  132  States, and includes a conviction or entry of a plea of guilty
  133  or nolo contendere resulting in a sanction in any state of the

  136  conditional release, control release, or incarceration in a

  156  social security number, PIN personal identification number

  222  coregistered, leased, titled, or rented by a person or persons
  223  residing at a sexual predator’s or sexual offender’s permanent
  224  residence for 5 or more consecutive days.
  225         (3) LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS AND PURPOSE; LEGISLATIVE INTENT.—
  226         (a) Repeat sexual offenders, sexual offenders who use
  227  physical violence, and sexual offenders who prey on children are
  228  sexual predators who present an extreme threat to the public
  229  safety. Sexual offenders are extremely likely to use physical
  230  violence and to repeat their offenses, and most sexual offenders
  231  commit many offenses, have many more victims than are ever
  232  reported, and are prosecuted for only a fraction of their
  233  crimes. This makes the cost of sexual offender victimization to
  234  society at large, while incalculable, clearly exorbitant.
  235         (b) The high level of threat that a sexual predator
  236  presents to the public safety, and the long-term effects
  237  suffered by victims of sex offenses, provide the state with
  238  sufficient justification to implement a strategy that includes:
  239         1. Incarcerating sexual predators and maintaining adequate
  240  facilities to ensure that decisions to release sexual predators
  241  into the community are not made on the basis of inadequate
  242  space.
  243         2. Providing for specialized supervision of sexual
  244  predators who are in the community by specially trained
  245  probation officers with low caseloads, as described in ss.
  246  947.1405(7) and 948.30. The sexual predator is subject to
  247  specified terms and conditions implemented at sentencing or at
  248  the time of release from incarceration, with a requirement that
  249  those who are financially able must pay all or part of the costs
  250  of supervision.
  251         3. Requiring the registration of sexual predators, with a
  252  requirement that complete and accurate information be maintained
  253  and accessible for use by law enforcement authorities,
  254  communities, and the public.
  255         4. Providing for community and public notification
  256  concerning the presence of sexual predators.
  257         5. Prohibiting sexual predators from working with children,
  258  either for compensation or as a volunteer.
  259         (c) The state has a compelling interest in protecting the
  260  public from sexual predators and in protecting children from
  261  predatory sexual activity, and there is sufficient justification
  262  for requiring sexual predators to register and for requiring
  263  community and public notification of the presence of sexual
  264  predators.
  265         (d) It is the purpose of the Legislature that, upon the
  266  court’s written finding that an offender is a sexual predator,
  267  in order to protect the public, it is necessary that the sexual
  268  predator be registered with the department and that members of
  269  the community and the public be notified of the sexual
  270  predator’s presence. The designation of a person as a sexual
  271  predator is neither a sentence nor a punishment but simply a
  272  status resulting from the conviction of certain crimes.
  273         (e) It is the intent of the Legislature to address the
  274  problem of sexual predators by:
  275         1. Requiring sexual predators supervised in the community
  276  to have special conditions of supervision and to be supervised
  277  by probation officers with low caseloads;
  278         2. Requiring sexual predators to register with the Florida
  279  department of Law Enforcement, as provided in this section; and
  280         3. Requiring community and public notification of the
  281  presence of a sexual predator, as provided in this section.
  282         (4) SEXUAL PREDATOR CRITERIA.—
  283         (a) For a current offense committed on or after October 1,

  303  subparagraph with sexual intent or motive; s. 916.1075(2); or s.
  304  985.701(1); or a violation of a similar law of another
  305  jurisdiction, and the offender has previously been convicted of
  306  or found to have committed, or has pled nolo contendere or
  307  guilty to, regardless of adjudication, any violation of s.
  308  393.135(2); s. 394.4593(2); s. 787.01, s. 787.02, or s.
  309  787.025(2)(c), where the victim is a minor; s. 787.06(3)(b),
  310  (d), (f), or (g); former s. 787.06(3)(h); s. 794.011, excluding
  311  s. 794.011(10); s. 794.05; former s. 796.03; former s. 796.035;
  312  s. 800.04; s. 825.1025; s. 827.071; s. 847.0133; s. 847.0135,
  313  excluding s. 847.0135(6); s. 847.0145; s. 895.03, if the court
  314  makes a written finding that the racketeering activity involved
  315  at least one sexual offense listed in this sub-subparagraph or
  316  at least one offense listed in this sub-subparagraph with sexual
  317  intent or motive; s. 916.1075(2); or s. 985.701(1); or a
  318  violation of a similar law of another jurisdiction;
  319         2. The offender has not received a pardon for any felony or
  320  similar law of another jurisdiction that is necessary for the
  321  operation of this paragraph; and
  322         3. A conviction of a felony or similar law of another
  323  jurisdiction necessary to the operation of this paragraph has

  327  conviction sentenced separately, or an adjudication of
  328  delinquency entered separately, prior to the current offense and
  329  sentenced or adjudicated separately from any other felony

  331  the date of offense of the prior felony.
  332         (c) If an offender has been registered as a sexual predator
  333  by the Department of Corrections, the department, or any other
  334  law enforcement agency and if:
  335         1. The court did not, for whatever reason, make a written
  336  finding at the time of sentencing that the offender was a sexual
  337  predator; or
  338         2. The offender was administratively registered as a sexual
  339  predator because the Department of Corrections, the department,
  340  or any other law enforcement agency obtained information that
  341  indicated that the offender met the criteria for designation as
  342  a sexual predator based on a violation of a similar law in
  343  another jurisdiction,
  344  
  345  the department shall remove that offender from the department’s
  346  list of sexual predators and, for an offender described under
  347  subparagraph 1., shall notify the state attorney who prosecuted
  348  the offense that met the criteria for administrative designation
  349  as a sexual predator, and, for an offender described under this
  350  paragraph, shall notify the state attorney of the county where
  351  the offender establishes or maintains a permanent, temporary, or
  352  transient residence. The state attorney shall bring the matter
  353  to the court’s attention in order to establish that the offender
  354  meets the criteria for designation as a sexual predator. If the
  355  court makes a written finding that the offender is a sexual
  356  predator, the offender must be designated as a sexual predator,
  357  must register or be registered as a sexual predator with the
  358  department as provided in subsection (6), and is subject to the

  360  If the court does not make a written finding that the offender
  361  is a sexual predator, the offender may not be designated as a
  362  sexual predator with respect to that offense and is not required
  363  to register or be registered as a sexual predator with the
  364  department.
  365         (d) An offender who has been determined to be a sexually
  366  violent predator pursuant to a civil commitment proceeding under
  367  chapter 394 shall be designated as a “sexual predator” under
  368  subsection (5) and subject to registration under subsection (6)
  369  and community and public notification under subsection (7).
  370         (5) SEXUAL PREDATOR DESIGNATION.—An offender is designated
  371  as a sexual predator as follows:
  372         (a)1. An offender who meets the sexual predator criteria
  373  described in paragraph (4)(d) is a sexual predator, and the
  374  court shall make a written finding at the time such offender is
  375  determined to be a sexually violent predator under chapter 394
  376  that such person meets the criteria for designation as a sexual
  377  predator for purposes of this section. The clerk shall transmit
  378  a copy of the order containing the written finding to the
  379  department within 48 hours after the entry of the order;
  380         2. An offender who meets the sexual predator criteria
  381  described in paragraph (4)(a) who is before the court for
  382  sentencing for a current offense committed on or after October
  383  1, 1993, is a sexual predator, and the sentencing court must
  384  make a written finding at the time of sentencing that the
  385  offender is a sexual predator, and the clerk of the court shall
  386  transmit a copy of the order containing the written finding to
  387  the department within 48 hours after the entry of the order; or
  388         3. If the Department of Corrections, the department, or any
  389  other law enforcement agency obtains information which indicates
  390  that an offender who establishes or maintains a permanent,
  391  temporary, or transient residence in this state meets the sexual
  392  predator criteria described in paragraph (4)(a) or paragraph
  393  (4)(d) because the offender was civilly committed or committed a
  394  similar violation in another jurisdiction on or after October 1,
  395  1993, the Department of Corrections, the department, or the law
  396  enforcement agency shall notify the state attorney of the county
  397  where the offender establishes or maintains a permanent,
  398  temporary, or transient residence of the offender’s presence in
  399  the community. The state attorney shall file a petition with the
  400  criminal division of the circuit court for the purpose of
  401  holding a hearing to determine if the offender’s criminal record
  402  or record of civil commitment from another jurisdiction meets
  403  the sexual predator criteria. If the court finds that the
  404  offender meets the sexual predator criteria because the offender
  405  has violated a similar law or similar laws in another
  406  jurisdiction, the court shall make a written finding that the
  407  offender is a sexual predator.
  408  
  409  When the court makes a written finding that an offender is a
  410  sexual predator, the court shall inform the sexual predator of
  411  the registration and community and public notification
  412  requirements described in this section. Within 48 hours after
  413  the court designates designating an offender as a sexual
  414  predator, the clerk of the circuit court shall transmit a copy
  415  of the court’s written sexual predator finding to the
  416  department. If the offender is sentenced to a term of
  417  imprisonment or supervision, a copy of the court’s written
  418  sexual predator finding must be submitted to the Department of
  419  Corrections.
  420         (b) If a sexual predator is not sentenced to a term of
  421  imprisonment, the clerk of the court shall ensure that the
  422  sexual predator’s fingerprints are taken and forwarded to the
  423  department within 48 hours after the court renders its written
  424  sexual predator finding. The fingerprints shall be clearly
  425  marked, “Sexual Predator Registration.” The clerk of the court
  426  that convicts and sentences the sexual predator for the offense
  427  or offenses described in subsection (4) shall forward to the
  428  department and to the Department of Corrections a certified copy
  429  of any order entered by the court imposing any special condition
  430  or restriction on the sexual predator that restricts or
  431  prohibits access to the victim, if the victim is a minor, or to
  432  other minors.
  433         (c) If the Department of Corrections, the department, or
  434  any other law enforcement agency obtains information which
  435  indicates that an offender meets the sexual predator criteria
  436  but the court did not make a written finding that the offender
  437  is a sexual predator as required in paragraph (a), the
  438  Department of Corrections, the department, or the law
  439  enforcement agency shall notify the state attorney who
  440  prosecuted the offense for offenders described in subparagraph
  441  (a)1., or the state attorney of the county where the offender
  442  establishes or maintains a residence upon first entering the
  443  state for offenders described in subparagraph (a)3. The state
  444  attorney shall bring the matter to the court’s attention in
  445  order to establish that the offender meets the sexual predator
  446  criteria. If the state attorney fails to establish that an
  447  offender meets the sexual predator criteria and the court does
  448  not make a written finding that an offender is a sexual
  449  predator, the offender is not required to register with the
  450  department as a sexual predator. The Department of Corrections,
  451  the department, or any other law enforcement agency shall not
  452  administratively designate an offender as a sexual predator
  453  without a written finding from the court that the offender is a
  454  sexual predator.
  455         (d) A person who establishes or maintains a residence in
  456  this state and who has not been designated as a sexual predator
  457  by a court of this state but who has been designated as a sexual
  458  predator, as a sexually violent predator, or any other by
  459  another sexual offender designation in another state or
  460  jurisdiction and was, as a result of such designation, subjected
  461  to registration or community or public notification, or both, or
  462  would be if the person was a resident of that state or
  463  jurisdiction, without regard to whether the person otherwise
  464  meets the criteria for registration as a sexual offender, shall
  465  register in the manner provided in s. 943.0435 or s. 944.607 and
  466  shall be subject to community and public notification as
  467  provided in s. 943.0435 or s. 944.607. A person who meets the
  468  criteria of this section is subject to the requirements and
  469  penalty provisions of s. 943.0435 or s. 944.607 until the person
  470  provides the department with an order issued by the court that
  471  designated the person as a sexual predator, as a sexually
  472  violent predator, or any other by another sexual offender
  473  designation in the state or jurisdiction in which the order was
  474  issued which states that such designation has been removed or
  475  demonstrates to the department that such designation, if not
  476  imposed by a court, has been removed by operation of law or
  477  court order in the state or jurisdiction in which the
  478  designation was made, and provided that such person no longer
  479  meets the criteria for registration as a sexual offender under
  480  the laws of this state. To qualify for removal of the
  481  registration requirements under this paragraph, a sexual
  482  offender described in this paragraph must meet the criteria for
  483  removal under s. 943.0435.

  752  corresponding website homepage or application software name, to
  753  the Department of Corrections before using such electronic mail
  754  addresses or Internet identifiers. If the sexual predator is in
  755  the custody or control, or under the supervision, of the
  756  Department of Juvenile Justice, he or she must report all
  757  electronic mail addresses and Internet identifiers, and each
  758  Internet identifier’s corresponding website homepage or
  759  application software name, to the Department of Juvenile Justice
  760  before using such electronic mail addresses or Internet
  761  identifiers.
  762         b. A sexual predator shall register all changes to vehicles
  763  owned, all changes to home telephone numbers and cellular
  764  telephone numbers, including added and deleted numbers, all
  765  changes to employment information, and all changes in status
  766  related to enrollment, volunteering, or employment at
  767  institutions of higher education, through the department’s
  768  online system; in person at the sheriff’s office; in person at
  769  the Department of Corrections if the sexual predator is in the
  770  custody or control, or under the supervision, of the Department
  771  of Corrections; or in person at the Department of Juvenile
  772  Justice if the sexual predator is in the custody or control, or
  773  under the supervision, of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
  774  All changes required to be reported in this sub-subparagraph
  775  shall be reported within 48 hours after the change.
  776         c. The department shall establish an online system through
  777  which sexual predators may securely access, submit, and update
  778  all vehicles owned; electronic mail addresses; Internet
  779  identifiers and each Internet identifier’s corresponding website
  780  homepage or application software name; home telephone numbers
  781  and cellular telephone numbers; employment information; and
  782  institution of higher education information.
  783         (h) The department shall notify the sheriff and the state
  784  attorney of the county and, if applicable, the police chief of
  785  the municipality, where the sexual predator maintains a
  786  residence.
  787         (i) A sexual predator who intends to establish a permanent,
  788  temporary, or transient residence in another state or
  789  jurisdiction other than the State of Florida shall report in
  790  person to the sheriff of the county of current residence at
  791  least within 48 hours before the date he or she intends to leave
  792  this state to establish residence in another state or
  793  jurisdiction or at least 21 days before the date he or she
  794  intends to travel if the intended residence of 5 days or more is
  795  outside of the United States. Any travel that is not known by
  796  the sexual predator 48 hours before he or she intends to
  797  establish a residence in another state or jurisdiction, or 21
  798  days before the departure date for travel outside of the United
  799  States, must be reported to the sheriff’s office as soon as
  800  possible before departure. The sexual predator shall provide to
  801  the sheriff the address, municipality, county, state, and
  802  country of intended residence. For international travel, the
  803  sexual predator shall also provide travel information,
  804  including, but not limited to, expected departure and return
  805  dates, flight number, airport of departure, cruise port of
  806  departure, or any other means of intended travel. The sheriff
  807  shall promptly provide to the department the information
  808  received from the sexual predator. The department shall notify
  809  the statewide law enforcement agency, or a comparable agency, in
  810  the intended state, jurisdiction, or country of residence or the
  811  intended country of travel of the sexual predator’s intended
  812  residence or intended travel. The failure of a sexual predator
  813  to provide his or her intended place of residence or intended
  814  travel is punishable as provided in subsection (10).
  815         (j) A sexual predator who indicates his or her intent to
  816  establish a permanent, temporary, or transient residence in
  817  another state, a jurisdiction other than the State of Florida,
  818  or intent to travel to another country, and later decides to
  819  remain in this state shall, within 48 hours after the date upon
  820  which the sexual predator indicated he or she would leave this
  821  state, report in person to the sheriff’s office sheriff to which
  822  the sexual predator reported the intended change of residence or
  823  intended international travel, and report his or her intent to
  824  remain in this state. If the sheriff is notified by the sexual
  825  predator that he or she intends to remain in this state, the
  826  sheriff shall promptly report this information to the
  827  department. A sexual predator who reports his or her intent to
  828  establish a permanent, temporary, or transient residence in
  829  another state, a jurisdiction other than the State of Florida,
  830  or intent to travel to another country, but who remains in this
  831  state without reporting to the sheriff in the manner required by
  832  this paragraph, commits a felony of the second degree,
  833  punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
  834         (k)1. The department is responsible for the online
  835  maintenance of current information regarding each registered
  836  sexual predator. The department shall maintain hotline access
  837  for state, local, and federal law enforcement agencies to obtain
  838  instantaneous locator file and offender characteristics
  839  information on all released registered sexual predators for
  840  purposes of monitoring, tracking, and prosecution. The
  841  photograph, palm prints, and fingerprints do not have to be
  842  stored in a computerized format.
  843         2. The department’s sexual predator registration list,
  844  containing the information described in subparagraph (a)1., is a
  845  public record, unless otherwise made exempt or confidential and
  846  exempt from s. 119.07(1) and s. 24(a), Art. I of the State
  847  Constitution. The department may disseminate this public
  848  information by any means deemed appropriate, including operating
  849  a toll-free telephone number for this purpose. When the
  850  department provides information regarding a registered sexual
  851  predator to the public, department personnel shall advise the
  852  person making the inquiry that positive identification of a
  853  person believed to be a sexual predator cannot be established
  854  unless a fingerprint comparison is made, and that it is illegal
  855  to use public information regarding a registered sexual predator
  856  to facilitate the commission of a crime.
  857         3. The department shall adopt guidelines as necessary
  858  regarding the registration of sexual predators and the
  859  dissemination of information regarding sexual predators as
  860  required by this section.
  861         (l) A sexual predator shall maintain registration with the
  862  department for the duration of his or her life, unless the
  863  sexual predator has received a full pardon or has had a
  864  conviction set aside in a postconviction proceeding for any
  865  offense that met the criteria for the sexual predator
  866  designation.
  867         (7) COMMUNITY AND PUBLIC NOTIFICATION.—
  868         (a) Law enforcement agencies must inform members of the
  869  community and the public of a sexual predator’s presence. Upon
  870  notification of the presence of a sexual predator, the sheriff
  871  of the county or the chief of police of the municipality where
  872  the sexual predator establishes or maintains a permanent or
  873  temporary residence shall notify members of the community and
  874  the public of the presence of the sexual predator in a manner
  875  deemed appropriate by the sheriff or the chief of police. Within
  876  48 hours after receiving notification of the presence of a
  877  sexual predator, the sheriff of the county or the chief of
  878  police of the municipality where the sexual predator temporarily
  879  or permanently resides shall notify each licensed child care
  880  facility, elementary school, middle school, and high school
  881  within a 1-mile radius of the temporary or permanent residence
  882  of the sexual predator of the presence of the sexual predator.
  883  Information provided to members of the community and the public
  884  regarding a sexual predator must include:
  885         1. The name of the sexual predator;
  886         2. A description of the sexual predator, including a
  887  photograph;
  888         3. The sexual predator’s current permanent, temporary, and
  889  transient addresses, and descriptions of registered locations
  890  that have no specific street address, including the name of the
  891  county or municipality if known;
  892         4. The circumstances of the sexual predator’s offense or
  893  offenses; and
  894         5. Whether the victim of the sexual predator’s offense or
  895  offenses was, at the time of the offense, a minor or an adult.
  896  
  897  This paragraph does not authorize the release of the name of any
  898  victim of the sexual predator.
  899         (b) The sheriff or the police chief may coordinate the
  900  community and public notification efforts with the department.
  901  Statewide notification to the public is authorized, as deemed
  902  appropriate by local law enforcement personnel and the
  903  department.
  904         (c) The department shall notify the public of all
  905  designated sexual predators through the Internet. The Internet
  906  notice shall include the information required by paragraph (a).
  907         (d) The department shall adopt a protocol to assist law
  908  enforcement agencies in their efforts to notify the community
  909  and the public of the presence of sexual predators.
  910         (8) VERIFICATION.—The department and the Department of
  911  Corrections shall implement a system for verifying the addresses
  912  of sexual predators. The system must be consistent with the
  913  federal Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006 and
  914  any other federal standards applicable to such verification or
  915  required to be met as a condition for the receipt of federal
  916  funds by the state. The Department of Corrections shall verify
  917  the addresses of sexual predators who are not incarcerated but
  918  who reside in the community under the supervision of the
  919  Department of Corrections and shall report to the department any
  920  failure by a sexual predator to comply with registration
  921  requirements. County and local law enforcement agencies, in
  922  conjunction with the department, shall verify the addresses of
  923  sexual predators who are not under the care, custody, control,
  924  or supervision of the Department of Corrections, and may verify
  925  the addresses of sexual predators who are under the care,
  926  custody, control, or supervision of the Department of
  927  Corrections. Local law enforcement agencies shall report to the
  928  department any failure by a sexual predator to comply with
  929  registration requirements.
  930         (a) A sexual predator shall report in person each year
  931  during the month of the sexual predator’s birthday and during
  932  every third month thereafter to the sheriff’s office in the
  933  county in which he or she resides or is otherwise located to
  934  reregister. The sheriff’s office may determine the appropriate
  935  times and days for reporting by the sexual predator, which must
  936  be consistent with the reporting requirements of this paragraph.
  937  Reregistration must include any changes to the following
  938  information:
  939         1. Name; social security number; age; race; sex; date of
  940  birth; height; weight; tattoos or other identifying marks; hair
  941  and eye color; address of any permanent residence and address of
  942  any current temporary residence, within this the state or out of
  943  state, including a rural route address and a post office box; if
  944  he or she has no permanent or temporary address, any transient
  945  residence within this the state including the address, location
  946  or description of the transient residences, and dates of any
  947  current or known future temporary residence within this the
  948  state or out of state; all electronic mail addresses; all
  949  Internet identifiers and each Internet identifier’s
  950  corresponding website homepage or application software name; all
  951  home telephone numbers and cellular telephone numbers; date and
  952  place of any employment; the make, model, color, vehicle
  953  identification number (VIN), and license tag number of all
  954  vehicles owned; fingerprints; palm prints; and photograph. A
  955  post office box may not be provided in lieu of a physical
  956  residential address. The sexual predator shall also produce his
  957  or her passport, if he or she has a passport, and, if he or she
  958  is an alien, shall produce or provide information about
  959  documents establishing his or her immigration status. The sexual
  960  predator shall also provide information about any professional
  961  licenses he or she has.
  962         2. If the sexual predator is enrolled or employed, whether
  963  for compensation or as a volunteer, at an institution of higher
  964  education in this state, the sexual predator shall also provide
  965  to the department the name, address, and county of each
  966  institution, including each campus attended, and the sexual
  967  predator’s enrollment, volunteer, or employment status.
  968         3. If the sexual predator’s place of residence is a motor
  969  vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or manufactured home, as those
  970  terms are defined in chapter 320, the sexual predator shall also
  971  provide the vehicle identification number (VIN); the license tag
  972  number; the registration number; and a description, including
  973  color scheme, of the motor vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or
  974  manufactured home. If the sexual predator’s place of residence
  975  is a vessel, live-aboard vessel, or houseboat, as those terms
  976  are defined in chapter 327, the sexual predator shall also
  977  provide the hull identification number; the manufacturer’s
  978  serial number; the name of the vessel, live-aboard vessel, or
  979  houseboat; the registration number of the vessel, live-aboard
  980  vessel, or houseboat; and a description, including color scheme,
  981  of the vessel, live-aboard vessel, or houseboat.
  982         (b) The sheriff’s office shall, within 2 working days,
  983  electronically submit to and update with the department, in a
  984  manner prescribed by the department, all such information within
  985  2 business days after provided by the sexual predator provides
  986  it to the sheriff’s office department in a manner prescribed by
  987  the department.
  988         (9) IMMUNITY.—The department, the Department of Highway
  989  Safety and Motor Vehicles, the Department of Corrections, the
  990  Department of Juvenile Justice, any law enforcement agency in
  991  this state, and the personnel of those departments; an elected
  992  or appointed official, public employee, or school administrator;
  993  or an employee, agency, or any individual or entity acting at
  994  the request or upon the direction of any law enforcement agency
  995  is immune from civil liability for damages for good faith
  996  compliance with the requirements of this section or for the
  997  release of information under this section, and shall be presumed
  998  to have acted in good faith in compiling, recording, reporting,
  999  or releasing the information. The presumption of good faith is
 1000  not overcome if a technical or clerical error is made by the
 1001  department, the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles,
 1002  the Department of Corrections, the Department of Juvenile
 1003  Justice, the personnel of those departments, or any individual
 1004  or entity acting at the request or upon the direction of any of
 1005  those departments in compiling or providing information, or if
 1006  information is incomplete or incorrect because a sexual predator
 1007  fails to report or falsely reports his or her current place of
 1008  permanent or temporary residence.
 1009         (10) PENALTIES.—
 1010         (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided, a sexual
 1011  predator who fails to register; who fails, after registration,
 1012  to maintain, acquire, or renew a driver license or an
 1013  identification card; who fails to provide required location
 1014  information or change-of-name information; who fails to provide
 1015  electronic mail addresses, Internet identifiers, and each
 1016  Internet identifier’s corresponding website homepage or
 1017  application software name; who fails to provide all home
 1018  telephone numbers and cellular telephone numbers; who fails to
 1019  report any changes to, employment information or changes, change

 1025  to make a required report in connection with vacating a
 1026  permanent residence; who fails to reregister as required; who
 1027  fails to respond to any address verification correspondence from
 1028  the department or from county or local law enforcement agencies
 1029  within 3 weeks after of the date of the correspondence; who
 1030  knowingly provides false registration information by act or
 1031  omission; or who otherwise fails, by act or omission, to comply
 1032  with the requirements of this section commits a felony of the
 1033  third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083,
 1034  or s. 775.084. Each instance of a failure to register or report
 1035  changes to the required information specified in this paragraph
 1036  constitutes a separate offense.
 1037         (b) A sexual predator who has been convicted of or found to
 1038  have committed, or has pled nolo contendere or guilty to,
 1039  regardless of adjudication, any violation, or attempted
 1040  violation, of s. 787.01, s. 787.02, or s. 787.025(2)(c), where
 1041  the victim is a minor; s. 794.011, excluding s. 794.011(10); s.
 1042  794.05; former s. 796.03; former s. 796.035; s. 800.04; s.
 1043  827.071; s. 847.0133; s. 847.0135(5); s. 847.0145; or s.
 1044  985.701(1); or a violation of a similar law of another
 1045  jurisdiction when the victim of the offense was a minor, and who
 1046  works, whether for compensation or as a volunteer, at any
 1047  business, school, child care facility, park, playground, or
 1048  other place where children regularly congregate, commits a
 1049  felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s.
 1050  775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
 1051         (c) For a felony violation of this section, excluding
 1052  paragraph (g), committed on or after July 1, 2018, if the court
 1053  does not impose a prison sentence, the court shall impose a
 1054  mandatory minimum term of community control, as defined in s.
 1055  948.001, as follows:
 1056         1. For a first offense, a mandatory minimum term of 6
 1057  months with electronic monitoring.
 1058         2. For a second offense, a mandatory minimum term of 1 year
 1059  with electronic monitoring.
 1060         3. For a third or subsequent offense, a mandatory minimum
 1061  term of 2 years with electronic monitoring.
 1062         (d) Any person who misuses public records information
 1063  relating to a sexual predator, as defined in this section, or a
 1064  sexual offender, as defined in s. 943.0435 or s. 944.607, to
 1065  secure a payment from such a predator or offender; who knowingly
 1066  distributes or publishes false information relating to such a
 1067  predator or offender which the person misrepresents as being
 1068  public records information; or who materially alters public
 1069  records information with the intent to misrepresent the
 1070  information, including documents, summaries of public records
 1071  information provided by law enforcement agencies, or public
 1072  records information displayed by law enforcement agencies on
 1073  websites or provided through other means of communication,
 1074  commits a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as
 1075  provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.
 1076         (e) A sexual predator who commits any act or omission in
 1077  violation of this section may be prosecuted for the act or
 1078  omission in the county in which the act or omission was
 1079  committed, in the county of the last registered address of the
 1080  sexual predator, in the county in which the conviction occurred
 1081  for the offense or offenses that meet the criteria for
 1082  designating a person as a sexual predator, in the county where
 1083  the sexual predator was released from incarceration, or in the
 1084  county of the intended address of the sexual predator as
 1085  reported by the sexual predator prior to his or her release from
 1086  incarceration. In addition, a sexual predator may be prosecuted
 1087  for any such act or omission in the county in which he or she
 1088  was designated a sexual predator.
 1089         (f) An arrest on charges of failure to register, the
 1090  service of an information or a complaint for a violation of this
 1091  section, or an arraignment on charges for a violation of this
 1092  section constitutes actual notice of the duty to register when
 1093  the predator has been provided and advised of his or her
 1094  statutory obligation to register under subsection (6). A sexual
 1095  predator’s failure to immediately register as required by this
 1096  section following such arrest, service, or arraignment
 1097  constitutes grounds for a subsequent charge of failure to
 1098  register. A sexual predator charged with the crime of failure to
 1099  register who asserts, or intends to assert, a lack of notice of
 1100  the duty to register as a defense to a charge of failure to
 1101  register shall immediately register as required by this section.
 1102  A sexual predator who is charged with a subsequent failure to
 1103  register may not assert the defense of a lack of notice of the
 1104  duty to register. Registration following such arrest, service,
 1105  or arraignment is not a defense and does not relieve the sexual
 1106  predator of criminal liability for the failure to register.
 1107         (g) Any person who has reason to believe that a sexual
 1108  predator is not complying, or has not complied, with the
 1109  requirements of this section and who, with the intent to assist
 1110  the sexual predator in eluding a law enforcement agency that is
 1111  seeking to find the sexual predator to question the sexual
 1112  predator about, or to arrest the sexual predator for, his or her
 1113  noncompliance with the requirements of this section:
 1114         1. Withholds information from, or does not notify, the law
 1115  enforcement agency about the sexual predator’s noncompliance
 1116  with the requirements of this section, and, if known, the
 1117  whereabouts of the sexual predator;
 1118         2. Harbors, or attempts to harbor, or assists another
 1119  person in harboring or attempting to harbor, the sexual
 1120  predator;
 1121         3. Conceals or attempts to conceal, or assists another
 1122  person in concealing or attempting to conceal, the sexual
 1123  predator; or
 1124         4. Provides information to the law enforcement agency
 1125  regarding the sexual predator which the person knows to be false
 1126  information,
 1127  
 1128  commits a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in
 1129  s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084. This paragraph does not
 1130  apply if the sexual predator is incarcerated in or is in the
 1131  custody of a state correctional facility, a private correctional
 1132  facility, a local jail, or a federal correctional facility.
 1133         Section 2. Section 943.0435, Florida Statutes, is amended
 1134  to read:
 1135         943.0435 Sexual offenders required to register with the
 1136  department; penalty.—
 1137         (1) As used in this section, the term:
 1138         (a) “Change in status at an institution of higher
 1139  education” has the same meaning as provided in s. 775.21.
 1140         (b) “Convicted” means that there has been a determination
 1141  of guilt as a result of a trial or the entry of a plea of guilty
 1142  or nolo contendere, regardless of whether adjudication is
 1143  withheld, and includes an adjudication of delinquency of a
 1144  juvenile as specified in this section. Conviction of a similar
 1145  offense includes, but is not limited to, a conviction by a
 1146  federal or military tribunal, including courts-martial conducted
 1147  by the Armed Forces of the United States, and includes a
 1148  conviction or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere
 1149  resulting in a sanction in any state of the United States or

 1528  agencies shall report to the department any failure by a sexual
 1529  offender to comply with registration requirements.
 1530         (7) A sexual offender who intends to establish a permanent,
 1531  temporary, or transient residence in another state or
 1532  jurisdiction other than the State of Florida shall report in
 1533  person to the sheriff of the county of current residence at
 1534  least within 48 hours before the date he or she intends to leave
 1535  this state to establish residence in another state or
 1536  jurisdiction or at least 21 days before the date he or she
 1537  intends to travel if the intended residence of 5 days or more is
 1538  outside of the United States. Any travel that is not known by
 1539  the sexual offender 48 hours before he or she intends to
 1540  establish a residence in another state or jurisdiction, or 21
 1541  days before the departure date for travel outside of the United
 1542  States, must be reported in person to the sheriff’s office as
 1543  soon as possible before departure. The sexual offender shall
 1544  provide to the sheriff the address, municipality, county, state,
 1545  and country of intended residence. For international travel, the
 1546  sexual offender shall also provide travel information,
 1547  including, but not limited to, expected departure and return
 1548  dates, flight number, airport of departure, cruise port of
 1549  departure, or any other means of intended travel. The sheriff
 1550  shall promptly provide to the department the information
 1551  received from the sexual offender. The department shall notify
 1552  the statewide law enforcement agency, or a comparable agency, in
 1553  the intended state, jurisdiction, or country of residence or the
 1554  intended country of travel of the sexual offender’s intended
 1555  residence or intended travel. The failure of a sexual offender
 1556  to provide his or her intended place of residence or intended
 1557  travel is punishable as provided in subsection (9).
 1558         (8) A sexual offender who indicates his or her intent to
 1559  establish a permanent, temporary, or transient residence in
 1560  another state, a jurisdiction other than the State of Florida,
 1561  or intent to travel to another country and later decides to
 1562  remain in this state shall, within 48 hours after the date upon
 1563  which the sexual offender indicated he or she would leave this
 1564  state, report in person to the sheriff’s office sheriff to which
 1565  the sexual offender reported the intended change of permanent,
 1566  temporary, or transient residence or intended international
 1567  travel, and report his or her intent to remain in this state.
 1568  The sheriff shall promptly report this information to the
 1569  department. A sexual offender who reports his or her intent to
 1570  establish a permanent, temporary, or transient residence in
 1571  another state, a jurisdiction other than the State of Florida,
 1572  or intent to travel to another country, but who remains in this
 1573  state without reporting to the sheriff in the manner required by
 1574  this subsection commits a felony of the second degree,
 1575  punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
 1576         (9)(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided, a sexual
 1577  offender who fails to register; who fails, after registration,
 1578  to maintain, acquire, or renew a driver license or an
 1579  identification card; who fails to provide required location
 1580  information or change-of-name information; who fails to provide
 1581  electronic mail addresses, Internet identifiers, and each
 1582  Internet identifier’s corresponding website homepage or
 1583  application software name; who fails to provide all home
 1584  telephone numbers and cellular telephone numbers; who fails to
 1585  report any changes to employment information or changes in
 1586  status at an institution of higher education; who fails to
 1587  report any changes to vehicles owned, including the addition of
 1588  new vehicles and changes to the make, model, color, vehicle
 1589  identification number (VIN), and license tag numbers of
 1590  previously reported vehicles; who fails to make a required
 1591  report in connection with vacating a permanent residence; who
 1592  fails to reregister as required; who fails to respond to any
 1593  address verification correspondence from the department or from
 1594  county or local law enforcement agencies within 3 weeks after
 1595  the date of the correspondence; who knowingly provides false
 1596  registration information by act or omission; or who otherwise
 1597  fails, by act or omission, to A sexual offender who does not
 1598  comply with the requirements of this section commits a felony of
 1599  the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s.
 1600  775.083, or s. 775.084. Each instance of a failure to register
 1601  or report changes to the required information specified in this
 1602  paragraph constitutes a separate offense.
 1603         (b) For a felony violation of this section, excluding
 1604  subsection (13), committed on or after July 1, 2018, if the
 1605  court does not impose a prison sentence, the court shall impose
 1606  a mandatory minimum term of community control, as defined in s.
 1607  948.001, as follows:
 1608         1. For a first offense, a mandatory minimum term of 6
 1609  months with electronic monitoring.
 1610         2. For a second offense, a mandatory minimum term of 1 year
 1611  with electronic monitoring.
 1612         3. For a third or subsequent offense, a mandatory minimum
 1613  term of 2 years with electronic monitoring.
 1614         (c) A sexual offender who commits any act or omission in
 1615  violation of this section may be prosecuted for the act or
 1616  omission in the county in which the act or omission was
 1617  committed, in the county of the last registered address of the
 1618  sexual offender, in the county in which the conviction occurred
 1619  for the offense or offenses that meet the criteria for
 1620  designating a person as a sexual offender, in the county where
 1621  the sexual offender was released from incarceration, or in the
 1622  county of the intended address of the sexual offender as
 1623  reported by the offender prior to his or her release from
 1624  incarceration.
 1625         (d) An arrest on charges of failure to register when the
 1626  offender has been provided and advised of his or her statutory
 1627  obligations to register under subsection (2), the service of an
 1628  information or a complaint for a violation of this section, or
 1629  an arraignment on charges for a violation of this section
 1630  constitutes actual notice of the duty to register. A sexual
 1631  offender’s failure to immediately register as required by this
 1632  section following such arrest, service, or arraignment
 1633  constitutes grounds for a subsequent charge of failure to
 1634  register. A sexual offender charged with the crime of failure to
 1635  register who asserts, or intends to assert, a lack of notice of
 1636  the duty to register as a defense to a charge of failure to
 1637  register shall immediately register as required by this section.
 1638  A sexual offender who is charged with a subsequent failure to
 1639  register may not assert the defense of a lack of notice of the
 1640  duty to register. Registration following such arrest, service,
 1641  or arraignment is not a defense and does not relieve the sexual
 1642  offender of criminal liability for the failure to register.
 1643         (10) The department, the Department of Highway Safety and
 1644  Motor Vehicles, the Department of Corrections, the Department of
 1645  Juvenile Justice, any law enforcement agency in this state, and
 1646  the personnel of those departments; an elected or appointed
 1647  official, public employee, or school administrator; or an
 1648  employee, agency, or any individual or entity acting at the
 1649  request or upon the direction of any law enforcement agency is
 1650  immune from civil liability for damages for good faith
 1651  compliance with the requirements of this section or for the
 1652  release of information under this section, and shall be presumed
 1653  to have acted in good faith in compiling, recording, reporting,
 1654  or releasing the information. The presumption of good faith is
 1655  not overcome if a technical or clerical error is made by the
 1656  department, the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles,
 1657  the Department of Corrections, the Department of Juvenile
 1658  Justice, the personnel of those departments, or any individual
 1659  or entity acting at the request or upon the direction of any of
 1660  those departments in compiling or providing information, or if
 1661  information is incomplete or incorrect because a sexual offender
 1662  fails to report or falsely reports his or her current place of
 1663  permanent, temporary, or transient residence.
 1664         (11) Except as provided in s. 943.04354, a sexual offender
 1665  shall maintain registration with the department for the duration
 1666  of his or her life unless the sexual offender has received a
 1667  full pardon or has had a conviction set aside in a
 1668  postconviction proceeding for any offense that meets the
 1669  criteria for classifying the person as a sexual offender for
 1670  purposes of registration. However, a sexual offender shall be
 1671  considered for removal of the requirement to register as a
 1672  sexual offender only if the person:
 1673         (a)1. Has been lawfully released from confinement,
 1674  supervision, or sanction, whichever is later, for at least 25
 1675  years and has not been arrested for any felony or misdemeanor
 1676  offense since release, provided that the sexual offender’s
 1677  requirement to register was not based upon an adult conviction:
 1678         a. For a violation of s. 787.01 or s. 787.02;
 1679         b. For a violation of s. 794.011, excluding s. 794.011(10);
 1680         c. For a violation of s. 800.04(4)(a)2. where the court
 1681  finds the offense involved a victim under 12 years of age or
 1682  sexual activity by the use of force or coercion;
 1683         d. For a violation of s. 800.04(5)(b);
 1684         e. For a violation of s. 800.04(5)(c)2. where the court
 1685  finds the offense involved the use of force or coercion and
 1686  unclothed genitals or genital area;
 1687         f. For a violation of s. 825.1025(2)(a);
 1688         g. For any attempt or conspiracy to commit any such
 1689  offense;
 1690         h. For a violation of similar law of another jurisdiction;
 1691  or
 1692         i. For a violation of a similar offense committed in this
 1693  state which has been redesignated from a former statute number
 1694  to one of those listed in this subparagraph.
 1695         2. If the sexual offender meets the criteria in
 1696  subparagraph 1., the sexual offender may, for the purpose of
 1697  removing the requirement for registration as a sexual offender,
 1698  petition the criminal division of the circuit court of the
 1699  circuit:
 1700         a. Where the conviction or adjudication occurred, for a
 1701  conviction in this state;
 1702         b. Where the sexual offender resides, for a conviction of a
 1703  violation of similar law of another jurisdiction; or
 1704         c. Where the sexual offender last resided, for a sexual
 1705  offender with a conviction of a violation of similar law of
 1706  another jurisdiction who no longer resides in this state.
 1707         3. The court may grant or deny relief if the offender
 1708  demonstrates to the court that he or she has not been arrested
 1709  for any crime since release; the requested relief complies with
 1710  the federal Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006
 1711  and any other federal standards applicable to the removal of
 1712  registration requirements for a sexual offender or required to
 1713  be met as a condition for the receipt of federal funds by the
 1714  state; and the court is otherwise satisfied that the offender is
 1715  not a current or potential threat to public safety. The
 1716  department and the state attorney in the circuit in which the
 1717  petition is filed must be given notice of the petition at least
 1718  3 weeks before the hearing on the matter. The department and the
 1719  state attorney may present evidence in opposition to the
 1720  requested relief or may otherwise demonstrate the reasons why
 1721  the petition should be denied. If the court denies the petition,
 1722  the court may set a future date at which the sexual offender may
 1723  again petition the court for relief, subject to the standards
 1724  for relief provided in this subsection.
 1725         4. The department shall remove an offender from
 1726  classification as a sexual offender for purposes of registration
 1727  if the offender provides to the department a certified copy of
 1728  the court’s written findings or order that indicates that the
 1729  offender is no longer required to comply with the requirements
 1730  for registration as a sexual offender.
 1731         (b) Maintains As defined in sub-subparagraph (1)(h)1.b.
 1732  must maintain registration with the department as described in
 1733  sub-subparagraph (1)(h)1.b. for the duration of his or her life
 1734  until the person provides the department with an order issued by
 1735  the court that designated the person as a sexual predator, as a
 1736  sexually violent predator, or any other by another sexual
 1737  offender designation in the state or jurisdiction in which the
 1738  order was issued which states that such designation has been
 1739  removed or demonstrates to the department that such designation,
 1740  if not imposed by a court, has been removed by operation of law
 1741  or court order in the state or jurisdiction in which the
 1742  designation was made, and provided that such person no longer
 1743  meets the criteria for registration as a sexual offender under
 1744  the laws of this state. To qualify for removal of the
 1745  registration requirements under this paragraph, a sexual
 1746  offender described in sub-subparagraph (1)(h)1.b. must establish
 1747  that his or her designation has been removed and establish that
 1748  he or she does not meet the criteria for registration under any
 1749  other sub-subparagraph under subparagraph (1)(h)1.
 1750         (12) The Legislature finds that sexual offenders,
 1751  especially those who have committed offenses against minors,
 1752  often pose a high risk of engaging in sexual offenses even after
 1753  being released from incarceration or commitment and that
 1754  protection of the public from sexual offenders is a paramount
 1755  government interest. Sexual offenders have a reduced expectation
 1756  of privacy because of the public’s interest in public safety and
 1757  in the effective operation of government. Releasing information
 1758  concerning sexual offenders to law enforcement agencies and to
 1759  persons who request such information, and the release of such
 1760  information to the public by a law enforcement agency or public
 1761  agency, will further the governmental interests of public
 1762  safety. The designation of a person as a sexual offender is not
 1763  a sentence or a punishment but is simply the status of the
 1764  offender which is the result of a conviction for having
 1765  committed certain crimes.
 1766         (13) Any person who has reason to believe that a sexual
 1767  offender is not complying, or has not complied, with the
 1768  requirements of this section and who, with the intent to assist
 1769  the sexual offender in eluding a law enforcement agency that is
 1770  seeking to find the sexual offender to question the sexual
 1771  offender about, or to arrest the sexual offender for, his or her
 1772  noncompliance with the requirements of this section:
 1773         (a) Withholds information from, or does not notify, the law
 1774  enforcement agency about the sexual offender’s noncompliance
 1775  with the requirements of this section, and, if known, the
 1776  whereabouts of the sexual offender;
 1777         (b) Harbors, or attempts to harbor, or assists another
 1778  person in harboring or attempting to harbor, the sexual
 1779  offender; or
 1780         (c) Conceals or attempts to conceal, or assists another
 1781  person in concealing or attempting to conceal, the sexual
 1782  offender; or
 1783         (d) Provides information to the law enforcement agency
 1784  regarding the sexual offender that the person knows to be false
 1785  information,
 1786  
 1787  commits a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in
 1788  s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
 1789         (14)(a) A sexual offender must report in person each year
 1790  during the month of the sexual offender’s birthday and during
 1791  the sixth month following the sexual offender’s birth month to
 1792  the sheriff’s office in the county in which he or she resides or
 1793  is otherwise located to reregister.
 1794         (b) However, a sexual offender who is required to register
 1795  as a result of a conviction for:
 1796         1. Section 787.01 or s. 787.02 where the victim is a minor;
 1797         2. Section 794.011, excluding s. 794.011(10);
 1798         3. Section 800.04(4)(a)2. where the court finds the offense
 1799  involved a victim under 12 years of age or sexual activity by
 1800  the use of force or coercion;
 1801         4. Section 800.04(5)(b);
 1802         5. Section 800.04(5)(c)1. where the court finds molestation
 1803  involving unclothed genitals or genital area;
 1804         6. Section 800.04(5)(c)2. where the court finds molestation
 1805  involving the use of force or coercion and unclothed genitals or
 1806  genital area;
 1807         7. Section 800.04(5)(d) where the court finds the use of
 1808  force or coercion and unclothed genitals or genital area;
 1809         8. Section 825.1025(2)(a);
 1810         9. Any attempt or conspiracy to commit such offense;
 1811         10. A violation of a similar law of another jurisdiction;
 1812  or
 1813         11. A violation of a similar offense committed in this
 1814  state which has been redesignated from a former statute number
 1815  to one of those listed in this paragraph,
 1816  
 1817  must reregister each year during the month of the sexual
 1818  offender’s birthday and every third month thereafter.
 1819         (c) The sheriff’s office may determine the appropriate
 1820  times and days for reporting by the sexual offender, which must
 1821  be consistent with the reporting requirements of this
 1822  subsection. Reregistration must include any changes to the
 1823  following information:
 1824         1. Name; social security number; age; race; sex; date of
 1825  birth; height; weight; tattoos or other identifying marks; hair
 1826  and eye color; address of any permanent residence and address of
 1827  any current temporary residence, within this the state or out of
 1828  state, including a rural route address and a post office box; if
 1829  he or she has no permanent or temporary address, any transient
 1830  residence within this the state; address, location or
 1831  description, and dates of any current or known future temporary
 1832  residence within this the state or out of state; all electronic
 1833  mail addresses or Internet identifiers and each Internet
 1834  identifier’s corresponding website homepage or application
 1835  software name; all home telephone numbers and cellular telephone
 1836  numbers; employment information; the make, model, color, vehicle
 1837  identification number (VIN), and license tag number of all
 1838  vehicles owned; fingerprints; palm prints; and photograph. A
 1839  post office box may not be provided in lieu of a physical
 1840  residential address. The sexual offender shall also produce his
 1841  or her passport, if he or she has a passport, and, if he or she
 1842  is an alien, shall produce or provide information about
 1843  documents establishing his or her immigration status. The sexual
 1844  offender shall also provide information about any professional
 1845  licenses he or she has.
 1846         2. If the sexual offender is enrolled or employed, whether
 1847  for compensation or as a volunteer, at an institution of higher
 1848  education in this state, the sexual offender shall also provide
 1849  to the department the name, address, and county of each
 1850  institution, including each campus attended, and the sexual
 1851  offender’s enrollment, volunteer, or employment status.
 1852         3. If the sexual offender’s place of residence is a motor
 1853  vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or manufactured home, as those
 1854  terms are defined in chapter 320, the sexual offender shall also
 1855  provide the vehicle identification number (VIN); the license tag
 1856  number; the registration number; and a description, including
 1857  color scheme, of the motor vehicle, trailer, mobile home, or
 1858  manufactured home. If the sexual offender’s place of residence

 1868  address verification correspondence from the department within 3
 1869  weeks of the date of the correspondence, who fails to report all
 1870  electronic mail addresses and all Internet identifiers, and each
 1871  Internet identifier’s corresponding website homepage or
 1872  application software name, or who knowingly provides false
 1873  registration information by act or omission commits a felony of
 1874  the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s.
 1875  775.083, or s. 775.084.
 1876         (d) The sheriff’s office shall, within 2 working days,

 1878  manner prescribed by the department, all such information within
 1879  2 business days after provided by the sexual offender provides
 1880  it to the sheriff’s office department in a manner prescribed by
 1881  the department.

 1883  made by this act to section 775.21, Florida Statutes, in a
 1884  reference thereto, paragraph (d) of subsection (1) of section
