Desert Inn owner Dennis Devlin pleads guilty to child exploitation

Michael Ehman's mother, and sister have said, that the problem stems, from drug addiction & abuse, and that Ehman was himself a victim of Devlin's sick mind. It won't change anything in a court of law! Ehman's mother & sister are desparate to find a way to hide their shame! His mother has to take some respnsibility for his direction in life, but they pay too high of a price.

The question is - Who will take over the Desert Inn? Will it end up becoming just another of the abandoned properties that litter our beachside?

The Humphrey group in Sanford bought Holiday Inns & suites next to the Desert Inn, according to reports. One can only hope a plan for expansion is in order. They have announced to the media that there are plans to try! Given the seedy reputation of the Desert Inn which most likely will or has been seized by the city, I feel confident that the Humphrey Group will go ahead with that plan.

The desert inn is co owned and will stay the same unless fbi take it from him and his mother

Daytona certainly doesn't want another empty lot! It's only a matter of time before the city finds code violations or delinquent property tax issues. Land issues need to be resolved. The Desert Inn won't go away until they are.

im a past resident of DaB. I currently live in St.Louis Mo. We have the same kind of case with a person arrested by the name of Micheal Devlin. I wonder if there is any relation?

Does anyone remember this pos from the last time he was busted for the same charge? Only to be swept under the rug for lack of ???? Free pass to do it again...Wake up Daytona Boycott this shet hole and mabey it will go under and get paved into the sand ..We could always use a new park for kids not perves like this pos nuter him already.

Some of these comments are regarded as nuts: clueless: off topic. Not acting on the idea that Dolores Devlin [Dennis Devlin's mother] knew what was going on was a big mistake. The hotel for lack of a better word- brought a lot of business to Daytona because of spring break. Someone has to be protecting that property because it has serious financial issues. If it was seized by the city, no news was realeased. Yes the previous arrests were in 92-and again in 95. The Hilton is south Daytona was bought by humphrey. It was mentioned with other hotels that were saved in the Bray Gillespie fiasco.

the holiday inn sorry
