California Sex Offenders
California State Law
California for more than 50 years has required dangerous sex offenders to register with their local law enforcement agencies. However, information on the whereabouts of these sex offenders was not available to the public until the implementation of the Child Molester Identification Line in July 1995. The information available was further expanded by California's Megan's Law in 1996 (Chapter 908, Stats. of 1996).
You may access the information via the MEGAN'S LAW WEB APPLICATION for free at viewing stations located at certain law enforcement agencies. Please refer to our list of local sheriff's offices and police departments that offer public access to this application.
California State Sex Offender Registry
The California sex offender list can be accessed by city, ZIP Code, county or within a predetermined radius of a selected address, park, or school.
