Registered Sex Offender Lists
In accordance with the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 (42 U.S.C 16921) and the Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act of 2000 (CSCPA), which amends the Jacob Wetterling Crimes Against Children and Sexually Violent Offender Registration Act, the Jeanne Clery Act, and the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA), the UPD provides a link on its web page to the Texas Department of Public Safety Sex Offender Registry. This act requires institutions of higher education to issue a statement advising the campus community where law enforcement information is provided by a state concerning registered sex offenders may be obtained. It also requires sex offenders already required to register with a State to provide notice of each institution of higher education in that state at which the person is employed, carries a vocation, or is a student. In the State of Texas, convicted sex offenders must register with the local law enforcement authority in which the offender resides. This information is maintained by the Texas Department of Public Safety.
The Texas Department of Public Safety Sex Offender Registry is available via internet, pursuant to Section 62.005, Texas Penal Code. Registry information provided under this section shall be used for the administration of criminal justice, screening of current or prospective employees, volunteers, or otherwise for the protection of the public in general and children in particular. A list of all registered sex offenders in Texas is available from the Texas Department of Public Safety at: https://publicsite.dps.texas.gov/SexOffenderRegistry To narrow search for Tarleton area on state data base, use Erath County or zip code 76402.
The CSCPA further amends (FERPA) to clarify that nothing in the Act can prohibit an educational institution from disclosing information provided to the institution concerning registered sex offenders. This statement is provided in compliance with the Campus Sex Crimes Act of 2000 and the Sex Offender Registration Program, Chapter 62, Texas Penal Code, effective date September 1, 2005.
