Items in Chapter 33 mean nothing. We are not defined as Law Enforcement under the Florida Statutes or the rules of FDLE.

It is in the 'potential' for a dangerous situation to arise. Much like a police officer can drive around all shift for 30 years and never get in a shoot-out or a guard can work in a prison for 30 years and not get shanked; but the potential for it is always there... Even Judges, State Atty., and Public Defenders get it; ain't that special?!?

One of the reasons
One of the very few reason I left FDC was becuas of this debate.. FL statute says I'm classified as a LEO.. eith some autbroirty to arrestt..according to HR 218 I would have qualified to take my firearm all over the united state.s. I was also excluded from ccw requirement. BUT TO the whole state of FL I was not a LEO.to other agency inwas not a leo to fdle. I was not a leo. To people first .I was confused.. I participated in an event outside the prison walls along other sheriff/ police..we were all in uniform but FDC was the only agency without a firearm..god forbid worse happen I would have to run away or behind a guy with a gun becuase I couldnt help....NOW another reason was obviously the low pay....FOLLOWING by the lack of judgement by FDC staff in regard to officer safety .. outside squad would have 1 officer 10 inmate and the only weapon they had was Oc.regardless what classification would rate them they were still immates/criminals ..they just knew how to work the system to get CM3.. I'll get back to part 2
