EXHIBIT 1 <br />Lifetime Sex Offender Registry Reports <br />National Credit Reporting (NCR) is one of only three (3) companies in the U.S, that <br />maintains a contract with the California Department of Justice for direct access to their, <br />HUD specific, Sex Offender Registration database. This particular database includes all <br />three levels of offenders falling into the categories titled as "high risk", "serious risk" and <br />"other". While Megan's Law has made the high risk and serious risk offender <br />information available to the public through the police and sheriff departments, the <br />offenders listed in the "other" category are only available through the Department of <br />Justice. Additionally, HUD has required all Public Housing Agencies to search and <br />deny offenders in all three categories. <br />If you are using an online sex offender database, you might be receiving only half of <br />the registered sex offenders, which equates to missing approximately 50,000 sex <br />offenders. Additionally, HUD and the California Attorney General, Bill Lockyer, <br />have required all Public Housing Agencies to search and deny sex offenders in all <br />three categories. <br />In addition to this relationship with the Department of Justice, NCR has contracted with <br />vendors across the nation to provide Sex Offender Registration Reports from all 50 states. <br />This ability to provide the registration information from each state is vital in meeting the <br />requirements of the Screen and Eviction for Drug Abuse and Other Criminal Activity <br />ruling. This regulation states that the applicant should be screened for registration in the <br />state of application as well as that of any other known address. <br />The Sex Offender Registration Report provided by NCR includes the following <br />information: <br />a) First, Middle and Last name <br />b) Date of Birth <br />c) Social Security Number <br />d) Any known Aliases <br />e) A list of Penal Codes and Description of Charges <br />f) Category in which the Offender is Listed <br />gl In some cases a description of the individual including: ethnicity, gender, <br />hair and eye color, height and weight. <br />4-19 <br />
