Registry for repeat domestic violence offenders establishment
This bill establishes a public registry in Minnesota for repeat domestic violence offenders, requiring courts and correction officials to collect and submit offender information to the Department of Public Safety. The registry will include personal details such as names, addresses, photographs, and conviction records, with information published on a searchable public website and made available to law enforcement. Offenders must register for varying periods depending on their prior conviction history, ranging from five years for one prior offense to 20 years for four or more prior offenses, and failure to comply with registration requirements is a misdemeanor offense.
