Sex offenders have always lived in our communities; but it wasn't until the passage of the sex and child offender registration act that the law enforcement even knew where they were living. In many cases, this information is now available to enhance public safety and protection.

We believe the only person who wins if this ends is the offender, since sex offenders derive their power through secrecy.
