Tracking sex offenders a daunting, ever-growing task
USA - Miami Herald, FL - March 30, 2005

Miami - One month before a registered sexual offender allegedly kidnapped, raped and murdered 9-year-old Jessica
Lunsford, Florida law enforcement agencies had lost track of at least 1,800 other sexual offenders statewide,
according to a review of Florida's Sexual Offender/Predator Registry.
John Evander Couey, the man who would confess to killing Jessica, was not even listed as one of them because no
one knew he wasn't living at his reported address and was staying near the Lunsfords.
The fact that Couey wasn't marked as missing raises questions not only about how aggressively the state tracks
offenders known to be on the lam, but how many others have absconded that aren't noticed at all.
Couey was supposed to be living more than five miles from the Lunsford residence in Homosassa, Fla. Officials at
the Citrus County Sheriff's Office said they discovered he was staying less than a block from the Lunsford's in his
half-sister's mobile home - only after they began interviewing sex offenders as part of their investigation into
Jessica's disappearance.
Police found Jessica's body buried nearby after a three-week search.
"We can't do anything about Jessie's death now, but in the future we have to figure out a better way of knowing
where these guys are," said Archie Lunsford, Jessica's grandfather.
The Miami Herald obtained a copy of the sexual offender database in January and found 800 of those who were
missing had committed lewd or lascivious acts against children while another 130 had been sentenced for sexual
battery against minors younger than 16. Nearly all the remaining 870 committed sexual crimes against adults or
