Accuracy of the Information Contained in this Web Site
Although the individuals listed on the sex offender Internet registry are initially identified through fingerprinting and photograph submission to the Division of State Police, it should be understood that positive identification of any individual whose registration record has been made available on the Sex Offender Internet registry can be verified only through the review of a properly executed fingerprint card. By placing this information on the Internet, no representation is being made that the listed individual will commit any specific crime in the future, nor is any representation being made that if the individual commits an offense, that one of the listed offenses will be the offense committed. AIB will not be held liable for the omission of any convicted sex offender that is not registered to a particular state. AIB is dedicated to providing parents and guardians with the latest information on registered sex offenders.
The registry is not a complete and comprehensive listing of every person who has ever committed any sex offense in United States, nor does it make information about every sex offender living in a particular state available on the Internet. In accordance with U.S. law, individuals who have been convicted, adjudicated delinquent or found not guilty by reason of insanity for a sex offense must register under Megan's Law. Individual registrants are then assessed to determine whether they pose a relatively low, moderate or high risk of re-offense, based on application of elements such as the characteristics of the sex offense or offenses they committed, their offense history and other criteria such as response to treatment and community support. Under Federal law, before community notification takes place, offenders receive a final classification order from the court following the opportunity for a hearing.
The Division of State Police, working in conjunction with the "Megan's Law" Units in each County Prosecutor's Office, verifies and updates this information regularly, to try to assure that it is complete and correct. Although efforts have been made to ensure the information is as accurate as possible, no guarantee is made or implied. The information may also be subject to change and re-verification. You are cautioned that information provided on this site may not reflect the current residence, status or other information regarding an offender. If you believe that any of the information found in these records is in error, please contact the Division of State Police, in your state or the prosecutor in the county where the offender resides.
Prohibitions on Misuse of Registry Information
Consistent with this public safety purpose of Megan's Law, the Internet registry law expressly prohibits the use of registry information for the purpose of applying for, obtaining, or denying health insurance, insurance, loans, credit, education, scholarships or fellowships, benefits privileges or services provided by any business establishment (unless for a purpose consistent with the enhancement of public safety), or housing or accommodations. The law also makes it a crime, punishable by a term of imprisonment between three and five years and a fine of up to $15,000 (depending on the State), to use registry information to commit a criminal offense, and makes it a disorderly persons offense, punishable by a fine of up to $1,000 (varying by State), to use registry information to commit any disorderly persons or petty disorderly persons offense. These charges would be in addition to any charges related to the underlying criminal act committed.
