Arizona Revised Statutes Title 13 – Criminal Code §13-3821 requires persons convicted of sexual offenses as described in that code to register within 72 hours with the Sheriff of the county they reside in after their release or move to a new location.
The responsible law enforcement agency conducts a risk assessment of the offender’s likelihood to re-offend and assigns a risk level to the sex offender:
Arizona Revised Statutes Title 13 – Criminal Code §13-3826 establishes a Community Notification Guidelines Committee composed of:
This committee has established guidelines and monitors their implementation that provide levels of notification based on the risk that a particular offender poses to their community.
For Level 3 (high risk of re-offending) offenders and Level 2 (intermediate risk of re-offending) offenders, §13-3826 states the notification shall be made to:
The notification shall include a flyer with a photograph and exact address of the offender as well as a summary of the offender’s status and criminal background. A press release and a level three flyer shall be given to the local electronic and print media to enable information to be placed in a local publication.
The Eastern Arizona College Police Department will be placing Level 2 and 3 Sex Offender notifications on its website as part of the compliance with the above requirement when it is determined that a Level 2 or 3 sex offender is a student or employee of the College.
Additional sex offender information can be obtained on the Arizona Department of Public Safety Sex Offender website.
