LEE COUNTY, Fla. — The Lee County Sheriff's Office (LCSO) stated that a python, initially rescued by a deputy from a pool deck, has now been adopted by another deputy.

Last weekend, on July 5, the LCSO reported that a deputy responded to a call about a python on a Leigh Acres resident's pool deck.

The deputy removed the snake from the pool deck without incident, according to deputies.

The next day, on July 9, the LCSO announced that the rescued snake had been adopted and rehomed by an LCSO sergeant from their Animal Cruelty Task Force.

“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”

South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
