Kasischke v. State,

No. SC07-128 (Fla., July 10, 2008):  1. Conditions of Probation; 2. Rule of Lenity:  A Florida statute requires a judge to impose conditions of probation on sex offenders.  The question is whether such a probationer is prohibited from possessing all pornographic material or only such material relevant to the deviant behavior of the offender.  HELD:  Because the statute is ambiguous, Kasischke is entitled to the rule of lenity and thus is only prohibited from possessing porn related to his deviant behavior.
