SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Sex offenses requiring registration. Clarifies the registration and reregistration obligations imposed upon a person convicted of a foreign sex offense for the purposes of registration with the Sex Offender and Crimes Against Minors Registry. The bill also provides that a person who is required to register may not petition the circuit court for the removal of his name and all identifying information from the Registry if such person was convicted of two or more offenses for which registration is required and was at liberty between such convictions. Under current law, a person does not need to be at liberty between such convictions and would be prohibited from petitioning for removal from the Registry.
