Sex Offender
Registry
|
|
The Kentucky State Police provides sex/criminal offender registration information to the public through their website. The intent of the site is public safety and awareness. Their database is made available to alert possible victims of potential danger, not to punish or embarrass offenders.
Convicted sex/criminal offenders have always lived in our communities, only in recent years have laws been passed which have required these offenders to register with authorities. Unfortunately, many convicted offenders do re-offend. There is an overriding public interest and need to ensure the safety of the public by providing registered offender information. It is important to note that not all criminal offenses require registration with the state police, only those covered by the statute.
