sex offender registration; convicted; definition
HB 2602 clarifies and expands Arizona's sex offender registration requirements by defining which offenses trigger mandatory registration. It specifies that individuals convicted of 22 specific crimes - including child sexual abuse, trafficking, molestation, and repeated indecent exposure involving minors - must register with local sheriffs within 72 hours of release or arrival in the state. The bill also requires out-of-state offenders working or studying in Arizona for extended periods to register, and it details the information they must provide (like vehicle details and school enrollment). This update standardizes registration obligations under existing law without creating new penalties or altering registration durations.
