Sex Offender Search and Lookup:

Sex offenders must register their information in the national and state sex offender databases. These databases are accessible to the public as a safety resource. A sex offender is a person who has been convicted of a criminal offense that involves sexual misconduct against another individual with the use of force, manipulation, or threats. While states may differ in which crimes are classified as sex crimes, there are some offenses that are widely accepted by all such as rape, child molestation, and sex trafficking. To locate sex offenders living in Kentucky, you can use the registry here. Bear in mind that you may find addresses of offenders that are no longer current. This is because some offenders fail to update their registration.

Bail and Bondsman

A person who is charged with a crime is able to secure release from custody or jail while waiting for his trial to begin if the court grants him bail. Bail is granted if the defendant can guarantee his appearance at his trial. For some defendants, an additional guarantee is required. This is usually in the form of money or property. Missing just one of his scheduled court appearances will result in the loss of that money or property.

A bonds agent is a person who is hired by defendants who are unable to post bail due to lack of money. A bondsman will ask for a non-refundable fee, usually 10% of the bail amount, in return for his guarantee that the entire bail amount will be paid if the defendant violates the terms of his bail.

Commercial bail bonding is banned in Kentucky. Ky. Stat. § 431.510 (outlawing commercial bail bond industry); see Stephens v. Bonding Assoc. of Kentucky, 538 S.W.2d 580 (Ky 1976) (upholding statute). An out-of-state bonds agent can only arrest a fugitive hiding out in Kentucky if he first acquires a warrant. Ky. Rev. Stat. § 440.270.
