Pennsylvania Sex Offenders List

Public access to the Pennsylvania Sex Offenders List is the result of several acts passed by Congress, which require states - like Pennsylvania - to release relevant information about registered sex offenders to protect the public.

Pennsylvania Registry

Each state differs in terms of how it administers its community notification process. The Pennsylvania sex offenders registry IS accessible on-line via the following link:

Pennsylvania State Police

Pennsylvania Sex Offenders List Excerpt: "Pursuant to the provisions of Pennsylvania's Megan's Law, the State Police has established this web page to provide timely information to the public on Sexually Violent Predators residing in the Commonwealth. BE ADVISED that not all sex offenders are classified as sexually violent predators. Sexually violent predators are sex offenders, convicted on or after July 8, 2000, who have been determined by the Court, after evaluation by the Sexual Offenders Assessment Board (SOAB), to possess a mental abnormality or personality disorder that makes the individual likely to engage in predatory sexually violent behaviors. Information on this specific class of sex offenders is available to the public for notification purposes."

Other Registries

Although you can get registered sex offender information directly from a State Sex Offenders List like that of Pennsylvania, in fact, from almost all state government web sites, you'll probably find it easier to do a free search or a full search of several other sex offender registries.
