Final Disclaimer:
Please remember that our company is not a criminal justice agency.
We did not detain RONNIE THORNTON and have no further details in our possession regarding the status of RONNIE THORNTON.

by the First Amendment to both the United States Constitution and the Constitution of the State of Florida.
Kindly also keep in mind that information released as part of a public record does not cease being part of the public domain after an expunction has been granted.
(Please see Cox Broadcasting Corp. v. Cohn, 420 U.S. 469 (1975)). In the State of Florida, pursuant to Fla. Stat. 903.585,
an Order To Expunge requires "criminal justice agenc[ies]" to seal the applicable material. Said criminal justice agencies likely will be included
on the Service List which typically is located on the last page of such an Order.
In short, Orders to Expunge apply to documents maintained on file by courthouses, sheriffs offices, and the like.
"Expungements do not transmute once-true facts into falsehoods. They do not require the excision of records from the historical archives of newspapers or bound volumes of reported
decisions or a personal diary. They cannot banish memories. Expungements are not intended to create an Orwellian scheme whereby previously public information -- long
maintained in official records -- now becomes beyond the reach of public discourse. Although an expunction generally permits a person whose record has been expunged to misrepresent
his past, it does not alter the metaphysical truth of his past, nor does it impose a regime of silence on those who know the truth."
(Please see G.D. v. Kenny, 205 N.J. 275, 301 (N.J. 2011)).
RONNIE THORNTON is 100% innocent of all charges contained on this page until adjudicated otherwise in a court of law.
