Police said Robert Dodero, who is homeless, is required to register weekly with the Kendall County Sheriff's Office. He's accused of violating the Illinois Sexual Offender Registration Act, according to police.
Dodero was convicted in 2007 in Cook County of unlawful possession of child pornography, police said. In 2012, he racked up another conviction, this time for failing to register as a sex offender in Kendall County.
Police said the new charges were secured on Nov. 27 after Dodero once again allegedly failed to register. His bond is set at $50,000.
Police are asking anyone with information on Dodero's location to contact the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office Investigations Section at (630) 553-7500 x1107, or Crimestoppers at (630) 553-5999.
