| 102 | s. 794.011 chapter 794, excluding s. ss. 794.011(10); s. 794.05 |
| 103 | and 794.0235; s. 796.03; s. 796.035; s. 800.04; s. |

| 105 | violation of a similar law of another jurisdiction, and the |
| 106 | offender has previously been convicted of or found to have |
| 107 | committed, or has pled nolo contendere or guilty to, regardless |
| 108 | of adjudication, any violation of s. 787.01, s. 787.02, or s. |
| 109 | 787.025(2)(c), where the victim is a minor and the defendant is |
| 110 | not the victim's parent or guardian; s. 794.011, excluding s. |
| 111 | 794.011(10) (2), (3), (4), (5), or (8); s. 794.05; s. 796.03; s. |

| 116 | 2. The offender has not received a pardon for any felony |
| 117 | or similar law of another jurisdiction that is necessary for the |
| 118 | operation of this paragraph; and |
| 119 | 3. A conviction of a felony or similar law of another |
| 120 | jurisdiction necessary to the operation of this paragraph has |
| 121 | not been set aside in any postconviction proceeding. |
| 122 | (c) If an offender has been registered as a sexual |
| 123 | predator by the Department of Corrections, the department, or |
| 124 | any other law enforcement agency and if: |
| 125 | 1. The court did not, for whatever reason, make a written |
| 126 | finding at the time of sentencing that the offender was a sexual |
| 127 | predator; or |
| 128 | 2. The offender was administratively registered as a |
| 129 | sexual predator because the Department of Corrections, the |
| 130 | department, or any other law enforcement agency obtained |
| 131 | information that indicated that the offender met the criteria |
| 132 | for designation as a sexual predator based on a violation of a |
| 133 | similar law in another jurisdiction, |
| 134 |
|
| 135 | the department shall remove that offender from the department's |
| 136 | list of sexual predators and, for an offender described under |
| 137 | subparagraph 1., shall notify the state attorney who prosecuted |
| 138 | the offense that met the criteria for administrative designation |
| 139 | as a sexual predator, and, for an offender described under this |
| 140 | paragraph subparagraph, shall notify the state attorney of the |
| 141 | county where the offender establishes or maintains a permanent |
| 142 | or temporary residence. The state attorney shall bring the |
| 143 | matter to the court's attention in order to establish that the |
| 144 | offender meets the criteria for designation as a sexual |
| 145 | predator. If the court makes a written finding that the offender |
| 146 | is a sexual predator, the offender must be designated as a |
| 147 | sexual predator, must register or be registered as a sexual |
| 148 | predator with the department as provided in subsection (6), and |
| 149 | is subject to the community and public notification as provided |
| 150 | in subsection (7). If the court does not make a written finding |
| 151 | that the offender is a sexual predator, the offender may not be |
| 152 | designated as a sexual predator with respect to that offense and |
| 153 | is not required to register or be registered as a sexual |
| 154 | predator with the department. |
| 155 | (6) REGISTRATION.-- |
| 156 | (a) A sexual predator must register with the department |
| 157 | through the sheriff's office by providing the following |
| 158 | information to the department: |

| 171 | department written notice of the vehicle identification number; |
| 172 | the license tag number; the registration number; and a |
| 173 | description, including color scheme, of the motor vehicle, |

| 175 | predator's place of residence is a vessel, live-aboard vessel, |
| 176 | or houseboat, as defined in chapter 327, the sexual predator |
| 177 | shall also provide to the department written notice of the hull |

| 186 | including each campus attended, and the sexual predator's |
| 187 | enrollment or employment status. Each change in enrollment or |
| 188 | employment status shall be reported in person at the sheriff's |
| 189 | office, or the Department of Corrections if the sexual predator |
| 190 | is in the custody or control of or under the supervision of the |
| 191 | Department of Corrections, within 48 hours after any change in |
| 192 | status. The sheriff or the Department of Corrections shall |
| 193 | promptly notify each institution of the sexual predator's |
| 194 | presence and any change in the sexual predator's enrollment or |
| 195 | employment status. |
| 196 | 2. Any other information determined necessary by the |
| 197 | department, including criminal and corrections records; |
| 198 | nonprivileged personnel and treatment records; and evidentiary |
| 199 | genetic markers when available. |
| 200 | (b) If the sexual predator is in the custody or control |
| 201 | of, or under the supervision of, the Department of Corrections, |
| 202 | or is in the custody of a private correctional facility, the |
| 203 | sexual predator must register with the Department of |
| 204 | Corrections. A sexual predator who is under the supervision of |
| 205 | the Department of Corrections but is not incarcerated must |
| 206 | register with the Department of Corrections within 3 business |
| 207 | days after the court finds the offender to be a sexual predator. |
| 208 | The Department of Corrections shall provide to the department |
| 209 | registration information and the location of, and local |
| 210 | telephone number for, any Department of Corrections office that |
| 211 | is responsible for supervising the sexual predator. In addition, |
| 212 | the Department of Corrections shall notify the department if the |
| 213 | sexual predator escapes or absconds from custody or supervision |
| 214 | or if the sexual predator dies. |
| 215 | (c) If the sexual predator is in the custody of a local |
| 216 | jail, the custodian of the local jail shall register the sexual |
| 217 | predator within 3 business days after intake of the sexual |
| 218 | predator for any reason and again upon release and forward the |
| 219 | registration information to the department. The custodian of the |
| 220 | local jail shall also take a digitized photograph of the sexual |
| 221 | predator while the sexual predator remains in custody and shall |
| 222 | provide the digitized photograph to the department. The |
| 223 | custodian shall notify the department if the sexual predator |
| 224 | escapes from custody or dies. |
| 225 | (e)1. If the sexual predator is not in the custody or |
| 226 | control of, or under the supervision of, the Department of |
| 227 | Corrections, or is not in the custody of a private correctional |
| 228 | facility, the sexual predator shall register in person: |
| 229 | a. At the sheriff's office in the county where he or she |
| 230 | establishes or maintains a residence within 48 hours after |
| 231 | establishing or maintaining a residence in the state; and |
| 232 | b. At the sheriff's office in the county where he or she |
| 233 | was designated a sexual predator by the court within 48 hours |
| 234 | after such finding is made. |
| 235 | 2. and establishes or maintains a residence in the state, |
| 236 | the sexual predator shall register in person at the sheriff's |
| 237 | office in the county in which the predator establishes or |
| 238 | maintains a residence, within 48 hours after establishing |
| 239 | permanent or temporary residence in this state. Any change in |
| 240 | the sexual predator's permanent or temporary residence or name, |
| 241 | after the sexual predator registers in person at the sheriff's |
| 242 | office as provided in subparagraph 1., shall be accomplished in |
| 243 | the manner provided in paragraphs (g), (i), and (j). When a |
| 244 | sexual predator registers with the sheriff's office, the sheriff |
| 245 | shall take a photograph and a set of fingerprints of the |
| 246 | predator and forward the photographs and fingerprints to the |
| 247 | department, along with the information that the predator is |
| 248 | required to provide pursuant to this section. |
| 249 | (l) A sexual predator must maintain registration with the |
| 250 | department for the duration of his or her life, unless the |
| 251 | sexual predator has received a full pardon or has had a |
| 252 | conviction set aside in a postconviction proceeding for any |
| 253 | offense that met the criteria for the sexual predator |
| 254 | designation. However, a sexual predator who was designated as a |
| 255 | sexual predator by a court before October 1, 1998, and who has |
| 256 | been lawfully released from confinement, supervision, or |
| 257 | sanction, whichever is later, for at least 10 years and has not |
| 258 | been arrested for any felony or misdemeanor offense since |
| 259 | release, may petition the criminal division of the circuit court |
| 260 | in the circuit in which the sexual predator resides for the |
| 261 | purpose of removing the sexual predator designation. A sexual |
| 262 | predator who was designated a sexual predator by a court on or |
| 263 | after October 1, 1998, who has been lawfully released from |
| 264 | confinement, supervision, or sanction, whichever is later, for |
| 265 | at least 20 years, and who has not been arrested for any felony |
| 266 | or misdemeanor offense since release may petition the criminal |
| 267 | division of the circuit court in the circuit in which the sexual |
| 268 | predator resides for the purpose of removing the sexual predator |
| 269 | designation. A sexual predator who was designated as a sexual |
| 270 | predator by a court on or after September 1, 2005, who has been |
| 271 | lawfully released from confinement, supervision, or sanction, |
| 272 | whichever is later, for at least 30 years, and who has not been |
| 273 | arrested for any felony or misdemeanor offense since release may |
| 274 | petition the criminal division of the circuit court in the |
| 275 | circuit in which the sexual predator resides for the purpose of |
| 276 | removing the sexual predator designation. The court may grant or |
| 277 | deny such relief if the petitioner demonstrates to the court |
| 278 | that he or she has not been arrested for any crime since |
| 279 | release, the requested relief complies with the provisions of |
| 280 | the federal Jacob Wetterling Act, as amended, and any other |
| 281 | federal standards applicable to the removal of the designation |
| 282 | as a sexual predator or required to be met as a condition for |
| 283 | the receipt of federal funds by the state, and the court is |
| 284 | otherwise satisfied that the petitioner is not a current or |
| 285 | potential threat to public safety. The state attorney in the |
| 286 | circuit in which the petition is filed must be given notice of |
| 287 | the petition at least 3 weeks before the hearing on the matter. |
| 288 | The state attorney may present evidence in opposition to the |
| 289 | requested relief or may otherwise demonstrate the reasons why |
| 290 | the petition should be denied. If the court denies the petition, |
| 291 | the court may set a future date at which the sexual predator may |
| 292 | again petition the court for relief, subject to the standards |
| 293 | for relief provided in this paragraph. Unless specified in the |
| 294 | order, a sexual predator who is granted relief under this |
| 295 | paragraph must comply with the requirements for registration as |
| 296 | a sexual offender and other requirements provided under s. |
| 297 | 943.0435 or s. 944.607. If a petitioner obtains an order from |
| 298 | the court that imposed the order designating the petitioner as a |
| 299 | sexual predator which removes such designation, the petitioner |
| 300 | shall forward a certified copy of the written findings or order |
| 301 | to the department in order to have the sexual predator |
| 302 | designation removed from the sexual predator registry. |
| 303 |
|
| 304 | The sheriff shall promptly provide to the department the |
| 305 | information received from the sexual predator. |
| 306 | (8) VERIFICATION.--The department and the Department of |
| 307 | Corrections shall implement a system for verifying the addresses |
| 308 | of sexual predators. The system must be consistent with the |
| 309 | provisions of the federal Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety |
| 310 | Act of 2006, Pub. L. No. 109-248, Jacob Wetterling Act, as |
| 311 | amended, and any other federal standards applicable to such |
| 312 | verification or required to be met as a condition for the |
| 313 | receipt of federal funds by the state. The Department of |
| 314 | Corrections shall verify the addresses of sexual predators who |
| 315 | are not incarcerated but who reside in the community under the |
| 316 | supervision of the Department of Corrections and shall report to |
| 317 | the department any failure by a sexual predator to comply with |
| 318 | registration requirements. County and local law enforcement |
| 319 | agencies, in conjunction with the department, shall verify the |
| 320 | addresses of sexual predators who are not under the care, |
| 321 | custody, control, or supervision of the Department of |
| 322 | Corrections. Local law enforcement agencies shall report to the |
| 323 | department any failure by a sexual predator to comply with |
| 324 | registration requirements. |
| 325 | (a) A sexual predator must report in person each year |
| 326 | during the month of the sexual predator's birthday and during |
| 327 | every third the sixth month thereafter following the sexual |
| 328 | predator's birth month to the sheriff's office in the county in |
| 329 | which he or she resides or is otherwise located to reregister. |
| 330 | The sheriff's office may determine the appropriate times and |
| 331 | days for reporting by the sexual predator, which shall be |
| 332 | consistent with the reporting requirements of this paragraph. |
| 333 | Reregistration shall include any changes to the following |
| 334 | information: |
| 335 | 1. Name; social security number; age; race; sex; date of |
| 336 | birth; height; weight; hair and eye color; address of any |
| 337 | permanent residence and address of any current temporary |
| 338 | residence, within the state or out of state, including a rural |
| 339 | route address and a post office box; date and place of any |
| 340 | employment; vehicle make, model, color, and license tag number; |
| 341 | fingerprints; and photograph. A post office box shall not be |
| 342 | provided in lieu of a physical residential address. |
| 343 | 2. If the sexual predator is enrolled, employed, or |
| 344 | carrying on a vocation at an institution of higher education in |
| 345 | this state, the sexual predator shall also provide to the |
| 346 | department the name, address, and county of each institution, |
| 347 | including each campus attended, and the sexual predator's |
| 348 | enrollment or employment status. |
| 349 | 3. If the sexual predator's place of residence is a motor |
| 350 | vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or manufactured home, as defined |
| 351 | in chapter 320, the sexual predator shall also provide the |
| 352 | vehicle identification number; the license tag number; the |
| 353 | registration number; and a description, including color scheme, |
| 354 | of the motor vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or manufactured |
| 355 | home. If the sexual predator's place of residence is a vessel, |
| 356 | live-aboard vessel, or houseboat, as defined in chapter 327, the |
| 357 | sexual predator shall also provide the hull identification |
| 358 | number; the manufacturer's serial number; the name of the |
| 359 | vessel, live-aboard vessel, or houseboat; the registration |
| 360 | number; and a description, including color scheme, of the |
| 361 | vessel, live-aboard vessel, or houseboat. |
| 362 | (b) The sheriff's office shall, within 2 working days, |
| 363 | electronically submit and update all information provided by the |
| 364 | sexual predator to the department in a manner prescribed by the |
| 365 | department. This procedure shall be implemented by December 1, |
| 366 | 2005. |
| 367 | (9) IMMUNITY.--The department, the Department of Highway |
| 368 | Safety and Motor Vehicles, the Department of Corrections, the |
| 369 | Department of Juvenile Justice, any law enforcement agency in |
| 370 | this state, and the personnel of those departments; an elected |
| 371 | or appointed official, public employee, or school administrator; |
| 372 | or an employee, agency, or any individual or entity acting at |
| 373 | the request or upon the direction of any law enforcement agency |
| 374 | is immune from civil liability for damages for good faith |
| 375 | compliance with the requirements of this section or for the |

| 377 | to have acted in good faith in compiling, recording, reporting, |
| 378 | or releasing the information. The presumption of good faith is |
| 379 | not overcome if a technical or clerical error is made by the |
| 380 | department, the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, |
| 381 | the Department of Corrections, the Department of Juvenile |
| 382 | Justice, the personnel of those departments, or any individual |
| 383 | or entity acting at the request or upon the direction of any of |
| 384 | those departments in compiling or providing information, or if |
| 385 | information is incomplete or incorrect because a sexual predator |
| 386 | fails to report or falsely reports his or her current place of |
| 387 | permanent or temporary residence. |
| 388 | (10) PENALTIES.-- |
| 389 | (b) A sexual predator who has been convicted of or found |
| 390 | to have committed, or has pled nolo contendere or guilty to, |
| 391 | regardless of adjudication, any violation, or attempted |
| 392 | violation, of s. 787.01, s. 787.02, or s. 787.025(2)(c), where |

| 785 | or disposition for the violation of s. 794.011 or s. 800.04 |
| 786 | occurred for removal of the requirement to register as a sexual |
| 787 | offender or sexual predator. The person must allege in the |

| 805 | requirement will not apply to the person and the department |
| 806 | shall remove all information about the person from the public |
| 807 | registry of sexual offenders and sexual predators maintained by |
| 808 | the department. However, the removal of this information from |
| 809 | the public registry does not mean that the public is denied |
| 810 | access to information about the person's criminal history or |
| 811 | record that is otherwise available as a public record. |

| 1111 | open to inspection by the public, but may be inspected only upon |
| 1112 | order of the court by persons deemed by the court to have a |
| 1113 | proper interest therein, except that a child and the parents, |
| 1114 | guardians, or legal custodians of the child and their attorneys, |
| 1115 | law enforcement agencies, the Department of Juvenile Justice and |
| 1116 | its designees, the Parole Commission, the Department of |
| 1117 | Corrections, and the Justice Administrative Commission shall |
| 1118 | always have the right to inspect and copy any official record |
| 1119 | pertaining to the child. The court may permit authorized |
| 1120 | representatives of recognized organizations compiling statistics |
| 1121 | for proper purposes to inspect, and make abstracts from, |
| 1122 | official records under whatever conditions upon the use and |
| 1123 | disposition of such records the court may deem proper and may |
| 1124 | punish by contempt proceedings any violation of those |
| 1125 | conditions. |
| 1126 | Section 12. Section 985.481, Florida Statutes, is created |
| 1127 | to read: |
| 1128 | 985.481 Sexual offenders adjudicated delinquent; |
| 1129 | notification upon release.-- |
| 1130 | (1) As used in this section: |
| 1131 | (a) "Convicted" has the same meaning as provided in s. |
| 1132 | 943.0435. |
| 1133 | (b) "Sexual offender" means a person who has been |
| 1134 | adjudicated delinquent as provided in s. 943.0435(1)(a)1.d. |
| 1135 | (2) The Legislature finds that certain juvenile sexual |
| 1136 | offenders pose a high risk of engaging in sexual offenses even |
| 1137 | after being released from commitment and that protection of the |
| 1138 | public from sexual offenders is a paramount governmental |
| 1139 | interest. Sexual offenders have a reduced expectation of privacy |
| 1140 | because of the public's interest in public safety and in the |
| 1141 | effective operation of government. Releasing sexual offender |
| 1142 | information to law enforcement agencies, to persons who request |
| 1143 | such information, and to the public by a law enforcement agency |
| 1144 | or public agency will further the governmental interests of |
| 1145 | public safety. |
| 1146 | (3)(a) The department must provide information regarding |
| 1147 | any sexual offender who is being released after serving a period |
| 1148 | of residential commitment under the department for any offense, |
| 1149 | as follows: |
| 1150 | 1. The department must provide the sexual offender's name, |
| 1151 | any change in the offender's name by reason of marriage or other |
| 1152 | legal process, and any alias, if known; the correctional |
| 1153 | facility from which the sexual offender is released; the sexual |
| 1154 | offender's social security number, race, sex, date of birth, |
| 1155 | height, weight, and hair and eye color; the date and county of |
| 1156 | disposition and each crime for which there was a disposition; a |
| 1157 | copy of the offender's fingerprints and a digitized photograph |
| 1158 | taken within 60 days before release; the date of release of the |
| 1159 | sexual offender; and the offender's intended residence address, |
| 1160 | if known. The department shall notify the Department of Law |
| 1161 | Enforcement if the sexual offender escapes, absconds, or dies. |
| 1162 | If the sexual offender is in the custody of a private |
| 1163 | correctional facility, the facility shall take the digitized |
| 1164 | photograph of the sexual offender within 60 days before the |
| 1165 | sexual offender's release and also place it in the sexual |
| 1166 | offender's file. If the sexual offender is in the custody of a |
| 1167 | local jail, the custodian of the local jail shall register the |
| 1168 | offender within 3 business days after intake of the offender for |
| 1169 | any reason and again upon release and notify the Department of |
| 1170 | Law Enforcement of the sexual offender's release and provide to |
| 1171 | the Department of Law Enforcement the information specified in |
| 1172 | this subparagraph and any information specified in subparagraph |
| 1173 | 2. that the Department of Law Enforcement requests. |
| 1174 | 2. The department may provide any other information deemed |
| 1175 | necessary, including criminal and delinquency records, when |
| 1176 | available. |
| 1177 | (b) The department must provide the information described |
| 1178 | in subparagraph (a)1. to the Department of Law Enforcement. No |
| 1179 | later than November 1, 2007, all such information provided to |
| 1180 | the Department of Law Enforcement must be available |
| 1181 | electronically as soon as the information is in the agency's |
| 1182 | database and must be in a format that is compatible with the |
| 1183 | requirements of the Florida Crime Information Center. |
| 1184 | (c) Upon receiving information regarding a sexual offender |
| 1185 | from the department, the Department of Law Enforcement, the |
| 1186 | sheriff, or the chief of police shall provide the information |
| 1187 | described in subparagraph (a)1. to any individual who requests |
| 1188 | such information and may release the information to the public |
| 1189 | in any manner deemed appropriate, unless the information so |
| 1190 | received is confidential or exempt from s. 119.07(1) and s. |
| 1191 | 24(a), Art. I of the State Constitution. |
| 1192 | (4) This section authorizes the department or any law |
| 1193 | enforcement agency to notify the community and the public of a |
| 1194 | sexual offender's presence in the community. However, with |
| 1195 | respect to a sexual offender who has been found to be a sexual |
| 1196 | predator under chapter 775, the Department of Law Enforcement or |
| 1197 | any other law enforcement agency must inform the community and |
| 1198 | the public of the sexual predator's presence in the community as |
| 1199 | provided in chapter 775. |
| 1200 | (5) An elected or appointed official, public employee, |
| 1201 | school administrator or employee, or agency, or any individual |
| 1202 | or entity acting at the request or upon the direction of any law |
| 1203 | enforcement agency, is immune from civil liability for damages |
| 1204 | resulting from the release of information under this section. |
| 1205 | Section 13. Section 985.4815, Florida Statutes, is created |
| 1206 | to read: |
| 1207 | 985.4815 Notification to Department of Law Enforcement of |
| 1208 | information on juvenile sexual offenders.-- |

| 1211 | commencement or termination of enrollment or employment or a |
| 1212 | change in location of enrollment or employment. |
| 1213 | (b) "Conviction" has the same meaning as provided in s. |
| 1214 | 943.0435. |
| 1215 | (c) "Institution of higher education" means a career |
| 1216 | center, community college, college, state university, or |
| 1217 | independent postsecondary institution. |
| 1218 | (d) "Sexual offender" means a person who is in the care or |
| 1219 | custody or under the jurisdiction or supervision of the |
| 1220 | department or is in the custody of a private correctional |
| 1221 | facility and who: |
| 1222 | 1. Has been adjudicated delinquent as provided in s. |
| 1223 | 943.0435(1)(a)1.d.; or |
| 1224 | 2. Establishes or maintains a residence in this state and |
| 1225 | has not been designated as a sexual predator by a court of this |
| 1226 | state but has been designated as a sexual predator, as a |

| 1228 | designation in another state or jurisdiction and was, as a |
| 1229 | result of such designation, subjected to registration or |
| 1230 | community or public notification, or both, or would be if the |
| 1231 | person were a resident of that state or jurisdiction, without |
| 1232 | regard to whether the person otherwise meets the criteria for |
| 1233 | registration as a sexual offender. |
| 1234 | (2) The clerk of the court that adjudicated and entered a |
| 1235 | disposition regarding the sexual offender for the offense or |
| 1236 | offenses for which he or she was convicted shall forward to the |
| 1237 | department and the Department of Law Enforcement a certified |
| 1238 | copy of any order entered by the court imposing any special |
| 1239 | condition or restriction on the sexual offender that restricts |
| 1240 | or prohibits access to the victim, if the victim is a minor, or |
| 1241 | to other minors. The Department of Law Enforcement may include |
| 1242 | on its Internet website such special conditions or restrictions. |
| 1243 | (3) If a sexual offender is not sentenced to a term of |
| 1244 | residential commitment, the clerk of the court shall ensure that |

| 1248 | clearly marked "Sexual Offender Registration Card." |
| 1249 | (4) A sexual offender, as described in this section, who |

| 1252 | adjudication and disposition for a registerable offense and |
| 1253 | otherwise provide information as required by this subsection. |
| 1254 | (a) The sexual offender shall provide his or her name; |
| 1255 | date of birth; social security number; race; sex; height; |

| 1257 | and permanent or legal residence and address of temporary |
| 1258 | residence within the state or out of state while the sexual |
| 1259 | offender is in the care or custody or under the jurisdiction or |
| 1260 | supervision of the department in this state, including any rural |
| 1261 | route address or post office box, and the name and address of |
| 1262 | each school attended. The department shall verify the address of |
| 1263 | each sexual offender and shall report to the Department of Law |
| 1264 | Enforcement any failure by a sexual offender to comply with |
| 1265 | registration requirements. |
| 1266 | (b) If the sexual offender is enrolled, employed, or |

| 1270 | and the sexual offender's enrollment or employment status. Each |
| 1271 | change in enrollment or employment status shall be reported to |
| 1272 | the department within 48 hours after the change in status. The |
| 1273 | department shall promptly notify each institution of the sexual |
| 1274 | offender's presence and any change in the sexual offender's |
| 1275 | enrollment or employment status. |
| 1276 | (5) In addition to notification and transmittal |
| 1277 | requirements imposed by any other provision of law, the |
| 1278 | department shall compile information on any sexual offender and |
| 1279 | provide the information to the Department of Law Enforcement. No |
| 1280 | later than November 1, 2007, the information shall be made |
| 1281 | available electronically to the Department of Law Enforcement as |
| 1282 | soon as this information is in the department's database and |
| 1283 | must be in a format that is compatible with the requirements of |
| 1284 | the Florida Crime Information Center. |
| 1285 | (6)(a) The information provided to the Department of Law |
| 1286 | Enforcement must include the following: |
| 1287 | 1. The information obtained from the sexual offender under |

| 1306 | that resulted in the determination of the offender's status as a |

| 1309 | must have been taken within 60 days before the offender was |
| 1310 | released from the custody of the department or a private |

| 1318 | Interstate Compact Agreement for Probationers and Parolees. If |
| 1319 | the sexual offender is in the custody of a private correctional |
| 1320 | facility, the facility shall take a digitized photograph of the |
| 1321 | sexual offender within the time period provided in this |
| 1322 | subparagraph and shall provide the photograph to the department. |
| 1323 | (b) If any information provided by the department changes |

| 1327 | process, the department shall, in a timely manner, update the |
| 1328 | information and provide it to the Department of Law Enforcement |
| 1329 | in the manner prescribed in subsection (5). |
| 1330 | (7) If the sexual offender is in the custody of a local |
| 1331 | jail, the custodian of the local jail shall register the |
| 1332 | offender within 3 business days after intake of the offender for |
| 1333 | any reason and again upon release and forward the information to |
| 1334 | the Department of Law Enforcement. The custodian of the local |
| 1335 | jail shall also take a digitized photograph of the sexual |
| 1336 | offender while the offender remains in custody and shall provide |
| 1337 | the digitized photograph to the Department of Law Enforcement. |
| 1338 | (8) If the sexual offender is under federal supervision, |
| 1339 | the federal agency responsible for supervising the sexual |
| 1340 | offender may forward to the Department of Law Enforcement any |
| 1341 | information regarding the sexual offender that is consistent |
| 1342 | with the information provided by the department under this |
| 1343 | section and may indicate whether use of the information is |
| 1344 | restricted to law enforcement purposes only or may be used by |
| 1345 | the Department of Law Enforcement for purposes of public |
| 1346 | notification. |
| 1347 | (9) A sexual offender, as described in this section, who |
| 1348 | is under the care, jurisdiction, or supervision of the |
| 1349 | department but who is not incarcerated shall, in addition to the |
| 1350 | registration requirements provided in subsection (4), register |
| 1351 | in the manner provided in s. 943.0435(3), (4), and (5), unless |
| 1352 | the sexual offender is a sexual predator, in which case he or |
| 1353 | she shall register as required under s. 775.21. A sexual |
| 1354 | offender who fails to comply with the requirements of s. |
| 1355 | 943.0435 is subject to the penalties provided in s. 943.0435(9). |
| 1356 | (10)(a) The failure of a sexual offender to submit to the |
| 1357 | taking of a digitized photograph, or to otherwise comply with |
| 1358 | the requirements of this section, is a felony of the third |
| 1359 | degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. |
| 1360 | 775.084. |
| 1361 | (b) A sexual offender who commits any act or omission in |
| 1362 | violation of this section may be prosecuted for the act or |
| 1363 | omission in the county in which the act or omission was |
| 1364 | committed, the county of the last registered address of the |
| 1365 | sexual offender, or the county in which the adjudication and |
| 1366 | disposition occurred for the offense or offenses that meet the |
| 1367 | criteria for designating a person as a sexual offender. |
| 1368 | (c) An arrest on charges of failure to register when the |
| 1369 | offender has been provided and advised of his or her statutory |
| 1370 | obligations to register under s. 943.0435(2), the service of an |
| 1371 | information or a complaint for a violation of this section, or |
| 1372 | an arraignment on charges for a violation of this section |
| 1373 | constitutes actual notice of the duty to register. A sexual |
| 1374 | offender's failure to immediately register as required by this |
| 1375 | section following such arrest, service, or arraignment |
| 1376 | constitutes grounds for a subsequent charge of failure to |
| 1377 | register. A sexual offender charged with the crime of failure to |
| 1378 | register who asserts, or intends to assert, a lack of notice of |
| 1379 | the duty to register as a defense to a charge of failure to |
| 1380 | register shall immediately register as required by this section. |
| 1381 | A sexual offender who is charged with a subsequent failure to |
| 1382 | register may not assert the defense of a lack of notice of the |
| 1383 | duty to register. |
| 1384 | (d) Registration following such arrest, service, or |
| 1385 | arraignment is not a defense and does not relieve the sexual |
| 1386 | offender of criminal liability for the failure to register. |
| 1387 | (11) The department, the Department of Highway Safety and |
| 1388 | Motor Vehicles, the Department of Law Enforcement, the |
| 1389 | Department of Corrections, personnel of those departments, and |
| 1390 | any individual or entity acting at the request or upon the |
| 1391 | direction of those departments are immune from civil liability |
| 1392 | for damages for good faith compliance with this section and |
| 1393 | shall be presumed to have acted in good faith in compiling, |
| 1394 | recording, reporting, or providing information. The presumption |
| 1395 | of good faith is not overcome if technical or clerical errors |
| 1396 | are made by the department, the Department of Highway Safety and |
| 1397 | Motor Vehicles, the Department of Law Enforcement, the |
| 1398 | Department of Corrections, personnel of those departments, or |
| 1399 | any individual or entity acting at the request or upon the |
| 1400 | direction of those departments in compiling, recording, |
| 1401 | reporting, or providing information, or, if the information is |
| 1402 | incomplete or incorrect because the information has not been |
| 1403 | provided by a person or agency required to provide it, was not |
| 1404 | reported, or was falsely reported. |
| 1405 | (12) Any person who has reason to believe that a sexual |
| 1406 | offender is not complying, or has not complied, with the |
| 1407 | requirements of this section and who, with the intent to assist |
| 1408 | the sexual offender in eluding a law enforcement agency that is |
| 1409 | seeking to find the sexual offender to question the sexual |
| 1410 | offender about, or to arrest the sexual offender for, his or her |
| 1411 | noncompliance with the requirements of this section: |
| 1412 | (a) Withholds information from, or does not notify, the |
| 1413 | law enforcement agency about the sexual offender's noncompliance |
| 1414 | with the requirements of this section and, if known, the |
| 1415 | whereabouts of the sexual offender; |
| 1416 | (b) Harbors, attempts to harbor, or assists another person |
| 1417 | in harboring or attempting to harbor the sexual offender; |
| 1418 | (c) Conceals, attempts to conceal, or assists another |
| 1419 | person in concealing or attempting to conceal the sexual |
| 1420 | offender; or |
| 1421 | (d) Provides information to the law enforcement agency |
| 1422 | regarding the sexual offender that the person knows to be false |
| 1423 |
|
| 1424 | commits a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in |
| 1425 | s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084. This subsection does not |
| 1426 | apply if the sexual offender is incarcerated in or is in the |
| 1427 | custody of a state correctional facility, a private correctional |
| 1428 | facility, a local jail, or a federal correctional facility. |
| 1429 | (13)(a) A sexual offender must report in person each year |
| 1430 | during the month of the sexual offender's birthday and during |
| 1431 | every third month thereafter to the sheriff's office in the |
| 1432 | county in which he or she resides or is otherwise located to |
| 1433 | reregister. |
| 1434 | (b) The sheriff's office may determine the appropriate |
| 1435 | times and days for reporting by the sexual offender, which shall |
| 1436 | be consistent with the reporting requirements of this |
| 1437 | subsection. Reregistration shall include any changes to the |
| 1438 | following information: |
| 1439 | 1. Name; social security number; age; race; sex; date of |
| 1440 | birth; height; weight; hair and eye color; address of any |
| 1441 | permanent residence and address of any current temporary |
| 1442 | residence, within the state or out of state, including a rural |
| 1443 | route address and a post office box; name and address of each |
| 1444 | school attended; date and place of any employment; vehicle make, |
| 1445 | model, color, and license tag number; fingerprints; and |
| 1446 | photograph. A post office box shall not be provided in lieu of a |
| 1447 | physical residential address. |
| 1448 | 2. If the sexual offender is enrolled, employed, or |
| 1449 | carrying on a vocation at an institution of higher education in |
| 1450 | this state, the sexual offender shall also provide to the |
| 1451 | department the name, address, and county of each institution, |
| 1452 | including each campus attended, and the sexual offender's |
| 1453 | enrollment or employment status. |
| 1454 | 3. If the sexual offender's place of residence is a motor |
| 1455 | vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or manufactured home, as defined |
| 1456 | in chapter 320, the sexual offender shall also provide the |

| 1467 | 4. Any sexual offender who fails to report in person as |
| 1468 | required at the sheriff's office, or who fails to respond to any |
| 1469 | address verification correspondence from the department within 3 |
| 1470 | weeks after the date of the correspondence, commits a felony of |
| 1471 | the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. |
| 1472 | 775.083, and s. 775.084. |
| 1473 | (c) The sheriff's office shall, within 2 working days, |
