Summary

This document is page 9 of a transcript from a SORA (Sex Offender Registration Act) hearing filed on July 15, 2019. The defense argues that the original Florida prosecutor, Lanna Belohlavek, stated there were 'no real victims' and that the conduct was 'commercial' and voluntary, lacking force. Ms. Musumeci addresses the court regarding the Florida investigation's conclusion that the offense was non-registrable at the time, though the Judge counters that it is registrable in the current jurisdiction.

9 All of the alleged conduct that is cited in the
10 board's write up was commercial conduct. All of the alleged
11 conduct the women went voluntarily, there are no allegations
12 of force certainly none.

14 the marine either, who met a girl in a bar, a young girl 17,

16 MS. MUSUMECI: It is our understanding that the
17 prosecutor in Florida conducted a full investigation, as
18 full as she was able with the cooperation afforded by these
19 complainants, and determined that the only case that she
20 could present to the grand jury was this indictment for a
21 non registrable offense then --
22 THE COURT: But it is registrable here.
23 I don't know what you mean non registrable
24 offense.
