The Jackson Police Department conducted a sex offender compliance operation, Operation Spring Sweep, which was supported operationally and tactically by the United States Marshals Service on Tuesday.
In an effort to assist state and local law enforcement, the USMS has been tasked by the United States Attorney General to provide needed assistance to law enforcement agencies that are mandated to comply with the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act.
In order to fulfill this obligation, the USMS has developed a system of partnering with state and local agencies to investigate, apprehend, and prosecute offenders that are not in compliance with their legal obligations that have been ordered upon them by the courts.
