From the probable cause report - the one not pursued by State Attorney.

“Therefore, enough probable cause exists to establish HOPES intentionally and improperly cause the destruction of public records.”

Report then referenced Florida Statutes Chapter 119.07 (1)(a)

119.10 (1)(a)

119.10 (1)(b)

119.10 (2)(a)

119.10 (2)(b)

“Knowingly violates the provisions of s. 119.07(1) is subject to suspension and removal or impeachment and, in addition, commits a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s.775.082 or s.775.083.”

“Any of the provisions of this chapter commits a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.073.”

A quick check of statutes show first degree fine is $10,000.

I think he can afford this additional $10,000 because well, he did steal $12,778.52 in “unearned taxpayer funds through fraudulent means.”

What do y’all think?
