer of the Month award.” THE JUSTICE COALITION’S VICTIMS’ ADVOCATE • 3 Appreciation from Matrix Program graduate June 2016 • Volume 22, Issue 3 Founder Ted M.

Rutledge Lou Webber Sheriff Mike Williams The Justice Coalition was founded in 1995, when one man’s priorities were changed. Ted Hires was the average businessman working 60 to 80 hours a week and looking out for himself until the day when he and his staff were robbed at gunpoint. As a victim of a crime, Ted found the crminal justice system worked harder for the criminal than the victim. As a result of his experience, Ted formed a (501(c)(3)), non-profit organization, Justice Coalition, which continues Ted’s mission of assisting innocent victims of violent crimes in the Fourth Judicial court system. Since 1995, the Justice Coalition has been fighting crime every step of the way. Fugitives captured are through a partnership with local law enforcement agencies, the media, and citizen involvement.

By Angela Corey State Attorney 4th Judicial Circuit We often receive phone calls, letters or greeting cards from our victims thanking us for helping them through the complicated legal process and seeking justice in their cases. However, what you may not realize is that we are also contacted by those we prosecute. Recently, a defendant we will call “Chris” sent us a letter at the State Attorney’s Office thanking us for helping him get his life back on track. Chris told me a little about his story in a two-page letter. “I was sentenced to a year in county (jail) with special conditions that I complete the Matrix Program. This was possibly the best thing for me in my own opinion, rather than doing prison time,” Chris said. He then went on to share how by sending him to Matrix, a drug treatment program, allowed him to identify his addiction as well as other negative behaviors. “I have become a better person in my recovery,” Chris noted in his letter. In fact, Chris made the decision to extend his time in the Matrix Program in order to “work on some unfinished issues.” He successfully completed several classes such as the “Thinking for a Change” and MADD Victim Impact Panel class. He also decided to complete the Literacy Tutor program in order to help other inmates with their education. Chris told me that he was, “…very thankful for you giving me a second chance; a new beginning…I can’t express how grateful I am to be in the position I am at considering where I should be.” To read the full letter, go to https://www.scribd.com/doc/306517668/Defendant-Letter. Chris’ story is just one of many examples of how we carefully review each case and make the appropriate decision to seek justice for our victims, keep the community safe and help those who deserve a second chance.

At a future hearing his lawyers will argue mitigating factors allowed under Florida law, including the defendant’s age, maturity, intellectual capacity, and mental and emotional state at the time of the offense, as well as the defendant’s background and the effect of immaturity, impetuosity, and “characteristics attributable to youth on the defendant’s judgment.” De la Rionda informed us he will argue that Phillips deserves the life sentence he originally received because of several factors, including the horrible nature of the murder and the effect of the crime on the victim’s family and the community. Lysa Telzer will work with the SAO and with family members to ensure that the court understands Phillips’ horrendous actions 18 years ago still affect their daily lives, as well as the entire community. We interviewed Maddie Clifton’s mother and sister so they could communicate to readers of the Victims' Advocate how the legal maneuverings of the legal system have impacted their lives since Maddie’s murder. Ms. DeLongis told us that, while the legal system ensures that Josh Phillips gets all his constitutional rights, the rights and needs of the family members of victims of such hideously vi- Sheila DeLongis (Maddie Clifton’s mother) with JC Victim Advocate Lysa Telzer. olent crimes have at times been neglected; they have been “re-victimized” time and time again. Her marriage and family life has forever been affected by the pain of losing her beautiful daughter. Meanwhile, she has had to listen all these years about how Phillips was “just a boy” and how he “matured” in prison. She said the court system is sometimes insensitive to the effect of legal proceedings on the family members. For example, a hearing was held in November last year on the 17th anniversary of Maddie’s disappearance, creating a tremendous strain on her emotions at the time. Also, after she moved out of the city to a remote area, seeking peace and calm, she discovered that a sex offender was allowed to move into a house across the street. Despite the pressures of such re-vic- timization, Ms. DeLongis can be proud that she raised Maddie’s sister to become a very accomplished adult. Jessica, who was a Jacksonville Jaguar cheerleader for two years, attended the University of North Florida. After obtaining a degree in Criminal Justice, she worked in the State Attorney’s Office for several years and now works as a paralegal and as a dance instructor. While working at the SAO, Jessica became very involved in Phillips’ case. At one point, she corresponded with Phillips and even tried to visit him in prison but was prevented by his attorneys. Although she kept an open mind during her communication with him, she concluded that he was still a very dangerous person. She strongly believes that Phillips should remain in prison for life. Even though she also feels the ongoing legal proceedings are a form of re-victimization, Jessica is more concerned about the effect on her mother. She said she has grown to appreciate how much her mother shielded her from the publicity and turmoil surrounding her sister’s murder. Otherwise, she may not have been able to grow up normally and be as happy and successful as she is. She is currently engaged and plans to marry next year. For victims’ families, the road to justice seems unending, even though the criminals have perhaps been sentenced long ago. The first of many hearings regarding Phillips will begin this month and, hopefully, will eventually lead to a final resolution. Logistics of Body Cameras for Police By Sheriff Mike Williams In light of the [recent police-involved] shooting, public discussion has once again turned to body cameras, and I will again reiterate my position on this. I continue to support the use of body cameras by police. I know that a large amount of citizen complaints and other allegations of wrongdoing can be effectively handled with this tool. We have been looking into body cameras. There have been statutory corrections made to the law recently which will help. The challenge for large law enforcement agencies like JSO is the funding AND the sustainability of camera programs. We have to ensure that every police officer is outfitted – this can’t be random or partial. We have to ensure that the hardware and software are properly maintained with upgrades and required maintenance. And, the unknown costs of ever-increasing storage of the data must be considered, as our storage/infrastructure needs will grow exponentially as officers’ video is downloaded, stored, reviewed, edited for legal exemptions, etc. Infrastructure requires that we have all the resources needed to fill records requests. Once we start the program we cannot simply do away with it because of a lack of revenue. This isn’t something a grant can be used to pay for, because grants do not automatically recur each year. Stability for a body camera program is possible ONLY with a continual annual revenue commitment – it must be sustained once it begins. The start-up cost is estimated at $3-$5 million. This expense must be looked at in the context of the annual essential costs of hiring, training, and outfitting officers with cars, computers, software, uniforms, guns, ECDs, bullets, salaries, healthcare, pension costs and everything associated with the operation of one of the nation’s largest police agencies. Undersheriff Ivey and I spent a day [recently] speaking with community leaders. I want to thank them for taking the time to have conversations with us and for allowing us to answer their ques- tions. Our commitment to the community includes working with organizations that want to have productive dialogue and work together on solutions as we address the issues of crime and violence in our community and policing in the 21st century. Pros to Police Body Cameras • The necessity to record every interaction with residents is bound to minimize complaints about police officer behavior and the unnecessary use of force, because interactions are captured for everyone to see. • Use of the cameras while on-duty provides hard video evidence of decisions made by officers in high intensity situations. • Video recorded by body cams protect any false accusations, misconduct, or abuse against officers. • Increases transparency and accountability of officers. • May help prevent and de-escalate confrontational situations between officers and civilians. • May help provide valuable evidence in obtaining accurate witness and victim statements. • Video footage captured may help speed up court proceedings by providing indisputable proof of situations. This may lead to a reduction in court expenses due to an increase in pre-trial plea bargains or possibly an increased rate of convictions. Cons or concerns to police body cameras • According to early versions of policies governing their use, law enforcement officers must physically activate the camera when they exit their patrol car. The recording equipment must be manually activated when interacting with civilians or recording statements during investigations. However, officers decide when to activate the camera, and for how long the footage is stored, and if and when should it be made accessible to public. For example, the camera can be deactivated when interviewing a victim of sexual assault, to maintain the victim’s privacy. • Privacy issues are of concern for both cops and civilians. How to deal with those concerns is still being evaluated. • Use of body cameras may prevent people from coming forward as credible witnesses to help assist with investigations, due to fear of retaliation or fear of public exposure. • Technological issues related to the cameras may prevent proper functioning at times. This could be due to a dead battery, damaged components, obstructed lens, and other problems. This could result in personnel missing important witness statements or crucial behavior by officers or citizens. • The equipment is expensive. Potential costs involved in their use include the cost of the device itself, ongoing maintenance, and costs associated with storing and maintain the video footage and recorded data that is collected. In addition, costs would be associated with cataloging and retrieving footage in response to subpoenas, investigations and public information requests. The issue is the subject of ongoing debate by public officials, city governments and even members of Congress. https://www.einvestigator.com/police-body-cameras-the-pros-and-cons-for-law-enforcement-and-citizens/ THE JUSTICE COALITION’S VICTIMS’ ADVOCATE • 5 and increased law enforcement efforts will not solve this problem alone.

Flakka, a deadly synthetic drug imported from China, was flooding Florida, leading to some bizarre police reports and in the most unfortunate cases overdose deaths. Flakka was dubbed “Five Dollar Insanity” because it was inexpensive and caused users to engage in psychotic behavior. According to reports, one Flakka user impaled himself on a fence outside a police station after taking the drug. A Florida teen, reportedly high on Flakka, stripped off her clothes and jumped through a closed window, shattering the window pane and causing severe lacerations. A Broward Grand Jury report issued in January linked Flakka to 61 deaths in Broward County alone. While the Flakka craze appears to be on the decline, the threat posed by synthetic drugs remains. Florida law enforcement officers are seeing spikes in the use of synthetic marijuana known as “Spice” in Hillsborough and Pinellas Counties. Videos are surfacing online showing Spice users slumped over park benches or sprawled on the ground in chemical-induced stupors. Because – shockingly – these substances were legal, I acted swiftly to place them on a temporary emergency schedule, then immediately went to work with state lawmakers to permanently ban new compounds. Through these efforts, we outlawed more than 130 chemical compounds found in a host of harmful synthetic drugs, put drug dealers on notice, raised awareness and saved lives. But more needed to be done. In an effort to help law enforcement deal with constantly changing new and harmful compounds, this legislative session we passed a bill outlawing seven different categories of synthetic drugs catatonic. Know the signs, and as school lets out for summer, parents and mentors please talk to students about the dangers posed by synthetic drugs. Let them know that using just once can kill.

I want to personally thank Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams and all of the other officers involved in this case for their hard work and dedication, as well as State Angela Corey for her Attorney steadfast support and assistance. This case is yet another example of our local, state and federal law enforcements’ unique ability to work together as a team in order to keep Floridians safe.

Whether they are young children or teens, learn ways to keep your kids safe and healthy while they enjoy the summer fun. Master water safety Water-related activities are popular for getting physical activity and have many health benefits. Here are some tips to stay safe while having fun: • Learn how to prevent recreational water illnesses and help protect yourself and your kids. • Help kids get H2O Smartz1 about water safety. Drownings are the leading cause of injury death for young children ages 1 to 4, and three children die every day as a result of drowning. • Always supervise children when in or around water. A responsible adult should constantly watch young children. • Teach kids to swim. Formal swimming lessons can protect young children from drowning. • Learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Your CPR skills could save someone’s life. • Install a four-sided fence around home pools. • Recreational boating can be a wonderful way to spend time with family and friends. Make boating safety a priority. • Wear a properly fitted life jacket every time you and your loved ones are on the water. Beat the heat and sun Heat-related illness happens when the body’s temperature control system is overloaded. Infants and children up to 4 years of age are at greatest risk. Even young and healthy people can get sick from the heat if they participate in strenuous physical activities during hot weather. For heat-related illness, the best defense is prevention. • Never leave infants, children, or pets in a parked car, even if the windows are cracked open. • Dress infants and children in loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing. • Schedule outdoor activities carefully, for morning and evening hours. • Stay cool with cool showers or baths. • Seek medical care immediate if your child has symptoms of heat-related illness. Just a few serious sunburns can increase you and your child's risk of skin cancer later in life. Their skin needs protection from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays whenever they're outdoors. • Cover up. Clothing that covers your and your child's skin helps protect against UV rays. • Use sunscreen with at least SPF (sun protection factor) 15 and UVA (ultraviolet A) and UVB (ultraviolet B) protection every time you and your child go outside. Keep mosquitos and ticks from bugging you this summer Protect yourself and your family by preventing bites and diseases, like West Nile virus and Lyme disease, which can be transmitted by insects. • Use an effective insect repellent while playing outdoors. • Make your backyard a tick-safe zone. • Check yourself and your children for ticks. Ticks are easy to remove. Prevent Injuries Each year in the United States, emergency departments treat more than 200,000 children ages 14 and younger for playground-related injuries. Falls at home and on the playground are a common cause of injury. • Check to make sure that the surfaces under playground equipment are safe, soft, and well-maintained. • Supervise young children at all times around fall hazards, such as stairs and playground equipment. • Use stair gates, which can help keep a busy, active child from taking a dangerous tumble. A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head that can change the way your brain normally works. Concussions can occur in any sport or recreation activity. • Learn concussion signs and symptoms and what to do if a concussion occurs. • Make sure kids and teens wear the right protective equipment for their sport or recreation activity. Parents can take many actions to protect their children's health and safety at home. • Stay smart around the house by following tips on fire prevention, microwave use, and living with pets. • The secret word is father. • Learn healthy home tips for each room in the house. Young workers have high job injury rates. Hazards in the workplace, inexperience, and lack of safety training may increase injury risks for young workers. • Know their rights, employer and teen worker responsibilities, and what teens under 18 can’t do. Stop the violence • Kids can use electronic media to embarrass, harass, or threaten their peers. Take steps to prevent electronic aggression, a term that captures all types of violence that occur electronically. • As teens develop emotionally, they are heavily influenced by their relationship experiences, including teen dating. Protect your children from teen dating violence. Nearly one in 10 teens reports having been hit or physically hurt on purpose by a boyfriend or girlfriend at least once over a year’s time. ORIGINS OF FATHeR’S dAY On July 19, 1910, the governor of the Washington state proclaimed the nation’s first Father’s Day. However, it was not until 1972, 58 years after President Woodrow Wilson made Mother’s Day official, that the day became a nationwide holiday in the United States. On July 5, 1908, a West Virginia church sponsored the nation’s first event explicitly in honor of fathers, a Sunday sermon in memory of the 362 men who had died in the previous December’s explosions at the Fairmont Coal Company mines in Monongah, but it was a one-time commemoration and not an annual holiday. Dedicated to the advancement of the law enforcement profession through education, communication and an informed program of legislation. There are more than 70 million fathers in the United States. The next year, a Spokane, Washington, woman named Sonora Smart Dodd, one of six children raised by a widower, tried to establish an official equivalent to Mother’s Day for male parents. She went to local churches, the YMCA, shopkeepers and government officials to drum up support for her idea, and she was successful. Slowly, the holiday spread. In 1916, President Wilson honored the day by using telegraph signals to unfurl a flag in Spokane when he pressed a button in Washington, D.C. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge urged state governments to observe Father’s Day. In 1972, Richard Nixon signed a proclamation making Father’s Day a federal holiday at last. http://www.history.com/topics/holidays/fathers-day JUNE 2016 F Fraternal Order of Police Jacksonville Consolidated Lodge 5-30 5530 Beach Boulevard Jacksonville, Florida www.fop530.com (904) 398-7010 Nelson D.Zona, Cuba, President Steve President THE JUSTICE COALITION’S VICTIMS’ ADVOCATE • 7 Shoot for Justice The team of Daniel Teague, Judge Lance Day, Phillip Teague and Victor Jubran were first-place winners.

Photographer Kevin Floyd JUNE 2016 By Ray Tuenge, Jr. The Justice Coalition relies heavily on the dedication and hard work of many volunteers. None has been more dedicated or hard working than Cindy Mouro, who has performed many administrative functions as well as serving as lead volunteer. In this role, she has assumed responsibility for ensuring that all volunteer activities of the JC are carried out effectively and efficiently. Volunteers at JC perform such duties as delivering 45,000 copies of the monthly Victims’ Advocate newspaper, attending numerous community resource events displaying JC activities, and organizing the many JC fundraising activities such as Champions for Justice and the Together We Can Campaign Breakfast. Born and raised in Gainesville, Florida, Cindy moved to Jacksonville and graduated from Paxon Senior High in 1965. Instead of going to college, she got a job to help her mother support her three younger siblings. She attended Florida Junior College, then obtained State licensing to sell life, health and property and casualty insurance. She became a claims adjuster, and then in Cindy Mouro 1990 became executive administrative assistant to the President and the Senior VP of Miller Electric Company. She retired in January 2012 to care for her husband and the love of her life, Bill, until he passed away in November 2014. her husband’s After passing, Cindy sought to regain her emotional balance and physical energy by helping others. She began searching for something to fill the void left after Bill died, so she prayed about it. She says as a result of her prayers, “The Lord led me to the Justice Coalition where I have been helping out in the office and on special events for the last eight months.” When asked why she chose to become a volunteer with Justice Coalition, she offers the following explanation: “I had met Justice Coalition’s Executive Director, Ann Dugger, some years ago through her outreach to Miller Electric. I admired her passion commitment to and advocating for victims’ rights. Ann reminded me not long before that I had remarked that when I retired one day I would like to do some volunteer work with Justice Coalition.” Cindy says she was accustomed to working at big corporations with all the resources necessary to run an efficient operation. It has been an eye-opening experience to work with a non-profit organization such as the Justice Coalition with limited staff and financial resources. She says “the camaraderie and mutual respect for one another exhibited by Ann and her small staff would make any organization or corporation proud. It makes me feel honored to be accepted as part of the JC family.” So hats off to one of JC’s most dedicated and hardworking volunteers, Cindy Mouro.

A Quiz for our very bright readers! This is a quiz for people who know everything! These are not trick questions; they are straight questions with straight answers. 1. Name the one sport in which neither the spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends. 2. What famous North American landmark is constantly moving backward? 3. Of all vegetables, only two can live to produce on their own for several growing seasons. All other vegetables must be replanted every year. What are the only two perennial vegetables? 4. What fruit has its seeds on the outside? 5. In many liquor stores, you can buy pear brandy, with a real pear inside the bottle. The pear is whole and ripe, and the bottle is genuine; it hasn’t been cut in any way. How did the pear get inside the bottle? 6. Only three words in standard English begin with the letters `dw’ and they are all common words. Name two of them. 7. There are 14 punctuation marks in English grammar. Can you name at least half of them? 8. Name the only vegetable or fruit that is never sold frozen, canned, processed, cooked, or in any other form except fresh. 9. Name six or more things that you can wear on your feet beginning with the letter ‘S.’ Answers To Quiz: Crooks never run out of ways to get something for nothing, and the scams they use to bilk unsuspecting folks out of their hard-earned cash seem endless. Now that summer has arrived and you may be traveling, look out for this one reported by a recent victim: This is one of the smartest scams I have heard about. You arrive at your hotel and check in at the front desk. Typically when checking in, you give the front desk your credit card (for any charges to your room) and they don’t retain the card. You go to your room and settle in. All is good. The hotel receives a call and the caller asks for (as an example) room 620 - which happens to be your room. The phone rings, you answer and the person on the other end says the following: ‘This is the front desk. When checking in, we came across a problem with your charge card information. Please re-read me your credit card numbers and verify the last 3 numbers on the reverse side of your charge card.’ Not thinking anything wrong, since the call seems to come from the front desk, you oblige. But actually, it is a scam by someone calling from Fully Stocked Trucks In Your Area Now! State Cert. No. CFC025597 9. 8.

The one sport in which neither the spectators nor the participants know the score or the leader until the contest ends: Boxing. North American landmark constantly moving backward: Niagara Falls. The rim is worn down about two and a half feet each year because of the millions of gallons of water that rush over it every minute. Only two vegetables that can live to produce on their own for several growing seasons: Asparagus and rhubarb. The fruit with its seeds on the outside: Strawberry. How did the pear get inside the brandy bottle? It grew inside the bottle. The bottles are placed over pear buds when they are small, and are wired in place on the tree. The bottle is left in place for the entire growing season. When the pears are ripe, they are snipped off at the stems. Three English words beginning with dw: dwarf, dwell and dwindle. Fourteen punctuation marks in English grammar: Period, comma, colon, semicolon, dash, hyphen, apostrophe, question mark, exclamation point, quotation mark, brackets, parenthesis, braces, and ellipses. The only vegetable or fruit never sold frozen, canned, processed, cooked, or in any other form but fresh: Lettuce. Six or more things you can wear on your feet beginning with ‘S’: Shoes, socks, sandals, sneakers, slippers, skis, skates, snowshoes, stockings, stilts. “Wh en Florida Qual ity Topsoil Inc.

They have asked for a random room number, then ask you for your credit card and address information. They sound so professional that you think you are talking to the front desk. If you ever encounter this scenario on your travels, tell the caller that you will be down to the front desk to clear up any problems. Then, go to the front desk or call directly and ask if there was a problem. If there was none, inform the manager of the hotel that someone tried to scam you of your credit card information, acting like a front desk employee. This was from someone who has been duped – and is still cleaning up the mess.
