Establishes publicly accessible domestic violence Internet registry.
S 2489 creates a publicly accessible online registry for specific domestic violence cases, allowing anyone to search the database. It includes detailed information for individuals convicted of domestic violence-related homicide, sexual assault, or aggravated assault (such as name, aliases, offense details, physical description, vehicle info, and residence), but excludes most restraining orders. The registry must include warnings about misuse, accuracy statements, and require the Attorney General to maintain data integrity. Using the information to threaten, harass, or commit crimes carries penalties including fines up to $1,000 or third-degree criminal charges.
