SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY – Three allegedly out-of-compliance registered sex offenders during a county-wide sweep last week, authorities say.

According to the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office, a team made up of law enforcement officers from around the county conducted a compliance check sweep of registered sex offenders last Wednesday.

Nearly all of the sex registrants that were visited were in compliance, the sheriff's office says.

However, out of the 87 total residence checks, the sheriff's office says three were allegedly found out of compliance.

Those three people were taken into custody. A fourth person was also arrested for a different warrant.

The names of the three allegedly out-of-compliance people arrested were not released.

The sheriff's office says they will make an arrest of a sex registrant if they find false information was provided, or if conditions are not being met.
