Federal law stipulates that all sex offenders need to register their information in the state sex offender database and the national sex offender database. These systems are utilized by law enforcement agencies to monitor the movement of these offenders in the interest of public safety. A person is considered a sex offender if he has a conviction for a crime involving sexual conduct such as rape, incest, and prostitution. In Morris County, you can visit the Sheriff’s Alert page to view information on sex offenders living in the area. Take note that not all sex offenders obey the registration law. As such, you may find that some records only show last known addresses.

Bail and Bondsman

A person charged with a crime in Morris County may be released temporarily out of jail depending on his score on a risk assessment tool. This algorithm is now utilized as part of the new bail system. A defendant’s information such as his criminal history is entered into the tool in order to calculate how much of a risk he will be to society if released. A high score means the defendant is likely to commit another illegal offense or fail to appear in court so he must remain in custody. A low score means the opposite and suggests to the judge that the defendant can be allowed to stay out of jail. Monitoring by the courts may be recommended as well.
