Sex offender charged with failing to register his address

A sexual offender has been charged with a Class-C felony after allegedly failing to register his most recent address with police.

According to an Iowa City police complaint, Daniel McMahon, 22, a registered sex offender, was charged March 5 after police conducted an investigation into his address and concluded he had vacated that residence and allegedly failed to register a new one.

The complaint said the manager of McMahon’s last registered residence, 1601 Ridge St., said he no longer lived at the address. McMahon had allegedly failed to register his change of address with police. The complaint said police checked McMahon’s previous address as well, and he was not living there.

McMahon’s current whereabouts are unknown, according to the complaint.  

This is allegedly the second time McMahon has failed to register; he was convicted of first-offense failure to register on Dec. 22, 2010.

A sex-offender-verification violation is a Class-C felony.
