Statement: “San Diego County has the highest percentage of knowing where the sex registrants are of anywhere in California. I think it’s something like 98 percent of all the registered sex offenders are known and tracked regularly. There’s some counties where that’s 50 percent or 60 percent. So we’re doing a good job here,” Sheriff Bill Gore said during a public safety panel June 22.
Analysis: State law requires that registered sex offenders keep updated contact information with their local law enforcement agency and of course, the agencies are supposed to periodically make sure it’s accurate.
