A large reason why all of the craziest shit in America seems to happen in Florida is because Florida has uncommon ... automatic transparency, or public availability... or very low privacy rights ... concerning detailed police reports and court records which almost all other states are much, much stricter with, far less often openly releasing such records to the public.
