On the Job 

Information Technology Services workers from the Ohio Attorney General’s Office handed out new computers, monitors and scanners to each of the state’s 88 sheriff’s offices to be used for loading information about sex offenders into the OffenderWatch system. The equipment was provided free to law enforcement thanks to a federal grant. The new equipment will replace outdated models.

OffenderWatch is a national database and community-notification system used to keep track of sex offenders. It is kept up to date by law enforcement and can be accessed by the public through the websites of sheriff’s departments.
