In accordance with Colorado law, the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office is notifying the community that Kerry Eddie Gallegos has moved to an address in the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office jurisdiction.  Gallegos is a sex offender whose past behavior has led him to be labeled a “Sexually Violent Predator” (SVP) by the court.  Accordingly, the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office has made “community notification” as required by law and undertaken the following tasks, among others:

Notified the D.O.C. Sex Offender Management Board (SOMB) Notification Team.
Reviewed and confirmed Gallegos’ residence, employment, access to vehicles, legal status, and past crimes.
Made personal and/or mail notifications to neighbors and businesses deemed to be in the immediate area.
Briefed patrol personnel on Gallegos’ status, history, appearance, residence, employment and vehicles.
Notified surrounding law enforcement agencies.
Provided an Online video (www.epcsheriffsoffice.com) that describes the SVP community notification process, SVP information and additional resources for the community.

Gallegos’ criminal history reveals in 2004 he was convicted of Sexual Assault-Overcome Victim’s Will in El Paso County Colorado. Gallegos also has past convictions for Burglary, Criminal Mischief and Assault.

Gallegos is registered and residing at 1752 Ascot Road, Colorado Springs, CO 80906. Gallegos is described as a white male, 45 years old, 5’5” tall, 160 lbs, with brown hair and brown eyes.

Gallegos is one of two “Sexually Violent Predators” registered with the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office, who reside in this community. The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office takes Gallegos’ presence in our community very seriously and we are intent on insuring he conducts himself in a lawful manner and that our citizens remain safe and aware.

The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office will make all reasonable efforts to ensure that Gallegos registers as a sex offender and that he understands his responsibilities as such.  Anyone with further questions about this SVP and this Community Notification process can contact Detective Rachel Lamb of the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office Special Victims/Registered Sex Offender Unit at 719-520-7596.
