I also live in PA. I think (but not sure) that if he is a "violent predator" that the local cops would have to notify the neighborhood, schools, etc. If he is not a "violent predator" (of course, that means NOTHING to me where my kids are concerned) than they don't have to notify anyone. Contact you local police dept and question them. If you get no where with that, than call the PA State Police, Megan's Law Dept, and ask them. They can only give out so much info because we know how important it is to protect the perverts over protecting the children.

Because legally they can. Do yourself a favor and search engine "Megans Law". Put in your location, and you will find all of them within a mile of your home.

It is our unanimous opinion that you are damn right and it should be obvious to any moron that your (ex) (SO’s ex) (boss) (landlord) (local police) should be immediately (jailed) (fired) (reprimanded) (arrested) (demoted) (shot) (evicted).
In fact, you are so astonishingly correct in this matter, it will not surprise us one bit if you are offered a generous settlement, because, by golly, that’s just how it should be.

You Rock,
Love,
