The California Sex Offender Management Board (CASOMB) released its annual report today for the year 2025. The report includes statistics regarding the total number of people required to register in the state by county. According to that report, Los Angeles County has the highest number of registrants living there — 13,056 while Alpine County has the lowest number of registrants living there — 2. And there are four counties that have more than 3,500 registrants living there — Sacramento (3,670), San Diego (3,695), Riverside (4,193) and San Bernardino (4,452).
According to the report, the total number of registrants living outside of jail or prison has decreased slightly, from 75,382 to 74,395. However, the total number of registrants in jail or prison has increased slightly, from 20,338 to 20,669.
The report also includes descriptions of actions taken by its subcommittees. The Complaints Subcommittee reported that it received 26 complaints regarding treatment providers for registrants on parole. The Certification Subcommittee reported that it decertified one agency as well as an unspecified number of individual providers. The Tiered Registration Subcommittee authored a position paper in opposition to Senate Bill 680, which ultimately became law.
The next CASOMB meeting will be held on March 19 in Los Angeles county. More information regarding that meeting can be found at http://www.casomb.org.

Year End Report - 2025

The Static-99R has a self-reported Area Under the Curve (AUC) of 0.69 to 0.70. An AUC of 0.69 is considered poor predictive performance according to scientific standards. You can ask any mathematician or statistician whether 0.69 to 0.70 is considered good–and they will say no. In other words the Static-99R is only slightly better than a flip of a coin, a roulette wheel (red vs. black; or even vs. odd), or a random guess. It’s highly misleading for the State of California to characterize the Static-99R as “moderately accurate” because doing so is a straight-up lie. Plus, there are tons of other flaws to the Static-99R. Absolutely insane.
Politicians can’t do anything without screwing up everything. Less than a 1000 person net-decline in a single year. This honestly doesn’t feel much different than what we had before the Tiered registry. Just a different group of people who can now get off. Most of the people who previously qualified under COR no longer qualify under the Tiered system. And those that do qualify now, aren’t really any larger demographic. I truly hate the woman that ruined everything for millions. It honestly feels worse off for the majority thanks to nearly everyone now being forced onto a public listing when they were not for decades.
What is the use of this board if legislators are going to ignore their recommendations? I hope that they aren’t being paid.
Only a thousand people being released from the register since July 2021 just shows that the registry is uncontrollable it’s taken on life of its own and they can’t stop it.
thier is good news though, the registry still costs them LOTS OF $$$ a 1000 decline still will cost them about the same ! The more $$ it costs them for thier foolish actions the better !!
