"SAFE Team" Sex Offender Audits Doubled in 2010
The San Diego SAFE (Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement) Task Force more than doubled the number of sex offenders who were audited in San Diego County during 2010 according to a new report.
The District Attorney's Office is a dedicated member of the SAFE Task Force.
During 2010, 2,062 sex offenders were contacted through audits. That number is up from 960 who were contacted in 2009. SAFE provided tactical support and manpower to nine local police departments for audits in those regions.
Audits are an essential part of public safety, said DA Bonnie Dumanis, because they confirm the location of known sexual offenders for law enforcement and the community.
"Even more important, audits tell us when someone is in violation of registration laws or engaging in other criminal activity."
