Community Placement How is the public notified when a sex offender moves into the neighborhood?
Community law enforcement officials are notified whenever a sex offender is moving into their area and all sex offenders are required to register with local law enforcement within seven (7) days of release from prison; sexually violent predators are required to register within 72 hours of release. Also, neighborhood associations are free to request information from their local law enforcement agencies about any registered sex offenders moving into the neighborhood (IC 11-8-2-12.4).
