Law enforcement officials in Katrina-hit areas of the Gulf Coast are asking for help in locating 2,000 registered sex offenders who are no longer where they are supposed to be.
It is believed that many fled as the monster hurricane approached the coastline and were sent to states that took in Katrina evacuees, including Michigan.
Most have failed to register their whereabouts as they are required to by law. Officials are worried that these people will be more willing to strike again since they are no longer under supervision of the state that they were from.
FEMA has sent out a warning message to all fifty state governors apprising them of the situation and encouraging them to do what they can to locate the missing 2,000 offenders.
Hopefully this situation will be corrected soon.
