Are all sex offenders considered “Predatory”?
No. The Board of Parole and Post-Prison Supervision (for persons housed in state correctional facilities), Community Corrections (for persons on probation) and Oregon State Police (for persons convicted of certain sex crimes in other states moving into Oregon and persons who have never been on supervision) must make a finding of predatory, based on an assessment of the offender’s crimes and history. This assessment is based, in part, on previous history and the facts surrounding the sex offense conviction.
