Description:Nothing is more important than your safety, and the safety of those you love. One way you can increase your safety is by being aware of the people who live around you. The reality is that nearly all of us live near a registered sex offender, but few are aware of who these people are and where they live.
The WatchOut! program is a tool to help you stay safe by helping you be aware of these individuals in your community. This program is for parents, people who are planning to move to a new area, people who are dating and anyone else who is interested in knowing who is nearby in order to be safer.
The WatchOut! program allows you to:
- Know who is around you by searching for registered sex offenders by zip code
- Be sure an individual is not an offender by searching for their name in the database
- Find out where the highest concentrations of offenders live by plotting them on a map
- Tag selected individuals to access them quickly and easily
A few statistics published by the U.S. Department of Justice:
- An estimated 24% of those serving time for rape and 19% of those serving time for sexual assault had been on probation or parole at the time of the offense for which they were in State prison in 1991.
- Of the 9,691 male sex offenders released from prisons in 15 States in 1994, 5.3% were rearrested for a new sex crime within 3 years of release.
- Approximately 4,300 child molesters were released from prisons in 15 States in 1994. An estimated 3.3% of these 4,300 were rearrested for another sex crime against a child within 3 years of release from prison.
The offender database is updated regularly to capture those who just moved into your neighborhood.
Don’t get caught off guard. Watch Out!
