Responsibilities
California laws require certain people residing within the State to register with the nearest law enforcement jurisdiction. This should be done at least on an annual basis. Investigations are initiated into those individuals who are out of compliance, and such investigations can lead to criminal prosecution.
According to Megan’s Law, citizens within any neighborhood are entitled to be informed immediately when a person identified as a violent predator is to move nearby.
