Sex offender slips off monitoring device

A registered sex offender remains at large after he removed a monitoring device two years ago and stopped contacting his parole agent, officials said.

Regaberto Lopez, 50, is now wanted for being a non-compliant sex offender, according to the Riverside County District Attorney's Office.

He was identified as this week's Riverside County Most Wanted fugitive.

Lopez was charged with rape in Palm Springs in January 2003.

He was convicted of sexual battery charges and sentenced to four years in prison.

Upon his release, officials said, he registered as a sex offender and wore a monitoring device strapped to his ankle.

In August 2007, however, he removed the device and fled, officials said.

Lopez has not complied with any of his registration requirements as a sex offender, according to the district attorney's office.

He remains at large.
