Sedona AZ (September 2 , 2016) – The Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office is required to release the following information pursuant to ARS 13 – 3825, the Community Notification on Sex Offenders Law. The offender in this publication has indicated that he will be living in the unincorporated area of Yavapai County. It is the responsibility of the Chief Law Enforcement Office having jurisdiction where the offender resides to make notification to the community. Notification must be made when certain sex offenders are released from Arizona State prison, accepted under an interstate compact, or released from the county jail back into the community.

Sex Offenders are categorized into three levels: Level One (low risk to the community), Level Two (intermediate risk to the community) and Level Three (high risk to the community). The individual in this notification, Brandon Michael Wilson, 40, has been convicted of a Level Three sex offense (high risk to the community) which allows for community notification.
