DON’T HAVE SEX ON THE BEACH

I hope it was worth it. He’ll be getting sex in the showers for the next 15 years, but probably not the kind he prefers.

Man Convicted of Sex on the Beach Likely to Get 15 Years

Excessive PDA, excessive sentencing

Couple

Sex on the beach: It’s a delicious beverage, and also a crime. A Florida man convicted of having it (sex, not the drink), is expected to get 15 years in prison, while his girlfriend will serve jail time. Both must register as sex offenders.

The man, Jose Caballero, faces a harsher sentence because he is a repeat offender subject to mandatory minimum sentencing: he was previously convicted of trafficking cocaine and spent eight years in prison. His next stay in prison will likely be twice as long, however, for the comparatively less serious crime of getting intimate with his girlfriend on a public beach in Bradenton, Florida.

According to The Miami Herald, the couple were noticed by a 3-year-old girl. Exactly what the girl saw is unclear; it’s not even obvious that the two were actually having sex, according to video footage of the encounter:

Family members who witnessed the act and a Bradenton Beach police officer, as well as Caballero, testified in the case. The defense argued that the two weren’t actually having sex, but that Alvarez had been dancing on Caballero or “nudging” him to wake him up.

“She wasn’t dancing,” [Assistant State Attorney Anthony] Dafonseca said during closing arguments. “It’s insulting your intelligence to say that she was dancing.”

[Defense attorney Ronald] Kurpiers said since the witnesses had not seen genitals or penetration, and neither was visible in the video, either, that saying the two had sex was speculation.

“You folks cannot speculate,” Kurpiers told the jury. “And in order to say they had intercourse, you would have to speculate.”

Brodsky said they weren’t calling it the crime of the century, but it was still a violation of Florida law.

“Did they try to cuddle, or do it discreetly? Did they go in the water, where people couldn’t see?” Brodsky asked the jury. “Did Ms. Alvarez try to drape a towel over herself, or anything? They didn’t care.”

Excessive PDA? Maybe. Felony carrying a 15-year sentence? No way in hell. They should have gotten off (pardon the pun) with a warning or a fine, but discretion is impossible when judges are bound to follow insanely harsh sentencing laws.

I would be in jail for 1500 years in this shithole

Stucky

We citizens get fucked DAILY. How come we can’t send our beloved congress-critters to prison?

FIFTEEN YEARS …….. for FUCKING????

And then this ………. “it’s not even obvious that the two were actually having sex, according to video footage of the encounter” NO PROOF!!! Yet, the jury convicts. Bastards, every one of them. I wonder why The State wins well over 90% of all cases that go to trial?

This is beyond stupid.

Rules are rules for the brain dead.

Ask the average person who sits on the typical jury how Pennsylvania got its name, and what the case of William Penn means to jury deliberations.

99.99999999999999999999999999999% of the time you’ll get a blank stare.

I think I may be able to shed some light on why people are given prison time for minor infractions. The criminals in government contract with companies to handle the operation of the prison system. Part of these contracts with said companies is that they are guaranteed the prison cells are kept full to capacity so they are profitable.

That is why you may find yourself in prison for 10 or 15 years for what USED TO BE a slap on the wrist and a fine. The mofos will sell you down the river in a heartbeat.

The KEY aspect of the case is the 3 yo kid as modern society is focused on “think of the children” and protect them from reality at every opportunity. Even the child welfare/protection crowd say it’s just crazy.
The poor little kiddy is probably traumatised for life now by witnessing sex – the reason for 99.999% of all life on Earth.
Just another example of how fucked up the entire world is now – the nanny planet.
Well I say FUCK EM – I’ll screw on the beach if I want to but not in front of kiddies…
Ah well…it’ll all be over soon anyway for all of us. Whatever…

My reaction ……

“Please deliver us from this foolishness.”

Which message is sent to whomever is your deity or higher authority is. If none, then you.

I’ll go one step farther “Pretty please.”

If the best way to protest this is to have sex on the beach, then I’m all for it.

There’s a time and place for this, like the local titty bar, $20 spot for a lap dance. Whatever your doing, if the government isn’t getting its cut, it’s illegal.

Hate to sound like a fascist prude here, folks, but I can’t remember a time in this country when sex in public was allowed, let alone considered acceptable. While I think 15 years in prison and a permanent place on the sex offender registry is way excessive, I do think that a heavy fine and a couple of months in jail is not out of line.

Go back to the oh-so-golden 1950s that people posting here think were so wonderful, and you could be arrested for showing “indecent” films- an “indecent” film being one with dirty words spoken by the actor. I’m old enough to remember when you were flirting with “indecent exposure” laws for wearing a bikini.

Not that I advocate returning to the prudishness of the 50s, though sometimes I miss the modesty and civility of that era when I see someone who weighs 300 lbs putting her lard on display in a tiny bikini, or some old man with his gut hanging over his speed-o trunks when I’m on the beach. To me, the willingness of people to have sex in public- this is the fourth or fifth such incident I’ve read about in the past few years- is indicative of how lacking in basic civility our society has become.

OK, it was a man and a woman so there should be some credit for that…it could have been much much much worse. Lesson learned: Play ride’em cowboy way out in the serf and you won’t get sand in the Schlitz or your keister in the calaboose..
