2. (aggravated) This sex offender has been convicted of one sex crime. It was of a violent nature. Therefore
word aggravated is used. "Seventy-four percent of
children who are kidnapped and later found murdered are killed within
first 3 hours after being taken." Deborah J. Daniels, Assistant Attorney General and National AMBER Alert Coordinator.
3. ( All Others) These Sexual predators have been released from prison and/or paroled or both. They are not considered aggravated or habitual, these are
predators that roam our neighborhoods, parks, church and school activities undetected. They feel free to prey on our children, teens and even adults. Better than 85% of all sex offenders will strike again.
There are over 5,000 sex offenders residing and preying on young children in
State of Oklahoma. 60% are released from prison with no supervision. 11% of
5000 are in non-compliance of
law. Oklahoma, with its title 57 as a part of
state's statutes, has strict laws on
books in regards to sex offenders. It's a matter of : ENFORCEMENT-- REGISTRATION --IDENTIFICATION--AND NEIGHBORHOOD NOTIFICATION
Excerpts from Title 57 of
Oklahoma Constitution. The Legislature finds that sex offenders who commit other predatory acts against children and persons who prey on others as a result of mental illness pose a high risk of re-offending after release from custody. The Legislature further finds that
privacy interest of persons adjudicated guilty of these crimes is less important than
state's interest in public safety. The legislature additionally finds that a system of registration will permit law enforcement official to identify and alert
public when necessary for protecting public safety. STATE OF OKLAHOMA All sex offenders, as defined in 57 O.S. Supp. 1997, Section 582, have a duty to register with
local law enforcement authority having jurisdiction in
area where
person intends to reside or to stay for more than seven days in accordance with Oklahoma State Statute 57 O.S. Supp 1997, Section 583. If a sex offender changes address,
offender shall notify
appropriate agencies in writing no later than three days before
offender establishes residence or is temporarily domiciled at
new address. OUT OF STATE If
sex offender changes address to another state,
offender shall register
new address with
appropriate agencies in
new state not later than 10 days before
offender establishes residency or is temporarily domiciled in
new state, if
new state has a registration requirement. ___________________________________________________ If we save just one child's life or reduce
number of children that are being violated by predators this whole project will have been worthwhile. Don’t let sex offenders go unnoticed and unchallenged! For more information E-Mail: sexoffendersoklahoma@texoma-online.zzn.com
