Establishes the "Missouri Domestic Abuse Offender Registration and Accountability Act"
HB 2892 requires high-risk domestic abuse offenders (those with two prior convictions or a high recidivism risk assessment) to register with Missouri’s Department of Public Safety within 72 hours of conviction or release. Offenders must provide personal details like addresses, employment, and vehicle information, updating within 10 days of changes, with registration lasting five years after sentence completion. The confidential registry is accessible only to law enforcement for safety planning, not the public, and includes penalties for non-compliance (fines for first violations, misdemeanor charges for repeat offenses). The program expires after six years unless reauthorized by the legislature, with biennial reports required to assess effectiveness and recidivism rates.
