I've seen him "represent" clients before. They were better off with him suspended.

This sucker must be made of Teflon. All the BS he's pulled over the years, and he comes away smelling like a rose.

Next thing you know, he'll be running for Governor.

If he'd been white probably wouldn't have made any difference. Look at the charges dropped, etc. on other elected officials in Orange County/Orlando. Probably had to drop charges BECAUSE they'd have been accused of being racists. Surprised Ernest Paige's conviction held up. He is a piece of work though, jumping over fences, etc....running from the media....be sure he has a life-time in the political arena....Jus tlike Daisy.

Just like DC Mayor Marion Barry, a career crook who continues to be re-elected by stupid people. Barry has been caught with Drugs, Not paying taxes on $5 million he earned, and the list goes on, yet he walks a free man. Go Fiqure.

Siplin is not right in the head, seriously wrong in the head. But, go figure, look at his district.... If you need crack or a any other vice it's probably the place to go haha.

Ha! That's another one who should be arrested for misuse of public funds and trust.

The trouble is that the elected officials look after each other, just like the doctors and lawyers do.

Siplin was picked on because he called out a bunch of corrupt losers in office. Let the truth finally be known.

Hell Yeah!!! The only Politician to call for the arrest of con artist Orange County Sheriff Kevin Beary. It's obvious that this whole thing was a set up by Orange County Sheriff Kevin Beary and his buddy State Attorney Lawson Lamar!!!

What a Disgrace!! Florida.....the land of the "Good Ole Boy" Network. You can invest in Land that you're voting on, you can have people file unsigned or false "absentee ballots", and then get the Law changed while you are being indicted, you can promote "Homeland Security" for a Profit, and you can have people work on your campaign at the expense of the Citizens....All allegedly of course. No Wonder they all say they "Love America"....Crime pays them BIG!!

Well said.
Siplin also has opposed the commuter rail boondoggle and helped Ax the Tax defeat the Mobility 2020 plan - no wonder the boys downtown want him gone!
He's stood up the bad guys. Good for HIM!

You are a bigot, a moron, and you'd can't spell worth beans. Or else you are just incapable of learning, which would explain all three.
