The Iowa Department of Public Safety has updated the look and some of the features of the Sex Offender Registry website. DCI Agent Hunter Bellon oversees the site and says one thing they updated is the landing page.
He says they’ve added what’s called a “heat map” to the www.iowasexoffender.gov site that shows where the 67-hundred registered offenders are located.
Bellon says they send out some 70,000 notifications each month to those who sign up to get them.
Bellon says you can still get the same notifications with the new website.
Bellon says if you have trouble signing in, you can get help on the contact page of the website.
