From Times Staff and Wire Reports
Kern County will have a website listing high-risk sex offenders, said the Bakersfield Police and Kern County Sheriff’s departments.
Until now, residents had to visit the Sheriff’s Department for information on offenders in the county. Limited information on high-risk offenders in Bakersfield was available at the Police Department’s website.
Sheriff Mack Wimbish had said that he wanted to put photographs, physical descriptions, ZIP Codes and a list of offenders’ crimes on the Internet.
