Is there a sex offender living next to you?























 

 

 

 
The Purpose

This site serves as a focal point in providing assistance to parents, children, schools, and the community in identification of potential sex offenders in Southeast Nebraska and Northeast Kansas. Our goal is to raise public awareness about ways to help prevent child abduction, molestation and sexual exploitation.

 

The Sex Offender Levels

Under the law, sex offenders who reside in the community are classified by prosecutors in one of three "tiers" based on the degree of risk they pose to the public: 

High Risk  (Tier 3) 

Moderate Risk (Tier 2)
 

Low Risk (Tier 1)
.

All we can show on this site are High Risk or Tier 3 sexual offenders which are at high risk to offend again.  

Click on the counties on the left to find out if there are any sexual offenders living in your county.

The information on the county links is taken from the Nebraska and Kansas State Patrol websites. 


Nebraska Statute

Nebraska State Statute 29-4002 declares that sex offenders present a high risk to commit repeat offenses and that efforts of law enforcement agencies to protect their communities, conduct investigations, and quickly apprehend sex offenders are impaired by the lack of available information about individuals who have pleaded guilty to or have been found guilty of sex offenses and who live in their jurisdiction. Because of that, the legislature determined that state policy should assist efforts of local law enforcement agencies to protect their communities by requiring sex offenders to register with local law enforcement agencies as provided by the Sex Offender Registration Act.  This information is to be used to provide public notice and information about a registrant so a community can develop constructive plans to prepare themselves and their family.  Sex Offenders have "always" been in our communities.  The notification process will remove their ability to act secretly.  Sex offender registry information shall not be used to retaliate against the registrants, their families, or their employers in any way.  Vandalism, verbal or written threats of harm are illegal and will result in arrest and prosecution.


Kansas Statute

*note* criminals on the Kansas Links may not be sex offenders but have committed a violent crime that required registration.

The information contained in a registration entry has been provided by the registrant. Neither the Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) nor the sheriff’s office can guarantee the accuracy of this information. It is common for offenders to move and fail to notify the sheriff’s office in their county of residence of that change. This information is updated continuously, however, the KBI cannot guarantee accuracy from day to day.  As a result of the Kansas Supreme Court’s decision in State v. Myers, 260 Kan. 669 (1996), this website contains information only on offenders who committed their offenses on or after April 14, 1994.  Effective July 1, 2005, K.S.A. 22-4909 was amended to require prominent notice on this website as to whether a registered offender is or is not a sex offender. Any offender who by virtue of their registering offense meets the definition of “sex offender”, “sexually violent predator” or was convicted of criminal sexual conduct with a person less than 18 years of age, as set forth in K.S.A. 22-4902, shall be designated as a “sex offender” on this website.  Any person who uses information obtained through this website to threaten, intimidate or harass another, or who otherwise misuses the information may be subject to criminal prosecution and/or civil liability.  Further information on any registered offender in this file can be obtained from the sheriff’s office in the registrant’s county of residence.
