is the info complete and reliable I ran a couple of queries - one of a serial killer (deceased) and another for local sex offenders that I knew because of a state web site. In the serial killer case - it got no hits. In the sex offender search, it got one hit when the State site showed 4. so I'm thinking that I'd like to have a little more toasty feeling about the information being complete and reliable. So.. the folks reporting on this - are they doing a check with the police... and then comparing that list with what this tool generates? It would be a good thing to do.
