What’s an important take-away from this article (aside from the reminder to register all your email addresses or you could be hit with a third degree felony) is the highlighted sentence below. Apparently “FDLE is working to bring forensic analysis to sex offenders’ homes…” What’s that all about?

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla.

A convicted sex offender was arrested and taken to jail because he had an email account that wasn’t registered with the state.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement said Robert Roberts violated his probation by having a Facebook account and an email address that wasn’t registered.

Channel 9 found out it’s a common problem that probation officers and state agents deal with.

“He knew he was not allowed to have an unregistered email,” FDLE Special Agent Tony Rodriguez said.

Roberts, 70, is on probation from a 2005 sex crime involving a victim under 16 years old. He reportedly told his probation officer he’s had an email account for years.

The sex offender is also accused of sending a friend request to the victim in his sex crime case.

Rodriguez said it can be tough to closely monitor sex offenders and their activity on the Internet.

“Some probationary agencies do not have the agents to go out and check the digital media,” Rodriguez said.

FDLE is working to bring forensic analysis to sex offenders’ homes in order to easily verify if they’re on the Internet.

“We are working. We are checking. We are out there and we will find them,” Rodriguez said.
