Gov. Scott vetoes sheriff’s $1 million ‘snitch on your neighbor’ program
Joe Saunders from BizPac Review reports:
Gov. Rick Scott on Monday vetoed almost $368 million in state spending before signing the budget for next year, including $1 million for a violence prevention and mental health initiative sought by the Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw.

Bradshaw’s program would have established a hotline for residents to call when they suspected an individual might be planning a violent act.
If a call were deemed cause for concern, that person might be visited by deputies trained to deal with mental health issues.
In interviews, he cited such incidents as the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut and a movie theater in Auroroa, Colo., as instances where a watchful eye and trained help might have prevented tragedy.
But the proposal drew fire from conservatives when a widespread quote from a Palm Beach Post story fueled fears of government taking action against people because of how they think, not how they’ve acted.

Freda had threatened them, claiming to have Gandalf’s tapes known to them as “Gandalf”s ace in the hole.” Ray had threatened to go public with the tapes and their scam to eliminate Gandalf “one way or the other.” Freda went so far as to stage his own shooting and went on local television with his fabrication and was working with narcotics in the Lubbock Sheriff’s department at that time. This made Freda most dangerous in their minds. Frame Gandalf and kill Freda was the conspiracy that was set into motion. The hired heroin distributor, a Mexican cartel hit man with Gandalf’s gun and a getaway driver standing by, did gain entry into Gandalf’s house, a witness said. But not Freda. He was a no-show and at the time getting involved with the OD of a female heroin addict.
