Relating to sex offenders.

SB 1009 creates a system to provide sex crime victims with specific information about offenders. It requires the Department of State Police to assign victims a unique identification number linked to the offender's registry record and establish a toll-free hotline for victims to receive updates on the offender's prison status, release, or parole. The bill defines "victim" broadly to include anyone directly harmed by the sex crime, or by related crimes connected through plea deals, sentencing, or admission of conduct (even without prosecution). This bill directly affects victims of sex crimes in Oregon by improving access to offender information through standardized procedures, without changing sentencing or registration requirements.
