I know an offender who was convicted of a sex offense but his/her name is not on the list. Why dont I see it?
There are several reasons an offender is not on a registration list or is not currently registered. • If the offender is considered a level I sex offender, no community notification is provided. Level I sex offenders are not posted on the internet and flyers are not distributed. • In some cases sex offenders are relieved of the duty to register by a court. • Once an offender has successfully completed the registration period (10 years for class C felonies and Gross Misdemeanors and 15 years for class B felonies) they can be relived of the duty to register. The offender must request to be relieved of the duty to register and must have been conviction free from all crimes during the entire registration period. • The offender does not qualify for registration under RCW 9A.44.130. • The offender was convicted of an offense that does not require or allow for registration in Washington. • The offender may be in violation. If you believe this to be the case please contact the law enforcement
