The New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services issued an alert this week to Suffolk County residents regarding the residency of 64-year-old Martie Starks, who has moved to a residence on Great Neck Road in Amityville.

The Division of Criminal Justice Services has assigned Starks as a Level 3 threat, which means he is a “high-risk repeat offender and possible threat to public safety.” He has also been designated as a sexually violent sex offender.

According to the Division of Criminal Justice Services, Starks had sexual intercourse with a minor under the age of 11 in June 1990. Starks was convicted of a lewd act of a child in December that year and sentenced to two years in jail. He is now under the jurisdiction of the Suffolk County Police Department's SOR Unit.
