Sex Offender

 

The Sex Offender Registry Board is presently in the process of classifying registered sex offenders. The SORB classifies offenders at three (3) levels;

    Level 1- Low risk to re-offend and degree of dangerousness.

    Level 2- Moderate risk to re-offend and degree of dangerousness.

    Level 3- High risk to re-offend and degree of dangerousness.

The law only permits the public to receive information on sex offenders required to register and finally classified by the SORB as a Level 2 (moderate risk), or a Level 3 (high risk) offender. Therefore, information is not available to the public if the sex offender is a Level 1 offender, or has not yet been classified by the Board.

In addition to being subject to requests for information at the SORB and Police Departments, Level 3 offenders are subject to "community notification", which must include:

    Local newspaper publications and/or announcements on cable TV; AND

    Posting bulletins in public buildings; AND

    Notification to all schools in the community

    The community notification must occur where the offender lives, works and

    Where the offence took place.

If there are any questions concerning any aspect of the Sex Offender Registry Law, or the obtaining of offender information please email Lt. Patrick Swanick  or telephone (508-358-4721) or click below to go to the Mass. State Sex Offender Register Board.
