By law, sex offenders cannot be anonymous and residents in any community can search the registry and see how closely in proximity a registered sex offender lives to them.

Registered sex offenders are assigned a risk by judge after a court hearing:

• Level 1 (low risk of re-offense)
• Level 2 (medium risk of re-offense)
• Level 3 (high risk of re-offense).

By law, only Level 2 and Level 3 sex offenders are included in this online directory.

The registry contains a lot of information including, photos of the offender, names and/or aliases, home/work addresses and convictions that require registration (if necessary).
