Sex Offender Map 2015: Homes to Watch Out for in Frankfort, Mokena, and New Lenox

Before kids go out trick or treating on Halloween, fall is a good time to take inventory of who is living in your neighborhood.

The Lincoln-way area has 33 registered sex offenders listed on the Illinois Sex Offender Registry.

• 11 live in Frankfort, 6 of which are sexual predators
• 10 live in Mokena, 6 are sexual predators
• 12 are listed in New Lenox: 2 are incarcerated, 1 is homeless

Registered sex offenders are prohibited from passing out candy on Halloween. They may not appear in a Halloween costume or other child-centered holiday character, such as Santa or the Easter Bunny, in public. Registered sex offenders, however, may wear a Halloween costume in their home,according to the Illinois Sex Offender Registry.

Pins on the map represent addresses of offenders convicted of sex crimes. Roll your cursor over the pins, and you will see more information pop up, including the registered sex offender’s name, address, current age, convictions, and the age of the offender and victim at the time of the offense.

You may want to avoid trick or treating at these houses and apartments on Halloween, or merely be aware of who’s living in your neighborhood during the rest of the year.
