  7.12     Subd. 3.  [REGISTRATION PROCEDURE.] (a) Except as provided 
  7.13  in subdivision 3a, a person required to register under this 
  7.14  section shall register with the corrections agent as soon as the 
  7.15  agent is assigned to the person.  If the person does not have an 
  7.16  assigned corrections agent or is unable to locate the assigned 
  7.17  corrections agent, the person shall register with the law 
  7.18  enforcement ~~agency~~ authority that has jurisdiction in the area 
  7.19  of the person's ~~residence~~ primary address or where the person 
  7.20  will stay. 
  7.21     (b) Except as provided in subdivision 3a, ~~at least five~~ 
  7.22  ~~days before the person starts living at a new primary address,~~

  7.24  written notice ~~of the new primary living address~~ to the assigned 
  7.25  corrections agent or to the law enforcement authority with which 
  7.26  the person currently is registered at least five days before the 
  7.27  person moves to a new address where the person intends to stay 
  7.28  for 14 days or longer.  If the person will be living in a new 
  7.29  state and that state has a registration requirement, the person 
  7.30  shall also give written notice of the new address to the 
  7.31  designated registration agency in the new state.  A person 
  7.32  required to register under this section shall also give written 
  7.33  notice to the assigned corrections agent or to the law 
  7.34  enforcement authority that has jurisdiction in the area of the 
  7.35  person's ~~residence~~ primary address that the person is no longer 
  7.36  living or staying at an address, immediately after the person is 
  8.1   no longer living or staying at that address.  The corrections 
  8.2   agent or law enforcement authority shall, within two business 
  8.3   days after receipt of this information, forward it to the Bureau 
  8.4   of Criminal Apprehension.  The Bureau of Criminal Apprehension 
  8.5   shall, if it has not already been done, notify the law 
  8.6   enforcement authority having primary jurisdiction in the 
  8.7   community where the person will live of the new address.  If the 
  8.8   person is leaving the state, the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension 
  8.9   shall notify the registration authority in the new state of the 
  8.10  new address.  If the person's obligation to register arose under 
  8.11  subdivision ~~1~~ 1b, paragraph (b), the person's registration 
  8.12  requirements under this section terminate when the person begins 
  8.13  living in the new state. 
  8.14     (c) A person required to register under subdivision ~~1~~ 1b, 
  8.15  paragraph (b), because the person is working or attending school 
  8.16  in Minnesota shall register with the law enforcement 
  8.17  ~~agency~~ authority that has jurisdiction in the area where the 
  8.18  person works or attends school.  In addition to other 
  8.19  information required by this section, the person shall provide 
  8.20  the address of the school or of the location where the person is 
  8.21  employed.  A person must comply with this paragraph within five 
  8.22  days of beginning employment or school.  A person's obligation 
  8.23  to register under this paragraph terminates when the person is 
  8.24  no longer working or attending school in Minnesota. 
  8.25     (d) A person required to register under this section who 
  8.26  works or attends school outside of Minnesota shall register as a 
  8.27  predatory offender in the state where the person works or 
  8.28  attends school.  The person's corrections agent, or if the 
  8.29  person does not have an assigned corrections agent, the law 
  8.30  enforcement authority that has jurisdiction in the area of the 
  8.31  person's ~~residence~~ primary address shall notify the person of 
  8.32  this requirement.  
  8.33     Subd. 3a.  [REGISTRATION PROCEDURE WHEN PERSON LACKS 
  8.34  PRIMARY ADDRESS.] (a) If a person leaves a primary address and 
  8.35  does not have a new primary address, the person must register 
  8.36  with the law enforcement authority that has jurisdiction in the 
  9.1   area where the person is staying within 24 hours of the time the 
  9.2   person no longer has a primary address. 
  9.3      (b) A person who lacks a primary address must register with 
  9.4   the law enforcement authority that has jurisdiction in the area 
  9.5   where the person is staying within 24 hours after entering the 
  9.6   jurisdiction.  Each time a person who lacks a primary address 
  9.7   moves to a new jurisdiction without acquiring a primary address, 
  9.8   the person shall register with the law enforcement authority 
  9.9   that has jurisdiction in the area where the person is staying 
  9.10  within 24 hours after entering the jurisdiction. 
  9.11     (c) Upon registering under this subdivision, the person 
  9.12  shall provide the law enforcement authority with all of the 
  9.13  information the individual is required to provide under 
  9.14  subdivision 4a.  However, instead of reporting the person's 
  9.15  primary address, the person must describe the location of where 
  9.16  the person is staying with as much specificity as possible. 
  9.17     (d) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (e), if a 
  9.18  person continues to lack a primary address, the person must 
  9.19  report in person on a weekly basis to the law enforcement 
  9.20  authority with jurisdiction in the area where the person is 
  9.21  staying.  This weekly report shall occur between the hours of 
  9.22  9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.  The person is not required to provide 
  9.23  the registration information required under subdivision 4a each 
  9.24  time the offender reports to a law enforcement authority, but 
  9.25  the person must inform the law enforcement authority of changes 
  9.26  to any information provided under subdivision 4a or this 
  9.27  subdivision and must otherwise comply with this subdivision. 
  9.28     (e) If the law enforcement authority determines that it is 
  9.29  impractical, due to the person's unique circumstances, to 
  9.30  require a person lacking a primary address to report weekly and 
  9.31  in person as required under paragraph (d), the law enforcement 
  9.32  authority may authorize the person to follow an alternative 
  9.33  reporting procedure.  The law enforcement authority shall 
  9.34  consult with the person's corrections agent in establishing the 
  9.35  specific criteria of this alternative procedure, subject to the 
  9.36  following requirements. 
 10.1      (1) The law enforcement authority must document, in the 
 10.2   person's registration record, the specific reasons why the 
 10.3   weekly, in-person reporting process is impractical for the 
 10.4   person to follow. 
 10.5      (2) The authority must explain how the alternative 
 10.6   reporting procedure furthers the public safety objectives of 
 10.7   this section. 
 10.8      (3) The authority must require the person lacking a primary 
 10.9   address to report in person at least monthly to the law 
 10.10  enforcement authority or the person's corrections agent and must 
 10.11  specify the location where the person must report.  If the law 
 10.12  enforcement authority determines it would be more practical and 
 10.13  would further public safety for the person to report to another 
 10.14  law enforcement authority with jurisdiction where the person is 
 10.15  staying, it may, after consulting with the other law enforcement 
 10.16  authority, include this requirement in the person's alternative 
 10.17  reporting process. 
 10.18     (4) The authority must require the person to comply with 
 10.19  the weekly, in-person reporting process required under paragraph 
 10.20  (d), if the person moves to a new area where this process would 
 10.21  be practical. 
 10.22     (5) The authority must require the person to report any 
 10.23  changes to the registration information provided under 
 10.24  subdivision 4a and to comply with the periodic registration 
 10.25  requirements specified under paragraph (f). 
 10.26     (6) The authority must require the person to comply with 
 10.27  the requirements of paragraphs (b) and (c), if the person moves 
 10.28  to a primary address. 
 10.29     (f) If a person continues to lack a primary address and 
 10.30  continues to report to the same law enforcement authority, the 
 10.31  person shall provide the law enforcement authority with all of 
 10.32  the information the individual is required to provide under

 12.34     (3) If the person fails to mail the completed and signed 
 12.35  verification form to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension within

 14.24  becomes applicable.  If because of a change in circumstances any 
 14.25  information reported under paragraph ~~(b)~~ (a), clauses (1) to 
 14.26  (6), no longer applies, the person shall immediately inform the 
 14.27  agent or authority that the information is no longer valid.  If 
 14.28  the person leaves a primary address and does not have a new 
 14.29  primary address, the person must register as provided in

 14.33  provisions or intentionally provides false information to a 
 14.34  corrections agent, law enforcement authority, or the Bureau of 
 14.35  Criminal Apprehension is guilty of a felony and may be sentenced 
 14.36  to imprisonment for not more than five years or to payment of a 
 15.1   fine of not more than $10,000, or both. 
 15.2      (b) Except as provided in paragraph (c), a person convicted 
 15.3   of violating paragraph (a) shall be committed to the custody of 
 15.4   the commissioner of corrections for not less than a year and a 
 15.5   day, nor more than five years. 
 15.6      (c) A person convicted of violating paragraph (a), who has 
 15.7   previously been convicted of or adjudicated delinquent for 
 15.8   violating this section, shall be committed to the custody of the 
 15.9   commissioner of corrections for not less than two years, nor 
 15.10  more than five years. 
 15.11     (d) Prior to the time of sentencing, the prosecutor may 
 15.12  file a motion to have the person sentenced without regard to the 
 15.13  mandatory minimum sentence established by this subdivision.  The 
 15.14  motion shall be accompanied by a statement on the record of the 
 15.15  reasons for it.  When presented with the motion, or on its own 
 15.16  motion, the court may sentence the person without regard to the 
 15.17  mandatory minimum sentence if the court finds substantial and 
 15.18  compelling reasons to do so.  Sentencing a person in the manner 
 15.19  described in this paragraph is a departure from the Sentencing 
 15.20  Guidelines. 
 15.21     (e) A person convicted and sentenced as required by this 
 15.22  subdivision is not eligible for probation, parole, discharge, 
 15.23  work release, or supervised release, until that person has 
 15.24  served the full term of imprisonment as provided by law, 
 15.25  notwithstanding the provisions of sections 241.26, 242.19, 
 15.26  243.05, 244.04, 609.12, and 609.135. 
 15.27     Subd. 6.  [REGISTRATION PERIOD.] (a) Notwithstanding the 
 15.28  provisions of section 609.165, subdivision 1, and except as 
 15.29  provided in paragraphs (b), (c), and (d), a person required to 
 15.30  register under this section shall continue to comply with this 
 15.31  section until ten years have elapsed since the person initially 
 15.32  registered in connection with the offense, or until the 
 15.33  probation, supervised release, or conditional release period 
 15.34  expires, whichever occurs later.  For a person required to 
 15.35  register under this section who is committed under section 
 15.36  253B.18 or 253B.185, the ten-year registration period does not 
 16.1   include the period of commitment. 
 16.2      (b) If a person required to register under this section 
 16.3   fails to register following a change in ~~residence~~ the person's 
 16.4   primary or secondary address or motor vehicle information, the 
 16.5   commissioner of public safety may require the person to continue 
 16.6   to register for an additional period of five years.  This 
 16.7   five-year period is added to the end of the offender's 
 16.8   registration period.  
 16.9      (c) If a person required to register under this section is 
 16.10  subsequently incarcerated following a revocation of probation, 
 16.11  supervised release, or conditional release for that offense, or 
 16.12  a conviction for any new offense, the person shall continue to 
 16.13  register until ten years have elapsed since the person was last 
 16.14  released from incarceration or until the person's probation, 
 16.15  supervised release, or conditional release period expires, 
 16.16  whichever occurs later. 
 16.17     (d) A person shall continue to comply with this section for 
 16.18  the life of that person:  
 16.19     (1) if the person is convicted of or adjudicated delinquent 
 16.20  for any offense for which registration is required under 
 16.21  subdivision ~~1~~ 1b, or any offense from another state or any 
 16.22  federal offense similar to the offenses described in subdivision 
 16.23  ~~1~~ 1b, and the person has a prior conviction or adjudication for 
 16.24  an offense for which registration was or would have been 
 16.25  required under subdivision ~~1~~ 1b, or an offense from another 
 16.26  state or a federal offense similar to an offense described in 
 16.27  subdivision ~~1~~ 1b; 
 16.28     (2) if the person is required to register based upon a 
 16.29  conviction or delinquency adjudication for an offense under 
 16.30  section 609.185, clause (2), or a similar statute from another 
 16.31  state or the United States; 
 16.32     (3) if the person is required to register based upon a 
 16.33  conviction for an offense under section 609.342, subdivision 1, 
 16.34  paragraph (a), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (h); 609.343, subdivision 
 16.35  1, paragraph (a), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (h); 609.344, 
 16.36  subdivision 1, paragraph (a), (c), or (g); or 609.345, 
 17.1   subdivision 1, paragraph (a), (c), or (g); or a statute from 
 17.2   another state or the United States similar to the offenses 
 17.3   described in this clause; or 
 17.4      (4) if the person is required to register under subdivision 
 17.5   ~~1~~ 1b, paragraph (c), following commitment pursuant to a court 
 17.6   commitment under section 253B.185 or a similar law of another 
 17.7   state or the United States. 
 17.8      Subd. 7.  [USE OF INFORMATION.] Except as otherwise 
 17.9   provided in subdivision 7a or sections 244.052 and 299C.093, the 
 17.10  information provided under this section is private data on 
 17.11  individuals under section 13.02, subdivision 12.  The 
 17.12  information may be used only for law enforcement purposes.  
 17.13     Subd. 7a.  [AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION ON OFFENDERS WHO 
 17.14  ARE OUT OF COMPLIANCE WITH REGISTRATION LAW.] (a) The Bureau of 
 17.15  Criminal Apprehension may make information available to the 
 17.16  public about offenders who are 16 years of age or older and who 
 17.17  are out of compliance with this section for 30 days or longer 
 17.18  for failure to provide the ~~address of the~~ offenders' primary or 
 17.19  secondary ~~residences~~ addresses.  This information may be made 
 17.20  available to the public through electronic, computerized, or 
 17.21  other accessible means.  The amount and type of information made 
 17.22  available shall be limited to the information necessary for the 
 17.23  public to assist law enforcement in locating the offender. 
 17.24     (b) An offender who comes into compliance with this section 
 17.25  after the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension discloses information 
 17.26  about the offender to the public may send a written request to 
 17.27  the bureau requesting the bureau to treat information about the 
 17.28  offender as private data, consistent with subdivision 7.  The 
 17.29  bureau shall review the request and promptly take reasonable 
 17.30  action to treat the data as private, if the offender has 
 17.31  complied with the requirement that the offender provide ~~the~~ 
 17.32  ~~addresses of~~ the offender's primary and secondary ~~residences~~ 
 17.33  addresses, or promptly notify the offender that the information 
 17.34  will continue to be treated as public information and the 
 17.35  reasons for the bureau's decision. 
 17.36     (c) If an offender believes the information made public 
 18.1   about the offender is inaccurate or incomplete, the offender may 
 18.2   challenge the data under section 13.04, subdivision 4. 
 18.3      (d) The Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is immune from any 
 18.4   civil or criminal liability that might otherwise arise, based on 
 18.5   the accuracy or completeness of any information made public 
 18.6   under this subdivision, if the bureau acts in good faith. 
 18.7      ~~Subd. 8.  [LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITY.] For purposes of this~~ 
 18.8   ~~section, a law enforcement authority means, with respect to a~~ 
 18.9   ~~home rule charter or statutory city, the chief of police, and~~ 
 18.10  ~~with respect to an unincorporated area, the sheriff of the~~ 
 18.11  ~~county.~~ 
 18.12     Subd. 9.  [OFFENDERS FROM OTHER STATES.] When the state 
 18.13  accepts an offender from another state under a reciprocal 
 18.14  agreement under the interstate compact authorized by section 
 18.15  243.16 or under any authorized interstate agreement, the 
 18.16  acceptance is conditional on the offender agreeing to register 
 18.17  under this section when the offender is living in Minnesota. 
 18.18     <b>[EFFECTIVE DATE.]</b> This section is effective the day 
 18.19  following final enactment and applies to persons subject to 
 18.20  registration on or after that date. 
 18.21     Sec. 2.  Minnesota Statutes 2002, section 244.052, 
 18.22  subdivision 4, is amended to read: 
 18.23     Subd. 4.  [LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY; DISCLOSURE OF 
 18.24  INFORMATION TO PUBLIC.] (a) The law enforcement agency in the 
 18.25  area where the predatory offender resides, expects to reside, is 
 18.26  employed, or is regularly found, shall disclose to the public 
 18.27  any information regarding the offender contained in the report 
 18.28  forwarded to the agency under subdivision 3, paragraph (f), that 
 18.29  is relevant and necessary to protect the public and to 
 18.30  counteract the offender's dangerousness, consistent with the 
 18.31  guidelines in paragraph (b).  The extent of the information 
 18.32  disclosed and the community to whom disclosure is made must 
 18.33  relate to the level of danger posed by the offender, to the 
 18.34  offender's pattern of offending behavior, and to the need of 
 18.35  community members for information to enhance their individual 
 18.36  and collective safety. 
 19.1      (b) The law enforcement agency shall employ the following 
 19.2   guidelines in determining the scope of disclosure made under 
 19.3   this subdivision: 
 19.4      (1) if the offender is assigned to risk level I, the agency 
 19.5   may maintain information regarding the offender within the 
 19.6   agency and may disclose it to other law enforcement agencies.  
 19.7   Additionally, the agency may disclose the information to any 
 19.8   victims of or witnesses to the offense committed by the 
 19.9   offender. The agency shall disclose the information to victims 
 19.10  of the offense committed by the offender who have requested 
 19.11  disclosure and to adult members of the offender's immediate 
 19.12  household; 
 19.13     (2) if the offender is assigned to risk level II, the 
 19.14  agency also may disclose the information to agencies and groups 
 19.15  that the offender is likely to encounter for the purpose of 
 19.16  securing those institutions and protecting individuals in their 
 19.17  care while they are on or near the premises of the institution.  
 19.18  These agencies and groups include the staff members of public 
 19.19  and private educational institutions, day care establishments, 
 19.20  and establishments and organizations that primarily serve 
 19.21  individuals likely to be victimized by the offender.  The agency 
 19.22  also may disclose the information to individuals the agency 
 19.23  believes are likely to be victimized by the offender.  The 
 19.24  agency's belief shall be based on the offender's pattern of 
 19.25  offending or victim preference as documented in the information 
 19.26  provided by the department of corrections or human services; 
 19.27     (3) if the offender is assigned to risk level III, the 
 19.28  agency shall disclose the information to the persons and 
 19.29  entities described in clauses (1) and (2) and to other members 
 19.30  of the community whom the offender is likely to encounter, 
 19.31  unless the law enforcement agency determines that public safety 
 19.32  would be compromised by the disclosure or that a more limited 
 19.33  disclosure is necessary to protect the identity of the victim. 
 19.34     Notwithstanding the assignment of a predatory offender to 
 19.35  risk level II or III, a law enforcement agency may not make the 
 19.36  disclosures permitted or required by clause (2) or (3), if:  the 
 20.1   offender is placed or resides in a residential facility.  
 20.2   However, if an offender is placed or resides in a residential 
 20.3   facility, the offender and the head of the facility shall 
 20.4   designate the offender's likely residence upon release from the 
 20.5   facility and the head of the facility shall notify the 
 20.6   commissioner of corrections or the commissioner of human 
 20.7   services of the offender's likely residence at least 14 days 
 20.8   before the offender's scheduled release date.  The commissioner 
 20.9   shall give this information to the law enforcement agency having 
 20.10  jurisdiction over the offender's likely residence.  The head of 
 20.11  the residential facility also shall notify the commissioner of 
 20.12  corrections or human services within 48 hours after finalizing 
 20.13  the offender's approved relocation plan to a permanent 
 20.14  residence.  Within five days after receiving this notification, 
 20.15  the appropriate commissioner shall give to the appropriate law 
 20.16  enforcement agency all relevant information the commissioner has 
 20.17  concerning the offender, including information on the risk 
 20.18  factors in the offender's history and the risk level to which 
 20.19  the offender was assigned.  After receiving this information, 
 20.20  the law enforcement agency shall make the disclosures permitted 
 20.21  or required by clause (2) or (3), as appropriate. 
 20.22     (c) As used in paragraph (b), clauses (2) and (3), "likely 
 20.23  to encounter" means that:  
 20.24     (1) the organizations or community members are in a 
 20.25  location or in close proximity to a location where the offender 
 20.26  lives or is employed, or which the offender visits or is likely 
 20.27  to visit on a regular basis, other than the location of the 
 20.28  offender's outpatient treatment program; and 
 20.29     (2) the types of interaction which ordinarily occur at that 
 20.30  location and other circumstances indicate that contact with the 
 20.31  offender is reasonably certain. 
 20.32     (d) A law enforcement agency or official who discloses 
 20.33  information under this subdivision shall make a good faith 
 20.34  effort to make the notification within 14 days of receipt of a 
 20.35  confirmed address from the Department of Corrections indicating 
 20.36  that the offender will be, or has been, released from 
 21.1   confinement, or accepted for supervision, or has moved to a new
