This publication has been reporting on the arrest and criminal prosecution of Dana Delaney Loyd since her August 2015 arrest by the Brevard County Sheriff's Office. We have posted over thirty (30) articles on this matter of public interest. Our initial interest in Loyd's arrest was connected to her status as the chief editor of the web publication - BrevardsBestNews.Com (BBN)*. BBN had been extremely critical of Brevard's law enforcement community regarding their failure to properly investigate allegations of pedophilia and child abuse. Loyd's most disturbing published concerns surrounded allegations voiced by a mother, supported by a North Carolina criminal investigation, alleging that a then local (Brevard) father was sexually abusing his pre-teen daughter **. While this publication holds no OPINION regarding the allegations against the father, we do support that local officials failed to properly address and investigate these sexual misconduct allegations. Further, we suspect that local officials actually realize that their efforts were sub-standard - and now desires to silence anyone that cares to expose their failures, including this publication, Loyd, and the subject child's mother. |
Brevard Judge Robin Lemonidis Bans VolusiaExposed.Com's Camera From The Courtroom As is outlined within our October 21, 2018 article VolusiaExposed.Com resecured our courtroom camera access. |

Within our earlier articles, this publication has forwarded the OPINION that Loyd is a de facto political prisoner of the 18th Judicial Circuit. Her prisoner status has had the desired effect of silencing her from voicing her OPINION - that several Brevard County law enforcement agencies failed to properly receipt, and investigate allegations of child sexual abuse.
Loyd's Court ordered silence *** insulates these public agencies, to include the Court itself, from public review and criticism of how they failed to properly investigate allegations of sexual misconduct against a child. Interestingly, the subject mother in the child custody case is also under a similar Court ordered gag order restricting her from voicing her concerns about the subject father. Both Judges Assigned To The Loyd Case Have Made PRE-TRIAL Statements Supporting Loyd's Guilt Judge Robin Lemonidis was assigned to the Loyd case shortly after Loyd's (August 2015) arrest. Loyd was arrested under the charge of filing a false abuse report with the Florida Abuse Hotline. Loyd reported the alleged abuse regarding the subject child - some of which was supported within the before mentioned North Carolina law enforcement investigation. Unfortunately, by the middle of 2016 it became clear that Judge Lemonidis had developed some judicial biases against both Loyd and her trial attorney (Loyd currently has a different attorney).
On April 27, 2018 - 18th Judicial Circuit Chief Judge John Harris reassigned the Loyd case to...... wait for it ............. JUDGE MORGAN REINMAN. How did Judge Lemonidis know to send Judge Reinman a copy of her recusal? Doesn't it appear that Lemonidis already knew who her replacement was going to be? Next, why did Chief Judge John Harris pick Judge Reinman to replace Judge Lemonidis? Well, maybe it has to do with something that both Judge Lemonidis and Judge Reinman have in common? This publication forwards the OPINION that Judge Lemonidis and Judge Reinman do share something in common with each other - they both have made pre-trial, on the record statements - regarding Loyd's alleged guilt. As covered in our May 5, 2018 article - Judge Reinman was the then assigned judge within the subject mother's & father's child custody case. Within a January 8, 2016 order (an important read) - Judge Reinman stated that Loyd had made "unfounded allegations" against the subject father. It should be noted that these judicial statements were made over a year prior to Loyd's criminal trial / conviction of making a false call to the Florida Abuse Hotline. So, what is significant about the above paragraphs? Well, this publication forwards the OBSERVATION & OPINION - that in 2016 - documentary and video evidence clearly supports that both Judge Lemonidis and Judge Reinman had already concluded Loyd's guilt - a year prior to Loyd's 2017 trial, or jury verdict. This, in our OPINION, verifies that both judges have judicial biases against Loyd that should have required both judges to recuse themselves from the Loyd case. But wait - there is more - we are also of the OPINION that both Judge Reinman and Judge Lemonidis made pre-trial on the record statements indicating their judicial belief that Loyd's alleged victim was innocent of the allegations assigned to him by his former spouse (subject mother) - and then by Loyd **. The COURT supports the innocence of Loyd's victim to such a degree - that within the child custody case - it has been COURT ORDERED that pending the subject mother recanting her sexual misconduct allegations against the subject father - the subject mother's visitation rights with the child are restricted (see paragraphs one (1) & two (2) of Judge Reinman's January 8, 2016 order). Frankly, we find it EXTREMELY significant - but apparently the COURT does not see the significance - that two 18th Judicial Circuit judges having 2016 documented positions regarding Loyd's pre-trial guilt, and of Loyd's victim's innocence - are the very same judges that have been attached to Loyd's criminal prosecution? With that thought in mind - let's cautiously proceed forward. Last July (2018) - Loyd's new attorney filed two motions requesting that Judge Reinman recuse herself from Loyd's case. Loyd has a pending violation of probation hearing (read our January 5, 2018 article), as well her right to file for post conviction relief. Given all this, Judge Reinman quickly denied both motions to recuse herself (see below web links).
So, Why hasn't Judge Reinman recognized that she has a judicial conflict of interest in the Loyd case? Could it be that Judge Lemonidis and Judge Reinman are effectively tag teaming Loyd - the goal being - to insure that Loyd was criminally convicted, effectively silenced, and then denied her right to a post conviction appeal? Honestly, this publication suspects that Loyd has been, and is still being denied her U.S. Constitutional protected due process rights. |

While Judge Reinman, for whatever reasons, refused to recuse herself last July and August (2018) - Court Administrative Order 18-33-B AMENDED (A.O. 18-33-B) dated December 4th, 2018 called for the mass rotation of court cases to other judges within the judicial circuit.
These administrative orders authorizing judicial rotations are not unusual, in fact they are fairly routine. According to A.O. 18-33-B - all cases whereas the defendant's last name started with an "L" would be, as of January 1, 2019 rotated to Judge Lisa Davidson. Therefore, Loyd's case should have been reassigned from Judge Reinman to Judge Davidson. According to the Clerk of the Court's website, Loyd's case rotation to Judge Davidson's docket did transpire on January 1, 2019. |
Email From The Clerk Of Court To VolusiaExposed.Com

However, this publication has secured an January 8, 2019 email thread between Judge Reinman and the Clerk's Office, whereas Reinman requested that the Loyd's case be reassigned back to her docket.
Judge Reinman's rationale for having the case reassigned back to her - was the fact that the case was assigned to her in April 2018 when Judge Lemonidis self recused herself. According to a recently received email from the Clerk's Office (see upper right of page) the Clerk confirms that the Loyd case was reassigned to Judge Reinman per her request - based solely on her (Reinman) rationale that she should keep the case because it was assigned to her In April 2018. However, per our read of A.O. 18-33-B - with particular attention given to section C (10) - circuit judges can only "transfer or adjust particular case assignments in the interest of justice and judicial economy". We could easily imagine that both Judge Reinman and Judge Lemonidis may prefer that A.O. 18-33-B had a provision in it that stated something like - "circuit judges can transfer or adjust particular case assignments should they have a particular personal / professional interest and or bias in the case - and if such a transfer would assist them in covering their own asses regarding any possible / probable judicial misconduct within said case(s)". In fairness to both Judge Reinman and Judge Lemonidis, as well as the judicial circuit as a whole - this publication sent an January 14, 2019 email to both the judicial circuit's public information officer (Michelle Kennedy) and the circuit's Chief Judge Tonya Rainwater. Within our email, we requested an explanation of how Judge Reinman's request to the Clerk, to have Loyd's case put back on to her (Reinman) docket - forwarded either the "interest of Justice" or "judicial economy"? As of the publication of this article - VolusiaExposed.Com has received no response to our email. While the Court and other members of the judicial circuit seek shelter within their silence - Florida Judicial Canons provide the public with loud and strong guidance of when a judge must recuse himself or herself. In the particular - Florida Judicial Canon 3E states a judge "shall disqualify himself or herself in a proceeding in which the judge's impartiality might reasonably be questioned....". We (VolusiaExposed.Com) leave it to you, our readers. Based on the above - has VolusiaExposed.Com presented reasonable concerns regarding both Judge Lemonidis' and Judge Reinman's lack of impartiality in the Loyd prosecution? ....and there you have it... Loyd has a pending violation of probation hearing in February....therefore, stand by to stand by...there is surely more to come of this.....need to know more before then.... might we suggest that you read our earlier articles regarding Loyd.....yeah, that's the ticket... |
