CONDITIONS OF USE STATEMENT
Intro
ORS 181.592 authorizes the Oregon State Police to make information about registered sex offenders available to the public. ORS 181.592(4)(c) authorizes the release of information on certain sex offenders to be posted on a public web site.
This site is for information only. The Oregon State Police has not considered or assessed the specific risk that any convicted sex offender displayed on this web site will commit another offense or the nature of any future crimes that may be committed. The law mandates Oregon State Police provide information listing the name, address and descriptions of the offenders who MAY pose a risk to the community. This information is NOT a "Wanted Bulletin" and is intended for ADVISORY PURPOSES ONLY.
The Oregon State Police, Sex Offender Registration Unit, updates this information regarding convicted sex offenders regularly, making every effort at accuracy. However, this information can change quickly. You are cautioned that the address and some of the information provided is information provided by the registrant and may not reflect the current residence, status, or other information regarding an offender.
The information provided through this web site is an open record. It is your responsibility to make sure the records you access through this web site pertain to the person about whom you are seeking information. Extreme care should be exercised in using information obtained from this web site. Neither the Oregon State Police nor the State of Oregon shall be responsible for any errors or omissions produced by secondary dissemination of this data. Positive identification of a person believed to be a Predatory sex offender cannot be established unless a fingerprint comparison is made.
The information on this web site refers only to sex offenses defined under ORS 181.594 and may not reflect the entire criminal history of a particular individual.
Legal and Illegal Uses
Under the provisions of state law this information is provided for general public safety. A person is authorized to use this information only to protect him/herself or a child who may be at risk. The release of this information to the public is meant to assure public protection, not to punish the offender. It is illegal to use information obtained through this web site to commit a crime against a registered sex offender or to engage in discrimination or harassment against a registered sex offender. Anyone who uses this information to commit a criminal act against another person is subject to criminal prosecution and/or civil action.
NOTE:
Information is only provided for sex offenders who have been designated as Predatory, as provided in ORS 181.585, who have also been determined to present the highest risk of reoffending and to require the widest range of notification; or found to be a sexually violent dangerous offender under ORS 144.635.
Alleged violations of law by registrants under Oregon statutes should be reported to your local law enforcement agency. If you have knowledge that a registrant is not residing at the last reported residence listed on this web site, you are encouraged to call the "Information Contact" listed for that registrant.
