The U.S. Marshal Service recently led an operation in Nebraska to determine whether sex offenders are complying within the required regulations.
The 2006 Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act requires that those found guilty of sexual misconduct must keep current registration in their residence, workplace or school, with the U.S. Marshal Service, the agency watching for violations of the act.
The task force checked in with about 300 sex offenders across the state, finding four to be noncompliant, while arresting one.
Criminal investigations have begun on those found to be noncompliant.
"Our efforts today reflect the U.S. Marshal's commitment to keeping our communities safe," said Scott Kracl, U.S. Marshal for the District of Nebraska, in a written statement.
