Operation Dove Watch
- 05/21/26
Operation Dove Watch was a multi-agency operation consisting of the Keizer Police Department, the United States Marshal Service and the Oregon State Police Sex Offender Registration Section. The operation took place on Thursday May 14, 2026.
Teams of officers focused on sex offenders living within the City of Keizer who met one or more of the following criteria:
- Non-compliant offenders who missed one or more reporting requirements
- Offenders who were compliant but had serviceable warrants
- All Level 3 offenders
- Compliant offenders who had federal/military/tribal sex crime convictions
- Compliant offenders with multiple sex crime convictions/adjudications
Through a pre-screening process, 232 offenders were audited and 75 were identified and selected to be targeted in this operation. Upon completion, 8 individuals were identified as being out of compliance with registration laws.
The eight non-compliant individuals were arrested and lodged at the Marion County Correctional Facility for Failing to Report as a Sex Offender- missing annual reporting requirement. An exception was made in one case where health issues prevented the transportation and lodging; this individual was issued a citation to appear and released. The eight individuals were all identified as being low to moderate risk for reoffending.
We want to thank our partners, the United States Marshal Service, the Oregon State Police Sex Offender Registration Section and the Willamette Valley Communications Center, for their support in helping the Keizer Police Department keep the City of Keizer a safe and livable community.
