SANFORD, Fla. -- A sheriff has proposed banning sex offenders and predators from public hurricane shelters in his county.

Seminole County Sheriff Don Eslinger said sex offenders should be evacuated to a separate shelter where they can be monitored.

Eslinger told the Orlando Sentinel that he has proposed using a 50-bed work release center at the Seminole County Jail in Sanford as an emergency shelter for sex offenders.

Deputy sheriffs would be sent to the home of each known offender who fails to report to the shelter, Eslinger told the newspaper.

1. Don Eslinger...

... sheriff or not, is an insane fuck.

I'm not fond of sex offenders, but this is nonsensical to the nth degree. This guy wants publicity, not public order.
