Burlington County Man Didn't Register As Sex Offender: Police

Police are asking for the public’s help to find a 61-year-old man who failed to register as a sex offender, Burlington County Prosecutor Scott Coffina announced on Friday.

William Dean is required to register under Megan’s Law, according to authorities. He is described as a white man, who stands 6’0” tall and weighs about 220 pounds. He may be in the Camden area, and may be using the name Billy Dean. His image is attached to this post.

The prosecutor’s office isn’t permitted to release details of his criminal case under state law. State law requires registered sex offenders who plan to move to a new residence to notify police in the town where they presently live about the change, and also provide their new address to police in the municipality where they intend to move.

Dean is considered a fugitive. Anyone with information about his whereabouts is urged to call the prosecutor’s office at 609-265-5035, and ask to speak to a detective in the Megan’s Law Unit. Information can also be emailed to BCPOMegansLaw@co.burlington.nj.us. Anonymous tips are welcome.

Under state law, the New Jersey State Police are responsible for administering the Sex Offender Internet Registry. For more information, visit https://www.njsp.org/sex-offenderregistry/index.shtml.
