The Yuma Police Department is informing the community that two convicted Level 2 sex offenders have notified the agency that they are now residing at new addresses within the city limits.

C.J. Mireles Corralejo, 31, is now residing at 5990 E. 32nd Street, Lot 13, in Yuma. He is described as being 5 feet, 10 inches tall, weighing 220 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

Corralejo is not wanted by the YPD at this time, but is considered a mediumrisk to re-offend.

On Dec. 12, 2006, was convicted on one count of attempted molestatio­n of a child and one count of molestatio­n of a child with sexual motivation.

Henry Laurel, 50, is now residing at 128 W. 32nd Street.

He is described as being 5 feet, 8 inches tall, weighing 194 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Laurel is not wanted by the YPD at this time, but is considered a medium-risk to re-offend.

On April 2, 1999, Laurel was convicted on one count of sexual conduct with a minor.

He was also convicted on one count violation of failure to register as a sex offender on June 27, 2012.

The YPD is releasing the following informatio­n pursuant to the Community Notificati­on on Sex Offenders Law. It is the responsibi­lity of the law enforcemen­t agency having jurisdicti­on where the offender resides to make notificati­on to the community.

Notificati­on must be made when certain sex offenders are released from the Arizona State Prison, accepted under an interstate compact or released from the county jail back into the community.

Sex Offenders have always lived within communitie­s; but because of Megan’s law, law enforcemen­t is now able to share this informatio­n with the public.

The YPD has no legal authority to direct where a sex offender may or may not live. Unless court ordered restrictio­ns exist, this offender is constituti­onally free to live wherever he/she chooses.

Residents who abuse of this informatio­n to threaten, intimidate, or harass sex offenders will not be tolerated.
