Dixon Man Arrested During Sex Offender Sweep; 6 Found in Compliance

A 51-year-old man was arrested in Dixon during a late-March sex-offender sweep, the Solano County Sheriff's Office announced this weekend. 

Raymond Rorvik was arrested in the 200 block of West H Street for violating the terms and conditions of his parole, according to the Solano County Sheriff’s Office Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement (S.A.F.E.) Task Force and the Dixon Police Department.

"As a result of the checks, six of the subjects were found to be in compliance, one arrest was made, and one criminal complaint was filed with the District Attorney’s Office," according to a statement from SAFE.

Here are the details of the sweep in Dixon: 

Joined efforts to conduct compliance checks on seven subjects in the city of Dixon to ensure they were abiding by the terms and conditions of their state parole.

The Solano County S.A.F.E. Task Force focuses its efforts on proactive sex offender monitoring, field audits, and follow-up on sex offenders who move into or out of Solano County. The Solano County S.A.F.E. Task Force ensures sex offenders meet their registration requirements, per California Penal Code 290, and abide by the terms and conditions of their state parole.

Under California Penal Code section 290, anyone convicted of a felony sex crime must register with local law enforcement and notify agencies annually of where they are living and when or if they relocate.

The Sheriff’s Office encourages the public to check the State of California’s Department of Justice Megan’s Law website for information regarding sex offenders. This website provides the public with certain information on the whereabouts of sex offenders so that members of our local communities can protect themselves and their children. Megan's Law is named after seven-year-old Megan Kanka, a New Jersey girl who was raped and killed by a known registered sex offender who had moved across the street from the family without their knowledge. In the wake of the tragedy, the Kankas sought to have local communities warned about sex offenders in the area. The law is not intended to punish the registrant and specifically prohibits using the information to harass or commit any crime against a registrant (Pen. Code § 290.46.).
