California sex offender reports!
Sex offenders are living in your neighborhood and you don’t even know it. When a person is convicted of a sex offense they are put into a state database depending on the extent and exact nature of their crime. Remember, this will vary from state to state. It is important that you check your state’s sex offender database so that you know where the sex offenders near you live. If you are in California then you can check in California sex offender reports. The purpose behind these databases is so that the citizens can be made aware of the presence of these offenders living in their neighborhoods.
Once you check the database you will most likely see that there is a registered sex offender living near you. You may be asking “what do I do now that I have found that a sex offender lives near me and my family” Let me tell you what I did when I checked the database. I live in Florida and I found the state sex offender registry here, and I found it very easy to use. I simply input my address and tell the system that I want to run a check of offenders living within 3 miles of my home.
I hit the search button and when the page refreshes it tells me that there are 41 registered sex offenders living within 3 miles of my home. It also allows me to click a button and it will bring up a map showing where these offenders live. Nice little tool. I was very surprised that there are 41 sex offenders living near my home. I live in a deed restricted neighborhood with lots of children running and playing at all times of the day and night.

Many people say sex offenders cannot be rehabilitated. However, the Texas State Auditor in 2007 released a report showing that sex offenders who completed the Texas Sex Offender Treatment Program (SOTP) were 61% LESS LIKELY to commit a new crime. (See “An Audit Report on Selected Rehabilitation Programs at the Department of Criminal Justice.” Texas State Auditor. March 2007. Report No. 07-026. Retrieved Oct 20, 2009. http://www.sao.state.tx.us/reports/main/07-026.html.)
In 2002, US Dept. of Justice reported only 5% of sex offenders released in 1994 returned to prison for a new sex crime. (See “US Dept of Justice Report on Sex Offender Recidivism” http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/pub/pdf/rsorp94.pdf)
