F������� 16, 2011 Operation Desert Guardian conducts compliance checks on sex offenders LA PAZ COUNTY, Ariz- The United States Marshals Service AZ WANTED Violent Offender Task Force and Child Predator Apprehension Team con- ducted Operation Desert Guardian from February 9-10. Operation Des- ert Guardian targeted sex offenders in the La Paz County area and the cities within, as well as the Colorado River Indian Tribes (CRIT) Reservation. Compliance checks were conducted on registered sex offenders in a col- laborative effort with state and local partners. The primary focus of Operation Des- ert Guardian was to validate informa- tion provided by sex offenders during the registration and periodic re-reg- istration requirements under Arizona State Law. Sex offenders not in compli- ance with state or tribal law were sent to appropriate agencies for further in- vestigation. Certain cases may become federal investigations due to offenders violating the Sex Offender Registra- tion Notifi cation Act (SORNA) which ���.D�����M��������.��� Multiple Agencies conduct compliance checks is part of the Adam Walsh Child Pro- tection and Safety Act of 2006. On July 15, 2010, in accordance with SORNA, the Colorado River Indian Tribes established their own Sex Of- fender Registration Code (SORC). The new code mandated all sex offenders who are residing, employed, or a stu- dent must register with the tribal po- lice department. A deadline of Febru- ary 9, 2011, instructed all sex offenders on the reservation to be compliant. See Guardian Page 5 S OPEN HOUSE Palo Verde Cafe (in the lounge) at.
