Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding address verification and registration of sexual offenders.

SEXUAL OFFENDER REGISTRATION -- Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding address verification and registration of sexual offenders.

SEXUAL OFFENDER REGISTRATION

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

To accommodate more frequent postal delays, this bill changes deadlines to seven days for required actions after a one-way mailing from the Sex Offender Registry (see amendment to Section 18-8307(5)(c)) and to 14 days to receive and mail back a required address verification (see amendments to Sections 18-8308(1)(b) and 18-8308(2)(b)). Currently, when an address verification is not returned seven days after the registry’s mailing, the registry is required to notify the local sheriff to check on the individual. Postal delays are requiring the registry to ask sheriffs to check on individuals much more frequently than in the past because of the delay in the verification returning in the mail to the registry on time.
