MARIN COUNTY, CA — Authorities this week checked to see if sex offenders in Marin County were in compliance with the terms of their probation. Marin County sheriff's detectives, county probation officers and California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation K9 units conducted unannounced searches Tuesday across the county, contacting 19 registered and non-registrant sex offenders. One offender admitted using illegal substances and was arrested, according to the Marin County Probation Department. After searching his home, officers seized his electronic devices for further investigation. A court date to address his violation is pending. "Probation operations and regular client contact during these unprecedented times continue to be a department priority to support our clients and to promote community safety," said Probation Chief Marlon Washington. "These operations are imperative to ensure sex offender adherence to registration requirements and overall probation and parole compliance."
