YARMOUTH POLICE
SEX OFFENDER COMMUNITY NOTIFICATION
The Yarmouth Police Department is releasing the following information pursuant to M.G.L. c. 6.Sec 178C
through 178P, which authorizes law enforcement agencies to release information that will enhance public
safety and protection.
The individual who appears in this notification has been convicted of a sex offense that requires his
registration. This person has been designated a LEVEL 3 SEX OFFENDER by the Sex Offender Registry
Board (SORB). The Board has determined that this individual is at a high risk to re-offend and that the degree of dangerousness posed to the public is such that a substantial public safety interest is served by
active community notification.
Law Enforcement agencies have no authority to direct where a sex offender lives or works. Unless court ordered
restrictions exist, this offender is constitutionally free to live wherever he chooses. Sex offenders have always lived in
our community; however, it was not until the passage of this law (which mandates sex offender registration) that law
enforcement agencies could share this information with the public. Any abuse of this information to threaten,
intimidate or harass registered sex offenders will not be tolerated and could potentially jeopardize our authority to
keep the public informed.
