The Law Enforcement Notification System (LENS) is a web-based system which provides local law enforcement with information on federal offenders currently on supervision with the U.S. Courts. This release of information is required by the Violent Crime Control Act of 1994. Qualifying offenders include those convicted of certain drug trafficking crimes, crimes of violence, sex offenses and those convicted of internet child pornography offenses included as part of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act. LENS does not include offender information for those convicted in state or local jurisdictions nor does it include federal offenders convicted of non-qualifying offenses.

LENS allows real time updates regarding these offenders, provides the ability to search neighboring jurisdictions and nationwide. The information you are provided here is in addition to information reported within NCIC and other systems. LENS is available 24 hours, 7 days a week. However, call-in support and signup instructions can be obtained from your local U.S. Probation Office Monday through Friday during normal business hours.
