The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) compiles and provides information about registered sexual predators and offenders in a variety of easily searchable formats. By visiting links below to various parts of the FDLE website, residents can search for registered individuals by address or map, and can even sign up to receive automatic email alerts when sexual predators or offenders move near their entered address. These functions are a quick and efficient way to stay apprised of registered sexual predators and offenders who may have moved near addresses you frequent such as your home, work, gym, or church.
