Domestic Violence
Domestic Violence is a pattern of coercive
behavior used to maintain power and control in
a relationship. This abuse can be physical, sexual,
or emotional. Besides relatives, a "relationship"
can include anyone you currently live with, have
lived within the past, or anyone you are or used
to be intimately involved with. To get more information

Program was created as a part of the Prosecutor's

Sex Offender Registry information
The West Virginia State Police releases the following
information pursuant to state law §15-12-5
which authorizes the State Police to inform the
public of a sex offender's release when the offender
is a sexually violent offender, the offender has
multiple convictions of a sexual offense, the
offender's victim was a minor or if the offender
has been determined to be a sexually violent predator.
These sex offenders have served the sentence imposed
by the courts and have advised the state police
that they will be living in the location indicated.
THESE PERSONS ARE NOT WANTED BY THE POLICE AT
THIS TIME. THIS NOTIFICATION IS NOT INTENDED TO
INCREASE FEAR; RATHER, IT IS OUR BELIEF THAT AN
INFORMED PUBLIC IS A SAFER PUBLIC.
Law enforcement has no legal authority to direct
where a sex offender may or may not live. Unless
court ordered restrictions exist, these offenders
are constitutionally free to live wherever he/she
chooses.
Sex offenders have always lived in our communities;
but it wasn't until passage of the Sex Offender
Registration law that law enforcement even knew
where they were living. In many cases, law enforcement
is now able to share that information with you.
Citizen abuse of this information to threaten,
intimidate, or harass registered sex offenders
will not be tolerated. Further, such abuse could
potentially end law enforcement's ability to provide
community notifications. We believe the only person
who wins if community notification ends is the
sex offender, since sex offenders derive their
power through secrecy.
If you have information regarding current criminal
activity of any offender, please call your local
law enforcement agency
