In North Carolina, county sheriffs are responsible for registration and local management of offenders.
The North Carolina Department of Justice, through its State Bureau of Investigation (SBI), makes information available to the public on individuals required to register as offenders under Article 27A, Sex offender and Public Protection Registration Programs, North Carolina General Statute 14-208.5 et al.
Information is provided to the SBI by county sheriffs, courts, the North Carolina Department of Correction and other law enforcement/criminal justice agencies responsible for registering, classifying and managing offenders under these laws.

Only North Carolina’s sheriffs have statutory authority to manage registered offenders, which includes but not limited to: initial registration, address verification, compliance with applicable state laws and court provisions, and submission of biographical information (such as photographs) to the SBI to post and appear on the public registry website.
Individuals with questions regarding offenders appearing on the public registry website should contact the sheriff of the county listed for that offender. A list of North Carolina sheriffs can be found at: http://www.ncsheriffs.org/ncmap.htm.
