Location of Law Enforcement Agency Information Regarding Registered Sex Offenders

The Federal Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act, effective October 28, 2002, requires institutions of higher education to issue a statement advising the campus community where law enforcement agency information provided by a state regarding registered sex offenders may be obtained. It also requires sex offenders already required to register in a state to provide notice of each institution of higher education in that state at which the person is employed, carries on a vocation, or is a student.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension administers a predatory offender registration and tracking program. Information regarding this program can be found at the following website: http://www.dps.state.mn.us/bca/invest/documents/page-07.html.

Any questions regarding the program may be directed to the Criminal Assessment Program at 1-888-234-1248 or 651-793-7070.

Information regarding registered sex offenders may be obtained through the Minneapolis Police Department (MPD). The MPD may be contacted at 612-673-2817. General information on registration requirements and notification procedures can be found at the following website: http://www.dps.state.mn.us/bca/bca.html.

In addition, information regarding registered sex offenders may be obtained through the Minnesota Department of Corrections at 651-642-0200. An offender locator, for offenders that have the highest risk for re-offence, can be accessed from the Minnesota Department of Corrections website: http://www.doc.state.mn.us/.
