A sex offender has been convicted of failing to register in Alabama, according to a recent conviction. Joseph P. DeMarco, 48, was found guilty by a jury in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Alabama following a one-day trial.
DeMarco was required to register as a sex offender following a 2003 conviction for Sex Abuse 1st Degree involving an eight-year-old victim. Testimony at trial showed that DeMarco was employed in Louisiana and moved from his registered address in Mobile County, but failed to register as required in Louisiana or update his registration in Alabama.
The case was investigated by the United States Marshals Service and the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office. Assistant United States Attorney Maria Murphy handled the prosecution on behalf of the United States.
DeMarco is scheduled to be sentenced on December 6, 2013 by United States District Judge Kristi K. DuBose. He faces up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000, and up to 3 years of supervised release following his release from prison.
This conviction serves as a reminder of the importance of sex offender registration and the consequences of failing to comply with the law.
