Got a letter in our mailbox yesterday about a Level 2 Sex Offender living in the area

Why does it come from the Superintendent of Schools?

I was just surprised that the letter is so geared towards the *safety of the children* as opposed to the safety of the community since it doesn't specify the individual is a pedophile (or is that assumed since it is coming from the school district?).

Does he do his business in other people's driveways????

I don't think they're allowed to distinguish because the offender does have rights - although if you look up Level 2 sex offender it might give some details

I did look it up & from what I could tell the levels were associated with the RISK level, not the prior acts ...

Can you look up his address and get the dog to poop on his yard? That'll show him!

Part of assigning a risk level is number of offenses! and Multiple convictions

Re: Got a letter in our mailbox yesterday about a Level 2 Sex Offender living in the area

I get them regularly - they always come from the superintendent of schools - - I think it's part of Meagan's Law (or some other legislation). I know the sex offenders have to "register" when they move - - and from there the schools notify the local community since the "could" be a danger (based on past behavior).

I don't know the details, but that's my very simple understanding of it. I just hate to see that I get them like 2 or 3 times a year.

You must live in the same town as our apartment, b/c I got the same letter yesterday also. We're moving soon anyway, so I'm not that worried...but I did find it rather disturbing.

Re: Got a letter in our mailbox yesterday about a Level 2 Sex Offender living in the area

Hey, I have one living around the corner from me!! I have seen him on the website. It says he is from another town though so I don't know if he has registered with our town yet. The cops WERE there the other day though. I was hoping they were taking him away, but they weren't. I have 2 kids and the victim was a 6 year old girl!!!!!!

Schools are mandated to inform the community.

Actually, due the expense of postage... one school district was spending over $30,000 a year (it may have been Sachem or Smithtown, one of the larger districts) on those notices alone, many have now resorted to e-mailing the community members.

FIL's got one too, which upsets me because FH has a young brother and sister.

It was probably Sachem. That was probably part of the 18% tax hike they wanted to give us!!
