Missing Something (A little strange)

I read a lot of articles about private citizens using legally owned firearms to defend themselves and their property. You have to make an effort to find them since it's one of the things the news media would rather not report even though it happens a couple of million times a year. I thought this one was a little strange since the would be burglar told police he had recently been released from prison for sexual assault. The article makes it sound like the police don't know anything about that. I thought law enforcement was supposed to be doing more now to keep track of sexual predators.
