The Wadena Police Department is releasing this information pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 244.052 and 253D. These statutes authorizes law
enforcement agencies to inform the public of a public registrant's release from prison or a secure treatment facility when the Wadena Police
Department believes that the release of information will enhance public safety and protection.
The individual who appears on this notification has been convicted of Criminal Sexual Conduct or another offense that requires registration with
law enforcement pursuant to Minnesota Statutes 243.166 or 243.167.
This individual has served the sentence imposed on them by the court and is transitioning into the community. This notification is not intended to
increase fear but rather raise awareness. Law enforcement believes that an informed public is a safer public.
The Wadena Police Department may not direct where this individual does or does not reside, nor can this agency direct where he/she works or goes
to school.
Those convicted of sexual or predatory offenses have always been released to live in our communities. It was not until the passage of the
Registration Act that law enforcement had an ability to track movement of these individuals after their initial release. With the passage of the
Community Notification Act law enforcement may now share information about many of these individuals with the public. Abuse of this
information to threaten, harass or intimidate a registered individual is unacceptable and such acts could be charged as a crime. Such abuses could
potentially end the ability of law enforcement to provide these notifications.
