When you are convicted of a sex crime in Orange County or anywhere in California, the consequences are usually long-term. Not only does the defendant face jail or prison time and hefty fines, but he or she is also required to register as a sex offender – even after serving time. Convicted sex offenders are required to register with local law enforcement agencies. Their information, including home address and photo, could be posted on the Megan’s Law website for the public to see. In addition, a number of cities in Orange County are adopting ordinances banning convicted sex offenders from entering city parks without prior police permission.
