Race/Sex:ย  White male
Height:ย  5’9″

Victim profile and modus operandi:ย  Etchison was required to register as a sex offender after being convicted for forcible sexual assaults on four teenage and young adult women in San Mateo County. Etchison offered one victim a ride and then forced her at knife point to orally copulate him. He assaulted three other young women, using force and threats, in a drive-in movie theater restroom, and forced them to orally copulate him.

Mr. Etchison was released from state custody in late December 2006. At this time, the Roseville Police Department has no legal authority to direct where this sex registrant may or may not live.ย Mr. Etchison has already served the sentence imposed by the courts for his criminal offenses.ย  He is not wanted at this time.

This notification is not intended to create fear, but is provided in the belief that an informed public is a safer public.  Use of this knowledge by citizens to drive registrants from their homes may lead to lack of compliance with registration laws, decreasing public safety.  Citizen abuse of this information to threaten, intimidate or harass registrants will not be tolerated.
