How can I view the Megan's Law Sex Offender Database?
California law, commonly referred to as "Megan's Law", requires persons convicted of specified crimes to register with the police jurisdiction in which they live as "Sex Offenders", and for those police agencies to report to the State certain information about that individual that is maintained in a statewide database. State law further provides an opportunity for members of the public to view the contents of that database for the following:

Registrant's aliases
Registrant's photograph (if available)
A list of the registrant's scars, marks, or tattoos
The offense(s) for which the registrant was convicted
Registrant's county of residence
