The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office will stop registering sex offenders who reside inside municipalities, it announced to cities in October.
The Office cited Department of Public Safety regulations barring them from doing so unless some sort of agreement is made between the county and the city, meaning that it is up to each city’s police department to register sex offenders.
According to MCSO Lt. Brady Fitzgerald, these regulations were recently “discovered” by the Office, prompting a letter sent to cities sometime in September or October.
