On Friday, authorities arrested Moore for probation violation after he refused to comply with an order to move for creating a public nuisance
A convicted pedophile has been arrested after setting up a homeless camp outside of a San Francisco school with a sign offering 'free fentanyl 4 new users'.
Adam Moore, 46, set up an encampment across from Stella Maris Academy in the embattled California city over two years ago.
Moore had been stationed outside the school with signs offering free drugs, with one reading: 'Free fentanyl 4 new users' and another saying 'Meth for stolen items'.
Speaking to ABC7, Moore insisted that the sign was not a ruse - and he was actively handing out the killer drug.
Moore told the outlet, 'It's not a joke' and said he would pass on the drugs that other people gave him in exchange for supplies he provides.
According to California's Megan's Law website, Moore was convicted of lewd of lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14 in 1997 and released in 2002.
The San Francisco Standard reported that according to court documents he has been arrested five times in the city since 2007 for allegedly failing to re-register his address as a sex offender every 30 days.
According to a Santa Cruz Sentinel article from 1997, Moore was convicted of molesting a 12-year-old girl in Santa Clara County before being released from custody and then having sex with a 15-year-old in Santa Cruz.
Moore also told ABC7: 'So they bring me trash that they've scavenged, things that they think are valuable, or they give me some of the drugs that they have, which I don't do.
'I only live by two rules: be kind to others and make it look easy for children.'
Moore is not considered a 'high-risk' offender so he does not have to stay 2,000 feet away from a school.
Neighbor Jon Chintanaroad told the outlet: 'My wife walks our baby around by herself. I always kind of want to be there because you never know.
'And it just sucks to always kind of have that sense of like, extra vigilance. In a neighborhood that's supposed to be quiet and residential.'
On Friday afternoon, Moore was taken into custody after officers gave him an order to move.
According to California's Megan's Law website, Moore was convicted of lewd of lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14 in 1997 and released in 2002
Officers with the San Francisco Police Department arrived at the site in the morning and told Moore to clear by 12:15pm, which he failed to do, according to NBC.
Following his arrest, his belongings were bagged up and removed by workers.
Peter Marlow, a spokesperson for the Archdiocese of San Francisco said: 'Our goal was to get the signs down and to maintain the safety of the children and the neighborhood, and that seems to have been accomplished.
'We’re working with the police to see that any laws affecting that are carried out.'
