The individual who appears on this notification has been convicted of a sex offense that requires registration with the Sheriff's Office in the count)' of their residence. Further, their previous criminal history places th¢~ in a c~msificafiou level which refl~ts the putentlal to re-offend. This sex offender has se~ed the sentence imposed on him by the courts and has advised the Mason County Shuriff's Office that he vail he living in the location below. HE IS NOT WANTED BY THE POLICE AT Tills TIMIg. Tills NOTIFICATION IS NOT INTENDED TO INCREASE FEAR. RATHER, IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT AN INFORMED PUBLIC IS A SAFER PUBLIC. The Mason County SherifPs Office has no legal ambority to direct where a sex offender may or may not live. Unless court ordered restrictions exist, this offender is coestitutiunully free to live wherever he chooses. Sex offenders have always lived in our communities, but it wasn't until passage of the Community Prot~'tiou Act of 1990 (which mandates sex off~nde~ registration) that law enforcement even knew where they were living. In many cases, law entbrcement is now able to share that information with you. Citizm abttse of this infommtiun to threaten, intimidate or harass rngistered .sex oI~det~ till uot be tolerated. Further, such abuse could putentielly end law en foreement's ability to do community notifieatinns. We believe the only person who wins if community no~ificalien ends is the sex offender, since sex offenders derive their power through secrecy.
