17 year old daughter was acting like her
old self getting ready in her own room

this morning the suspected Prowler who
wrote a vulgar sexual message and was
caught on camera outside her bedroom
window turned himself in I felt happy

was then sad knowing the suspect who was
with his dad when he turned himself in
was just a teenager - the same age as
her daughter I thought this could
been awful but if I would have done what
I was thinking I was gonna do if someone
came in my window or you know what I
mean I wouldn't have been able to live
with that so I'm happy that he turned
himself in him

out a Republican candidate for governor
she wants answers from Adam Putnam on
the state's gun background checks today
state senator Linda Stewart held a news
conference outside the pulse nightclub
in Orlando
she says the handling of concealed carry
permits by the agricultural department
deserves a closer look she's issuing a
renewed call for Florida's chief
inspector general to conduct an
independent investigation we know they
failed to check the federal criminal
histories of hundreds of thousands of
applicants against national criminal
registries for over a year as they are
required to do so by law an initial
investigation found in employees lost
log in prevented national background
checks on 365 applications from February
of 2016 to March of 2017
Putnam says the call for an independent
investigation is a political attack it's
become an extension of the Florida
Democratic Party's governor's race

his office is considering Stewart's
request well water talks tonight in one
central Florida counties yeah why some
