<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">To catch you up on this case, <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/kenneth-petty-reportedly-arrested-released-on-20k-bond-for-failing-to-register-as-a-sex-offender-in-california/">we reported earlier today</a> that Kenneth had turned himself in to U.S. Marshals, which stemmed from a previous arrest.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kenneth moved to California in July 2019. He was reportedly pulled over in Beverly Hills back in November, which was when authorities discovered he had not yet registered as a sex offender in the state, which is legally required of him.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He was arrested and released on a $20,000 bond but the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office charged him for failing to register.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Because he did not follow up with the court to register, he was arrested today. If convicted, Kenneth could receive up to 10 years in prison.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We’ll keep you posted on any updates in his case, Roommates.</span></p>
