Existing law, the Sex Offender Registration Act, requires persons convicted of specified sex offenses, or attempts to commit those offenses, to register with local law enforcement agencies while residing in the state or while attending school or working in the state. Existing law requires the terms of probation or parole for all persons placed on formal probation or parole for an offense that requires registration as a sex offender to include, among other things, participation in, or completion of, a sex offender management program, as specified. Existing law requires the Department of Justice to make available to the public information concerning registered sex offenders on an Internet Web site, as specified. Existing law also authorizes a person registered as a sex offender to file an application for exclusion for the Internet Web site and establishes the requirements for exclusion.

This bill would require a person who is convicted of soliciting a minor to register as a sex offender. This bill would require a court that grants probation to or suspends the imposition of a sentence for a person convicted of soliciting a minor to require participation in a sex offender management program as a condition of probation or the suspension of imposition of the person’s sentence. This bill would require the department to make available to the public specified information regarding the person on that Internet Web site. This bill would authorize the person to apply for exclusion from the Internet Web site described above if the person has satisfied all conditions of probation or suspension of imposition of his or her sentence and has not been convicted of any other offense requiring registration as a sex offender in a 5-year period following satisfaction of those conditions.
