What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
We were the victim of a peeping tom in Florida.
He has been convicted of the same offense in TN.
My question is in Florida is he guilty of a first offense or a 2nd offense?
If it is his 2nd offense, he is guilty of a 3rd degree felony facing 5 years in prison. If 1st offense, he faces up to 1 year in jail.
Does an offense in one state transfer to a new state he moved to?
