Winter Park Criminal Defense Attorney
Florida Revenge Porn posters beware. The Florida legislature has passed a Revenge Porn bill making it a crime to post nude photos of your former love interest without their express consent, for the purpose of embarrassing or harassing the person. The revenge porn bill passed the Florida Senate with a 38-2 vote. The Senate passed a weaker revenge porn bill than was originally proposed which would have included email transmissions.
The punishment for these criminal offenses are: A first offense would be a first-degree misdemeanor which could include a sentence of up to 1 year probation and 1 year jail with special conditions of no victim contact, community service and anger management classes. A second or subsequent violation would be a third-degree felony carrying up to 5 years probation, 5 years state prison as well as other punitive measures designed to prevent future violations. The bill now awaits Gov. Rick Scott’s signature to make it a law.
