Cinnaminson 2020 Sex Offender Safety Map

CINNAMINSON, NJ — Fall is a good time to take an inventory of who is living in your neighborhood. Cinnaminson has four registered sex offenders living in the township, one more than were living in Cinnaminson at this time last year, according to the New Jersey Sex Offender Registry.

Here is where sex offenders are registered as living in Cinnaminson. 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, date of birth and convictions.

Law enforcement officials and researchers caution that the registries play a limited role in preventing child sexual abuse and stress that most perpetrators are known to the child.

The U.S. Department of Justice, which oversees the National Sex Offender Public Website, estimates that only about 10 percent of perpetrators of child sexual abuse are strangers to the child.

The Justice Department estimates 60 percent of perpetrators are known to the child but are not family members but rather family friends, babysitters, child care providers and others, and 30 percent of child victims are abused by family members. Nearly a quarter of the abusers are under the age of 18, the department estimates.
