Justice sex offender Web site goes live
Joab Jackson writes in GCN.com:
The Justice Department has launched a Web site that allows the public to search for sex offenders in their communities. The National Sex Offender Public Registry, run by the Office of Justice Programs, can return a list of registered sex offenders through name, city, county or ZIP code searches.
The Web site, which went live late last month, is unusual in that all the basic data is not housed by Justice. Rather it resides on Web sites run by the participating states, according to Domingo Herraiz, director of the Bureau of Justice Assistance.
