Civil rights attorneys argue Florida’s ‘Halo Law’ is unconstitutional

Anita Gibson and Jasmine Jefferson became the first two people in Jacksonville to be charged with a second-degree misdemeanor under the law, which requires a 25-foot buffer zone for all first responders, including law enforcement, while they are performing their jobs.
