Establishes the "Missouri Domestic Abuse Offender Registration Act"
HB 1337 requires individuals convicted of domestic abuse offenses (such as domestic assault, stalking, or harassment) in Missouri to register with the state's Department of Public Safety within 48 hours of conviction or release. Registrants must provide personal details like name, addresses, employment, and vehicle information, updating changes within five days, and maintain registration for five years (potentially longer based on risk). The bill establishes a confidential database accessible only to law enforcement for safety investigations, with penalties including fines and imprisonment for non-compliance (misdemeanor for first offense, felony for repeat). This directly affects convicted domestic abuse offenders, not the general public.
