Sex Offender Addresses: Ledyard Homes To Be Aware Of This Halloween
Before taking the kids trick or treating this Halloween, take note of who lives in your neighborhood.

According to the Connecticut Sex Offender Registry, there are 11 sex offenders living in Ledyard, as of October 2016.
More than half of rape/sexual assault incidents happen within a mile of the victim’s home, according to the United States Department of Justice. About 75 percent of victims know their attacker and 45 percent of victims are under 12-years-old.
The Connecticut Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection maintains the registry and updates information regularly, but that information can change quickly. Information is often provided by offenders themselves as required by law.
