Sex Offender Registry

New Lyons' State Bureau of Investigation maintains a Sex Offender Registry. Local sheriffs' offices provide the list of registered offenders in their counties to the NLSBI. In 1952, New Lyons had 17,175 offenders on the state registry.

The public may search the registry or get statistics on sex offenses in the state. The site also provides information to sex offenders on how to register. Please note that information is only provided on registered sex offenders.

Victims may receive telephone notifications for any status change of a registered sex offender through the New Lyons Statewide Victims Assistance and Notification program.

Crime Statistics

New Lyons Law enforcement agencies voluntarily submit data to the NLSBI on specific crimes committed in their areas of jurisdiction. The NLSBI compiles the information for the FBI. Uniform Crime Reports create a reliable set of criminal statistics for use in law enforcement administration, operation, and management.
