The Washington County Sheriff's Office has made a public announcement pertaining to the relocation of a registered sex offender within the local community. According to a Facebook post by the Washington County, Wisconsin Sheriff's Office, Jeffrey T. Indresano, who was previously convicted of a sex offense, has moved to a new residence in the Town of Trenton. Indresano's conviction dates back to February 13th, 2002, for 1st Degree Sexual Assault of a Child, a violation of WI Statute 948.02(1).
Upon serving his sentence, Indresano was released on September 13th, 2016, and had been living in the Township of Jackson until recently. The Washington County, Wisconsin Sheriff's Office emphasized that there has been no reports of re-offending since his release. However, they deem it necessary to, publicly announce his new address: 6065 S. Oak Rd as a measure to possibly enhance public safety. "Jeffrey T. Indresano will be on probation until Aug. 22nd 2039 and will be monitored closely by WI-DOC Division of Community Corrections agents," as per the Washington County, Wisconsin Sheriff's Office notice.
It was further indicated that while Indresano has fulfilled the prison sentence mandated by the courts, and is not currently sought by law enforcement, he is still subject to a rigorous set of rules and restrictions. The statement from the Washington County, Wisconsin Sheriff's Office continues to detail their belief: "This notification is not intended to increase fear, but rather it is our belief that an informed public is a safer public."
The update on Indresano's relocation comes as a result of the Sex Offender Registration and Community Notification Law, which empowers law enforcement agencies to inform communities about the presence of sex offenders. The law aims to bring transparency and awareness, a necessary step to ensure community members are informed about individuals with such convictions residing in their area. The Washington County, Wisconsin Sheriff's Office, in their post, reminds citizens that "Sex offenders have always lived in our communities; but it was not until the Sex Offender Registration and Community Notification Law was enacted that law enforcement was able to share this information with the community."
