Crime Statistics
The BCC Public Safety Department maintains statistical crime data. Crime statistics
for the most recent three-year period including incidents reported to local
law enforcement are maintained. These
statistics also reflect incidents reported to the BCC Public Safety Department
from off-campus affiliated locations.
Sex Offender Registry and Access to Related Information
The federal Campus Sex Crimes Prevention
Act, enacted on
October 28, 2000, went into effect October 28, 2002. The law requires institutions of higher education
to issue a statement advising the campus community where law enforcement agency
information provided by a State concerning registered sex offenders may be
obtained.
Information
that is relevant and necessary to protect the public and to counteract
the danger created by a particular offender is released pursuant to RCW
4.24.550.
The
BCC Department of Public Safety maintains records of sex offenders who have
been brought to the attention of the BCC-DPS by the Seattle or King
County Police Departments as well as other law enforcement agencies.
Additionally, the King
County Sheriff's Office maintains an online registry of Level II and Level III sex
offenders who are registered to live in King County. You can
search for offenders by Zip Code or by an offender's name.
Washington State Law permits notifications about Level III offenders that include
relevant, accurate and necessary information. This information may be disclosed
to the public at large.
The BCC Public Safety Department maintains crime statistics for the most recent three-year period which are listed below. The below statistics reflect incidents reported to the BCC Public Safety Department on the main campus, only. There were no incidents reported to the BCC Public Safety Department from adjacent public property, off-campus affiliated locations and satellite BCC campuses.
