16 New Sex Offenders Move Into 52nd Pct. Nabes
More than a dozen convicted sex offenders, with convictions that include the rape of a 10-year-old child, have moved within the confines of the 52nd Precinct. Officers at the precinct, which covers the neighborhoods of Norwood, Bedford Park, Kingsbridge Heights, Fordham, and University Heights, were made aware of the move by probationary officers. Officers have since stopped by community meetings to alert residents. Sex offenders are required to register their name on a database following their conviction and release. They must tell authorities they’ve moved to a new neighborhood each time, or possibly serve time. The registry can be found
