Angelina County Registered Sex Offenders

Searching for sex offenders in Angelina County can be done through the Texas DPS public registry, which includes all people registered with the Angelina County Sheriff's Office and the Lufkin Police Department. The registry is free, searchable by name or location, and updated on a regular basis. This page covers how to search, who handles registration in Angelina County, and what the law requires of registered offenders.

Angelina County Sheriff's Office

The Angelina County Sheriff's Office is located at 2501 E. Lufkin Ave., Lufkin, TX 75901. You can reach them at (936) 634-3332. The Sheriff handles sex offender registration for all residents in unincorporated parts of Angelina County. Registration is done in person during regular business hours. The Sheriff's Office forwards all registration data to the Texas Department of Public Safety for inclusion in the statewide public registry.

Offenders who live within Lufkin city limits must register with the Lufkin Police Department, not the Sheriff. If you are unsure which agency covers a specific address, calling the Sheriff's Office is a good starting point. Angelina County includes several smaller communities in addition to Lufkin, and most of those fall under the Sheriff's jurisdiction for registration purposes.

Registration Requirements in Angelina County

Texas sex offender registration is governed by Chapter 62 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure. The law applies to anyone convicted of a qualifying sex offense in Texas or elsewhere who establishes a residence in the state. In Angelina County, the obligation to register falls on both adult and juvenile offenders, though juvenile registration rules differ somewhat from adult rules.

All registrants must appear in person at the appropriate law enforcement agency within seven days of moving to or within the county. They must provide their name, current address, a photograph, and information about their conviction. Annual verification is required at a minimum. Some offenders, especially those classified as higher risk, must verify more often. Moving out of Angelina County does not end the registration obligation. The offender must register in their new location and inform both the old and new agency of the change.

• Register within 7 days of establishing a residence in Angelina County
• Report in person to the Sheriff or to the Lufkin Police if living within city limits
• Provide photo, address proof, and required identification
• Verify at least once a year; more often if required by risk level
• Notify the agency if you move within or out of the county

Note: Failure to register or verify on time is a felony under Texas law and can result in serious criminal penalties.

Court Records and Additional Resources

The Angelina County District Clerk maintains records for felony criminal cases, including sex offense convictions. Those records are public information and can show conviction details, sentences, and the specific registration requirements imposed by the court. The District Clerk's office is located in Lufkin at the Angelina County Courthouse.

The Texas Attorney General provides statewide victim support resources at texasattorneygeneral.gov. For information about juvenile offenders and the registration process for minors, the Texas Juvenile Justice Department is the right contact. The national registry at nsopw.gov also lets you search across state lines if you are trying to find someone who may have moved from another state to Angelina County.
