Honeoye Falls Man Arrested For Failure To Register

Sheriff Thomas J. Dougherty reports the arrest of a Monroe County resident on felony charges following an  investigation by the Sheriff’s Office.  

On April 27th, 2023, Sheriff’s Investigator Connor Sanford arrested and charged Scott E. Proctor, age 47 from Honeoye Falls NY, with (1) count of felony Failure to Register and Verify as a New York State Registered Sex Offender.  

It is alleged by the investigation that Proctor, who is a level (2) New York State Registered Sex Offender, failed to provide  his change of address as required by law.  

The NYS Corrections Law section 168-F 4 states: Any sex offender shall register with the division no later than ten  calendar days after any change of address, internet accounts with internet access providers belonging to such offender,  internet identifiers that such offender uses, or his or her status of enrollment, attendance, employment or residence at  any institution of higher education. A fee of ten dollars, as authorized by subdivision eight of section one hundred sixty eight-b of this article, shall be submitted by the sex offender each time such offender registers any change of address or  any change of his or her status of enrollment, attendance, employment or residence at any institution of higher  education. 

Proctor was transported and turned over to Central Booking Deputies at the Livingston County Jail for arrest processing.  The District Attorney’s Office was contacted in regards to bail due to the felony level charge. It was recommended that  Proctor be released on his own recognizance, as the charge does not qualify for bail under the NYS Justice Reform Act. 

After processing Proctor was released on appearance ticket returnable on a future court date.
