Over 40 law enforcement officers came together this week to perform a citywide audit of registered sexual offenders in Chula Vista.
Detectives from the Chula Vista Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division conducted the audit, along with members of the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the U.S. Marshals Service, including the San Diego Fugitive Task Force.
California categorizes offenders into three tiers based upon their risk level. Tier 1 represents the lowest risk to the public and tiers 2 and 3, progressively higher risk.
Out of the 229 people registered as sex offenders in Chula Vista, a city of nearly 275,000 people, 169 are categorized under tiers 2 and 3.
Due to this multi-agency effort, officials were able to conduct home visits on Thursday at all listed addresses for tiers 2 and 3 registered sex offenders at one time.
Detectives are regularly assigned to verify offender’s compliance with state law, to ensure that they’re providing up-to-date and accurate information regarding their residence, phone numbers, vehicles and employment.
The Chula Vista Police Department will seek arrest warrants for those found to be out of compliance.
Among the 125 residences visited from 7 a.m. to noon, 140 compliance checks were completed, with 20 pending an additional visit. Of those completed, 112 registrants were verified as being in compliance, and eight are still being evaluated by detectives.
