INCIDENT: Penal Code Section 290 Compliance Check
LOCATION: City of Yucaipa and Surrounding Unincorporated County Areas
SUMMARY: On April 12, 2025, deputies from the Yucaipa Sheriff Station conducted a Penal Code Section 290 compliance check. Under Penal Code 290, California law requires people convicted of certain sex crimes and sexually motivated crimes to register as sex offenders. This means registering with their local law enforcement agency annually, within five days of their birthday, and within five days of moving to a new residence. Compliance checks are utilized to confirm a registrant is complying with state law.
Deputies attempted to contact 107 registrants in Yucaipa and 14 registrants in the surrounding unincorporated county area. Deputies contacted 88 registrants and found them to be in compliance. Deputies discovered six registrants had moved from their registered residences and may be in violation. Additional follow-up is needed to confirm any violation and subsequent issuance of arrest warrants.
Yucaipa deputies will be conducting an additional 290 Compliance check in the future.
Anyone with information regarding an out of compliance 290 Registrant is urged to contact Detective Andrade or Deputy Perez of the Yucaipa Station at (909) 918-2305 or make a report with the Yucaipa Sheriff's Station. Callers wishing to remain anonymous are urged to call the We-Tip Hotline at 1-800-78-CRIME (27463), or you may leave information on the We-Tip Hotline at www.wetip.com
