Sex Offender Registry Information - Registration and Community Notification
In accordance with Megan's Law and The Jacob Wetterling Act, all 50 states
are required to register sex offenders and perform community notification.
However, each state differs in terms of how it administers its community notification
process, what offenders are required to register, the duration of registration,
what information is registered, how the information is shared, whether the public
has access to the registry, who is granted access, methods of access, what
information is shared - and that's just for starters.
Depending on the state, you may be able to obtain information from your state,
city or county online registry, police department, sheriff's office, phone
hotline or another agency in order to obtain information
on specific offenders, information on all offenders in the state or a
specific geographic location or you may be able to search the entire registry
or part of it on such criteria as an offense type, physical characteristics, name,
zip code and age.
