Persons subject to stays of adjudication in criminal sexual conduct cases to register as predatory offenders requirement

Minnesota Senate Bill 459 (SF 459) requires individuals who receive a "stay of adjudication" (a delayed sentence) for certain criminal sexual conduct offenses to register as predatory offenders. This applies to people charged under specific statutes including Minnesota’s criminal sexual conduct laws (609.342-609.3453) or related offenses like using minors in sexual performances (617.246). The bill amends Minnesota Statutes § 243.166 to add this registration requirement, overriding standard rules that typically apply only to those convicted. It does not apply to juveniles if a court determines good cause to waive registration. The change directly affects individuals avoiding formal conviction through stays of adjudication for these specific sex offenses.
