Sex Offenders have always lived in our communities; but it was not until the WI Sex Offender Registry and Community Notification Law was enacted that law enforcement was able to share this information with the community.
The WI Sex Offender Registry can be located at www.widocoffenders.org.
Law enforcement wants to remind everyone that abuse of this information to threaten, intimidate, or harass registered sex offenders will not be tolerated.
