Sex Offender Search and Lookup:

Federal law stipulates that convicted sex offenders must register in the sex offender database of the state they reside in. They must also be registered in the National Sex Offender Registry. Both databases are made available to the public to help promote safety and awareness. Sex offenders are legally defined as individuals who have been charged and convicted of a sex-related offense such as sexual assault, prostitution, and child molestation. People who want to learn about the sex offenders in Lee County can use the state’s sex offender registry at.

Please make sure that you read and understand the disclaimer. It cannot be guaranteed that the information listed on the database is completely accurate. Some search results may only reveal the last known residence of a sex offender. In some cases, only the block where the offender’s house is located will be listed.

Bail and Bondsman

If you are charged with a crime in Lee County, you may be allowed to post bail as soon as the bond has been set.  If you are unable to come up with enough money to pay the bond, you can use the services of a bondsman to arrange the necessary paperwork and pay the required amount in order for you to get released from jail while waiting for the trial to begin. For this service, the bondsman typically charges 10% of the bail as his fee. It is non-refundable.
