Crimereports.com
What a great website. Where has this been the last 2 years? This allows me to see what’s going on around my work place and it’s so easy to use. I tried the beta 2.0 version and it was real easy to use and I did not have any difficulties. I liked how you can select the 3,7,30 days of the criminal acts of the past.
Also, it provides you with information with sexual offenders. I typed in my home address and low and behold 3 roads away is a 27 year old offender. This makes me aware now when starting to plan a family in the neighborhood. I don’t want any unwanted surprises. As, for privacy infringements? I am for the fact if you do the act or a crime you give up all your rights if you get caught. Could someone look up a sex offender and go assault them? Yes, could be possible but when you look up a sex offender have to approve a disclaimer.
This website is great, I have book marked it and now looking all over the place to see what type of creeps are lurking in the surrounding areas around my love ones. This is one of the best web applications I think that is available for the public. It will help keep your family safe as well as know where the trouble areas are if you are planning a vacation.

I took a look at the website and unfortunately there was not much activity going on in Plymouth, MA where I am. I tried to search for level 3 sex offenders and it only found 1 in Plymouth. I did check out Boston which had quite a bit more activity but it didnt list the level 3 sex offenders that I am aware of from our local sex offender registry website. It probably works better in the city areas more. However it is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI checked out this website and thought it was pretty neat. It gives you some information about sex offenders in your area. I checked out a few different addresses; my own, my boyfriend's house, and his father's house. It said there are no sex offenders in my area but near my boyfriend's house there were a few. That's pretty scary but it is definitely good to be aware of the crime going on in certain areas! He lives in Lowell, MA so I wasn't too surprised by this.
ReplyDeleteJustin,
ReplyDeleteCool site. I didn't know this existed. This seems like it would be a handy thing to use if you were thinking of buying a home. Nobody wants to get tricked into living in a bad neighborhood if they can avoid it.
I have seen this site before and I have been telling people about it but they think I'm over the top. But seriously, this is something to be concerned about. When you can see what kind of predators are lerking in your neighborhood or potentially lerking, it should be a concern. I don't feel they have the right to any privacy at all. I really think something needs to be done with sex offenders in the long run. Jail doesn't help them, they are sick and they will always have that urge. When they get desperate enought they act and it's just a matter of time. There are many near my town, not close but close enough. I hope law enforcement can do more someday to treat these people because they are time bombs ready to go off.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great site! It's very useful for checking the area around where someone lives but it is also useful to look at the area where a person works and areas where a person shops or visits. It's good to know where you need to be more careful or alert.
