We all need Taylor Cadle’s extraordinary courage. Grady could use *any* courage, at all. If he was a “lib,” Ron DeSantis would remove him from office over this case.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If our showboat Sheriff Grady Judd was not a weak, cardboard cut-out of a man, he would apologize openly to Taylor Cadle for charging her with a crime because she reported her uncle-turned-adopted father for sexually molesting her in 2016 at age 13.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Grady Judd was what he pretended to be on TV, he would say the following in public. Note particularly the part in bold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cYes, my agency screwed up terribly. The young girl we wronged and harmed and hauled into court was actually telling the truth about her adopted father molesting her. Jerry Hill [or Brian Haas, it\u2019s hard to tell from the date] prosecuted her and sent her right back to her father to be raped again.<\/strong><\/em> This time she got her own evidence, proved us wrong, incompetent and brutal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re very very very sorry. We failed her in every way imaginable. Here\u2019s why it won\u2019t happen again. And here\u2019s how a 13-year girl today can get a rape exception to forced birth \u2014 both with parental consent and without her parental consent if the parent is the rapist.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

You really have to read and\/or view Taylor Cadle\u2019s story to believe it.\u00a0I just summarized it correctly in a way Grady Judd never will because he just a trash talking moral coward more interested in selling merchandise than protecting women and girls. Key points:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Grady Judd and State Attorney Brian Haas sent Taylor right back <\/strong><\/em>to her incest\/rapist to be incest raped again. This time, entirely on her own, she overcame the gross abuse of incompetent state power to exonerate herself and put her rapist uncle-turned-adoptive father into prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a \u201clib\u201d had done this, Ron DeSantis would remove him from office.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What an incredible, brave young woman. Read the whole story.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than fall all over themselves to put him on a mailer, pathetic local politicians should demand that Grady (and Brian Haas) publicly account for what their agencies did to a incredibly brave, deeply resourceful, endlessly abused little girl, who is now a woman with a spine of steel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No wonder it\u2019s impossible to get a rape\/incest exception to forced birth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is almost impossible \u2014 and getting harder \u2014 for a girl like Taylor Cadle to get a rape exception to forced birth in Florida. Only 11 of the rape abortions on that plunging orange line are clearly exceptions. Story here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Grady shows you why this chart looks like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long before I ever heard about this case, I called on Grady to publicly explain the Sheriff\u2019s Office protocol for granting a rape\/incest exception to forced birth. I asked the same of Lakeland Police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

My article was, of course, met with silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I assure everybody<\/strong><\/em>, if Amendment 4 doesn\u2019t get to 60, I\u2019m coming right back to the Lakeland City Commission to push for LPD to publish its protocol. We\u2019re going to talk about Taylor Cadle the same way we\u2019re going to talk about Deborah Dorbert and LRH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And we\u2019re going to talk about the brutal landscape of fake exceptions until somebody takes some shred of public responsibility for any of this. <\/strong><\/em>See article below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

I also sent this note yesterday to the State Attorney\u2019s Office. I, of course, got silence. I\u2019ll follow up with an actual public records request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

I don’t know if you’re all aware of this terrible case<\/a> in which Grady Judd’s deputies charged a 13 year old girl with lying and your office prosecuted her and a judge sentenced her to probation. Photographic evidence later emerged that her adopted foster father was sexually molesting her, just like she said. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My question: has the SAO officially dropped or withdrawn the case against Taylor Cadle?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is her “record” expunged? Is there any record certifying that she was wrongly accused? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

By the way, Grady Judd is on the ballot Tuesday. You can imagine you\u2019re voting for Taylor Cadle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019d be proud, not ashamed, if she<\/strong><\/em> was my sheriff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
