Police enthusiast and convicted sex offended Jeremy Dewitte was found not guilty on all charges on Thursday after a two-day trial in Osceola County, Florida.
The jury found that the state had not prove their claims that Dewitte violated his sex offender status by failing to register a website and new YouTube channel created by his girlfriend and featuring Dewitte.
It was a rare win for Dewitte, who remains incarcerated in Florida awaiting trial on multiple other charges, as the state seemed to be ill prepared to prove its case.
Since it is a Dewitte case, according to the Jeremy Dewitte NEWS – by PoliceTube’s Uncle YouTube channel, there was controversy. Dewitte was not allowed to present girlfriend Jennifer as a witness as Dewitte had contacted her the night before and coached her testimony.
The prosecution, who was monitoring Dewitte’s jail phone calls, provided the calls to the Judge with a motion to disqualify Jennifer as a witness. After hearing the calls, the judge had no choice but to rule Jennifer as an unreliable witness and bar her testimony.
However, the state errored when it showed a generic IP address from Jeremy Dewitte’s home that was associated with the registration of the website and YouTube address. The jury found that they did not present enough information to show that the IP address belonged to Dewitte.
Dewitte is still facing further charges in Osceola County, Orange County and has Federal tax charges pending.
