Welcome
Our office is pleased to provide OffenderWatch® for the citizens of Glendale. OffenderWatch® is the nation's leading registered sex offender management and community notification tool with hundreds of leading agencies in dozens of states utilizing it. Glendale's law enforcement utilizes OffenderWatch® to manage and monitor the whereabouts, conduct and compliance status of the registered offenders in Glendale. OffenderWatch® provides the most accurate and timely information available and now this information is available to you! OffenderWatch® is updated instantaneously throughout the day as offender addresses and other offender information is updated in our office. You may enter any address in the county and see real-time information on the publishable offenders within the specified radius of the address you enter. Offenders move frequently, so instead of having to check the maps on a weekly basis, the best way to stay informed is to take advantage of our free email alert system. You may confidentially register as many addresses in the county as you wish, and we will continuously monitor the addresses and send you an email alert if a new offender registers an address within one mile of any address you register. There is no cost for this service and no limit to the number of addresses you can register - your email address and physical addresses are all confidential. Tell your friends and neighbors and be sure to register your home, school, work, gym, day care, park, soccer field, parents or children's homes - any address of interest to you!
The Glendale Police Department maintains this OffenderWatch® portal as a community service. Please view the presentation above to get a better understanding of the facts about registered sex offenders and what our office is doing to comply with the law. Be sure to visit the Safety Tips page and review the information we have provided under the Community Awareness Fliers or the other links. You may print fliers for your use to distribute to your club, school, library or group. Arizona state law (A.R.S. 13-3825, Community Notification of Sex Offenders law) requires city and county law enforcement agencies to notify the community when certain sex offenders move into their local jurisdictions. This notification is required when sex offenders are released from the Arizona State Prison, county jail, or who relocate from another city or state. The individuals on this website, who have been convicted of a sex offense, are now living in Glendale, Arizona. Notification is not an indication that the person is wanted by any law enforcement agency. Community notification is not intended to increase fear; rather it is our belief that an informed public is a safer public.
Level 1 Offender: Lowest threat level to the community to become repeat offenders. No community notification.
Level 2 Offender: Intermediate risk to the community. This offender might still exhibit characteristics which could lead to a return to criminal behavior. Community notification is required.
Level 3 Offender: High risk to the community. The offender has a history of predatory sex crimes, has been convicted of a dangerous crime, or is diagnosed as a serial predator. Community notification required.
The Glendale Police Department has no legal authority to direct where a sex offender may or may not live. Unless court ordered restrictions exist, this offender is constitutionally free to live wherever he chooses. Abuse of the information contained on this site to threaten, intimidate, or harass sex offenders, is prohibited by law and will not be tolerated. Sex offenders have always lived in our communities; but because of Megan's Law, law enforcement is now able to share that information with you. If you have any information regarding current criminal activity involving the person identified on this website, please call (623) 930-3000. If you have any questions about OffenderWatch® or the community notification program, please contact our office at (623) 930-3225 and leave a message. The Glendale Police Department Community Services Unit is available to assist you in joining or starting a neighborhood watch program, as well as provide useful information on personal safety.
