Child Molesters List: What Is It and Where To Find It?
What is a child molesters list? The United States requires law enforcement authorities to make registered sex offenders' information available to the public, otherwise known as a child molesters list, child molester registry, sex offender registry or sex offender list. Each state decides what information will be made public and how it should be accessed. Most states will include the sex offender's name, picture, address, incarceration date and the nature of the crime. Most states displayed the information on free public websites.
As you can see, a child molesters list is considered a public record and is 100% legal to obtain this information. However, it may be difficult to obtain the information depending on your state requirements. Also, there is no official nationwide government online registry.

What Makes It Hard To Obtain The Child Molesters List?
While some states maintain websites in order to provide instant access to the child molesters list, the search functionality of the website is limited. For example, you may only search by either zip code, county, street name or a person's name. In other states, you may need to go to your local police department with the name of the person that you are inquiring about and complete an information request form. Why Do You Believe The State Search Functionality For The Child Molesters List Is Limited?
I wanted to test my state website's information to that of a paid online service. I decided to start my search by zip code. After entering the zip code, it then asked for the street name and the results provided were just for my street. Now, of course, it is awesome to know if there are or aren't convicted sex offenders living on my street, but I also wanted information pertaining to the neighborhood. After all, most children walk around the block to friends' homes, or just walk around the area or take a spin around the neighborhood on a bike.To gather additional information about the neighborhood, I now needed to search by county. This search provided a great deal of information. But to obtain more detail information, such as the sex offender's picture and offense, I have to click on each of the individual names. And to add insult to injury, most convicted persons have aliases names resulting in more items to click. This was a lot of research and time consuming. I now think you can understand what I mean by "limited functionality". But, as I mentioned earlier, each state has different requirements for its child molester list and each states' website may differ as well.
