In April 2008, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and local Law Enforcement partners unveiled an exciting new addition to the State’s Sexual Offender and Predator Website; The Florida Offender Alert System. The system allows you to sign up to receive e-mail alert notifications when a registered Sexual Predator or Offender moves to your neighborhood or within a radius of any other designated address. FDLE encourages you to register your home address, as well as locations such as your child’s school, your workplace, and any locations that you and your family frequent. You can also opt to track address changes reported by specific registered Sexual Predators or Offenders.
You can monitor an unlimited number of addresses or Sexual Predators or offenders. There is no charge.
Please take a moment now to sign up at https://floridaoffenderalert.com. And please pass this E-mail on to friends and family and encourage them to take advantage of this valuable Community safety service.
