LEVEL III OFFENDERS - NOTIFICATION OF RELEASE
The Kirkland Police Department is releasing the above information pursuant to RCW 4.24.550 and the Washington Supreme Court Decision in State v. Ward, which authorizes law enforcement agencies to inform the public of a sex offender’s release when such information will enhance public safety and protection. This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather, it is our belief that an informed public is a safer public.
These offenders have been convicted of a crime which requires registration with the sheriff’s office in their county of residence. Further, their previous criminal history places them in a classification level which reflects the potential to re-offend.
These offenders have served the sentences imposed on them by the courts, THEY ARE NOT WANTED BY THE POLICE AT THIS TIME.
The Kirkland Police Department has no legal authority to direct where sex offenders may or may not live. Unless court ordered restrictions exist, these offenders are constitutionally free to live wherever they choose. Sex offenders have always lived in our communities, but it was the Community Protection Act of 1990 that forced them to register, thus giving law enforcement the ability to track their whereabouts and collect information which in many cases can be shared with the community. Citizen abuse of this information to threaten, intimidate or harass sex offenders will not be tolerated. Such abuse could potentially end our ability to release this important information to the public.
The Kirkland Police Department is available to help you set up block watches, and provide you with useful information on personal safety. If you have information regarding current criminal activity of this or any other offender, please call 911.
