NASHUA, NH - Registered sexual offenders in the state are under scrutiny after the New Hampshire attorney general’s office received information that those offenders had established profiles on MySpace.com. The information was provided Monday in response to a subpoena from state Attorney General Kelly Ayotte requesting the News Corp. company turn over the names of any MySpace user that its partner company Sentinel Tech Holding Corp. had identified as a registered sexual offender, officials with the attorney general’s office said in a written statement. All of the 153 MySpace users identified as registered sexual offenders in New Hampshire have been removed from the company’s Web site, and officials with the attorney general’s office have passed their names to officials at the state’s Department of Corrections, the statement said. “The probation and parole department has been asked to determine if any of the individuals identified by MySpace have violated any of the terms of their probation or parole,” the statement said. “It is expected that any such violations will be brought to the attention of the prosecutor for whatever further criminal actions that can be taken.” Officials at the office were not available Monday to provide further information about the 153 people the company identified as sexual offenders. According to the New Hampshire State Police Web site, Nashua has 62 residents registered as offenders against children. Hudson and Merrimack each have 10 residents registered as sexual offenders, and Milford has 14 such residents. Read more.
