Reportedly, issues over him not properly registering may have begun last year. Reportedly, he got pulled over for a traffic stop in 2019 in California. At this time, he was residing in California, having moved from New York and it was discovered that he had not registered as a sex offender. Registering as a sex offender is required. At this time, he was reportedly arrested and released on bond, but he was charged with failing to register.

It is reported that he did not register and was indicted in federal court for not registering. Kenneth Petty turned himself into the Marshal and will see a judge at some point.
