BocaNewsNow.com

BocaNewsNow.com blends news, commentary, and a touch of humor to highlight significant events, issues, and insights that often escape the notice of newspapers in Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach, as well as TV stations that focus more on accidents and fires rather than the vibrant community of Boca Raton, which exists between two larger cities. This platform is a passion project managed part-time by Andrew Colton, an award-winning former network news correspondent. He is currently a leading litigation communication consultant for over 100 law firms in North America. BocaNewsNow.com is owned by Metro Desk Media, LLC, and operates independently of Colton’s legal consulting work. Since its inception in 2011, the site has garnered millions of page views. Although we accept paid advertisements, our operations do not rely on them. Accuracy is our top priority. If you notice any errors or have concerns about our information, please reach out to us at news (at) bocanewsnow.com. Important note: We do not publish mugshots for the purpose of charging fees for their removal. Arrest reports and booking images are considered public records under Florida law. We obtain our arrest information directly from law enforcement and are not required to delete such reports or photos, even if there is an expungement order. However, BocaNewsNow.com carefully evaluates all requests and will remove reports or images when deemed appropriate, at no cost. Remember, an arrest is a matter of public record, regardless of its validity — you wouldn’t want a wrongful arrest to go unnoticed.
