Sheriff’s office announces sex offender address update

The Clark County Sheriff’s Office has announced that Randy P. Scott, 59, has had a change of address. As of March 30, Scott is residing at W5346 Schofield Road, Neillsville. Scott was previously convicted of child enticement and possession of child pornography. His targeted victims were minor females. He had online conversations with someone he believed to be a 14-year-old female. He arranged to meet for the purpose of having sexual intercourse. He was also in possession of child sexual abuse material with images of pre-pubescent female victims.

Scott is 5’9” tall and weighs approximately 200 pounds. He has brown hair and hazel eyes. Scott has served the sentence imposed on him by the courts and is not wanted by law enforcement at this time.

“This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather, it is our belief that an informed public is a safer public,” Captain Kerry Kirn of the sheriff’s office wrote in an April 1 press release.

Scott will be supervised by agents specializing in intensive supervision. He is to have no unsupervised contact with minors, no visits to taverns/bars/liquor stores, and is not to consume any drugs. He is to comply with the standard sex offender rules, cooperate with electronic monitoring, and is required to have face-to-face contact with law enforcement, as well as comply with all requirements as a lifetime registrant of the Wisconsin Sex Offender Registry.

Notification of sex offender release Wisconsin Statute 301.46(2m) authorizes law enforcement agencies to inform the public of a sex offender’s release when, in the discretion of the agency, the release of information will enhance public safety, awareness and protection. The individual who appears on this notification has been convicted of a sex offense. Further, his criminal history places him in a classification level, which reflects the potential to re-offend.

“Sex offenders have always lived in our communities; but it was not until the Sex Offender Registration and Community Notification Law was enacted that law enforcement was able to share this information with the community. Citizen abuse of this information to threaten, intimidate or harass registered sex offenders will not be tolerated,” Kirn wrote.

If you have any questions, contact Kirn at 715-7435358.
