SEX OFFENDER MAP: Where are the high-ranking sex offenders in Stoughton?
Level 3 sex offenders are not wanted by the police, but they are considered at the highest risk for a repeat offense.

Stoughton has seven sex offenders either living or working in the town, according to the Massachusetts Sex Offender Registry Board.
Only the most severe sex offenders warrant a level 3 designation. That means they’re considered a ”high risk” to commit another offense, according to authorities. However, they are not wanted by the police, and using this information or harass or discriminate against these individuals is against the law.
More specific info on the sex offenders is on the map, and at the bottom of the page.
