The Sex Offender Tracking Program at the California Department of Justice (DOJ) maintains the registered sex offender database. That database is the basis for the information displayed on the internet pursuant to Megan’s Law.
By law, persons convicted of specified sex crimes are required to register as sex offenders with a local law enforcement agency. California Penal Code Section 290 states that those individuals convicted of certain sex crimes, must register as a sexual offender for the remainder of their life.
The granting of a certificate of rehabilitation by a California court can cause a person to be excluded from internet disclosure. While a certificate of rehabilitation does not remove the conviction from your criminal record, it is a court order that essentially states that you are a law abiding citizen.
