Defendant Name, Crime, State Year

Anthony Vincent Burkitt, 44, also known as Vincent Thomas Wolfe, was indicted on a federal charge of failure to register as a sex offender in Florida.

According to the indictment, Burkitt was convicted of attempted second-degree rape in Baltimore County, Maryland, on September 27, 2002. After his conviction, he traveled from Maryland to Florida between September 9, 2011, and April 13, 2014. Burkitt allegedly failed to register as a sex offender in Florida, as required by the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act.

The Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act is part of the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006. The Adam Walsh Act also provides for the use of federal law enforcement resources to assist state and local authorities in locating and apprehending non-compliant sex offenders.

An indictment is merely a formal charge that a defendant has committed one or more violations of federal criminal law, and every defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.

This case was investigated by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, the United States Marshals Service, and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. It is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney D. Rodney Brown.

The case is part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
