Once you have read and acknowledged the disclaimer on the next page,
you may search the database by a sex offender's specific name, obtain
ZIP Code and city/county listings, obtain detailed personal profile
information on each registrant, and use our map application to search
your neighborhood or anywhere throughout the state to determine the
specific location of any of those registrants on whom the law allows us
to display a home address.

Marsy's Law
California's Marsy's Law confers certain rights to victims of violent
crime, which ensures that they must by law be treated with respect and
dignity by the criminal justice system. Courts must consider the safety
of victims and families when setting bail and release conditions. And
family members have legal standing in bail hearings, pleas, sentencing,
and parole hearings. Learn more specifics about
Marsy's Law.
