| Narrative: |
On Saturday, January 25, 2020, Sheriff’s detectives conducted compliance checks at the residences of thirty-five (35) registered sex offenders throughout the City of Ojai and the surrounding unincorporated areas. The compliance checks were funded through the Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement (SAFE / ELEAS) program.
Thirty-Four (34) of the sex registrants were confirmed to be in compliance with their registration requirements. One (1) registrant was not contacted because he was either not home or had moved. Sheriff’s detectives will follow-up to determine if the sole registrant not contacted was out-of-compliance.
The Sheriff’s office aggressively pursues prosecution of those sex registrants who fail to comply with their registration requirements. Detectives will be conducting similar sweeps on an ongoing basis to verify the registered sex offenders in our community are living at their reported residences and remain in compliance with any probation or parole terms.
Residents of Ventura County can visit the Megan’s Law website (www.meganslaw.ca.gov) to familiarize themselves with the sex registrants in their community.
