Florida
law requires the FDLE to maintain an updated list of Registered
Sexual Predators in this state after a court has made a written
finding designating them as a Sexual Predator. Certain sex
offenders must register directly with law enforcement or have
information compiled by the Department of Corrections, with
that information to be provided to FDLE. Florida law makes
that information available to the public. This site provides
you with public information regarding Sexual Predators and
Sex Offenders.

The 1997
Florida Legislature enacted provisions requiring registration
and permitting community notification regarding "sex
offenders." Not all "sex offenders" are "sexual
predators", so in determining registration requirements,
caution must be exercised in evaluating the offender's criminal
history. Provisions for sexual offenders are found primarily
in Florida Statute 943.0435.
