RECENT RELEASES - FLORIDA SUPREME COURT
CRIMINAL LAW--SENTENCING--VIOLENT CAREER CRIMINAL--ELIGIBILITY. A defendant's 1995 conviction for escaping from a juvenile facility was a valid predicate offense for purposes of establishing defendant's status as a violent career criminal under section 775.084(1)(d). While the Legislature has chosen to punish juvenile escape less harshly than adult escape, "that does not diminish the force of the Legislature's express statement that juvenile escape under section 39.061 constitutes escape within the intent and meaning of" section 944.40.
