Florida AG Demands House Impeach Judge Who Freed Convicted Pedophile, Allowing Him to Murder 5-Year-Old Stepdaughter Missy Mogle Just Weeks Later
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier is blasting the Florida House of Representatives for failing to impeach Leon Circuit Judge Tiffany Baker-Carper, more than a year after the judge released a convicted child sex offender on bond.
Judge Baker’s decision allowed the man to murder his 5-year-old stepdaughter just weeks later.
In a pointed post on X Tuesday, AG Uthmeier wrote:
“It’s been 385 days since Tallahassee Judge Tiffany Baker let a convicted sex offender walk out of the courtroom instead of into a prison cell, and he subsequently murdered 5-year-old Missy Mogle. The Florida House still hasn’t impeached Judge Baker. There’s no excuse.”
The pedophile, Daniel Spencer, was convicted in April 2025 of traveling to meet a minor for sex following an undercover sting operation.
Despite the State Attorney’s Office recommending he be held without bond pending sentencing, Judge Baker-Carper allowed Spencer to remain free, citing his lack of violent criminal history and prior compliance while on bond.
Weeks later, on May 19, 2025, Spencer and his wife, Chloe Spencer, allegedly beat and murdered 5-year-old Melissa “Missy” Mogle in their Tallahassee home.
According to court records and a grand jury indictment, Missy died from asphyxiation after being smothered and brutally beaten, with evidence showing her hands had been bound during the abuse. Disturbing surveillance video from inside the home allegedly captured hours of the abuse occurring in her own bedroom.
