TYPE IN THE ZIP CODE TO FIND A SEX OFFENDER IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
You will be amazed with how many are living in your area, so please be aware.
Just click the link at the bottom and type ONLY your ZIP code.
As you will see from a recent story on FR, this criminal check does not take into consideration those void of CITIZENSHIP - Illegals.
Some Long Island , Suffolk County, NY Zips when searched may not show many offenders on record; but the above linked story in Newsday run a few days ago show that it was not because these idyllic towns were free of such predators.
Cut from the Newsday report: March 30, 2005 - "The Suffolk County raids were the third time federal agents and local officers joined forces in Nassau to arrest immigrants who should have begun deportation proceedings after their prison sentences but somehow fell through the cracks.
Laura Ahearn, of Parents for Megan's Law, praised the operation but wondered why it took so long for officials to amend the system's flaws.
"Twenty-five were rounded up in Tuesday's sweep and taken to a federal detention facility. A similar sweep early this month (March) in Suffolk netted 27 sex offenders who officials said were here illegally. All are being held for deportation hearings."
Nadia Marin Molina, executive director of the Workplace Project in Hempstead, said the highly publicized sweep signals a trend in which the federal government deals with immigration problems through enforcement, rather than policy change.
"The only connection we see is immigrants and crime, gang members and immigrants," she said. "If people are eligible for deportation for serious crimes they should have been deported anyway."
Federal and local officers have so far caught 5,300 sexual predators since Operation Predator, a nationwide initiative to arrest and deport sex offenders who also are illegal immigrants, was launched in July 2003.
You have to keep checking it-----some the ones near me are different than they were 6 months ago.
Looks like 2. Amazing.
This must not be very accurate. I typed mine in and no results came up when there should be quite a few. I think it would be more accurate to go to your local county sheriff web site for better results.
What does it mean if somebody is listed multiple times?
Oh gawd. I've got 10. 6 are Mexican.
I think they should put their mug shots on there as well.

I found several near me that the posted site doesn't have.
I tested it for myself. I had one with a background of similar arrests. Others tested it today as well bringing up many offenders. Zips in parts of Chicagoland burbs brought over 50. California also had some higher counts.
Perhaps yours are not on record?
I did the Test with several others in different parts of the country before I posted.
Thankfully, none. Our area isn't KNOWN for sex offenders.
(Doesn't mean they ain't there, though.)
OMG I jsut found one on Ft. Riley that's right around the corner from my house.
I called my wife and let her know.
SHe's there by herself with our 4 kids. All we need is to have a monster like that lurking around the playgrounds on Ft. Riley.
I think as many of these links as we can find will help those that want to see just who is living near them and their family.
But has I posted above, we will never know the extent of illegals that are sex offenders..undocumented! Will they be deported just to return again?
I don't know, but the one I had showed 2 arrests for the same type of crime.

Reposted your ALABAMA link for an easy hit.
17 here for me. But since it's done by Zip, there were a few taht were not THAT close.
A guy that raped a 13 year old lives around the corner from me. That's just great.
Zip Code search is NOT available for the following States: Oklahoma, Nebraska, New Jersey, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
What are the other 4?
