Which code stands for a registered sexual offender?

• A. Known Offender
• B. Felony Warrant
• C. Registered Sexual Offender
• D. Stolen Vehicle

Answer: (C)

In police radio terminology, designated labels quickly convey important status about a person. The label that specifically identifies someone as listed on the sex offender registry is “Registered Sexual Offender.” This is used to alert officers to a verified, ongoing safety-risk status and to take appropriate precautions or coordinate with investigators. Other terms refer to different situations: “Known Offender” is a general tag for someone known to have offenses, not necessarily registered; “Felony Warrant” means an active felony warrant; “Stolen Vehicle” applies to property, not a person.
