HB 1327 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Sex offender registry; include crime of indecent exposure.

HB 1327 would amend Mississippi's sex offender registry law to require individuals convicted of indecent exposure (specifically under Section 97-29-31) to register as sex offenders. This change directly affects people convicted of indecent exposure in Mississippi, adding it to the list of offenses that trigger mandatory registration under Section 45-33-23. The bill’s key mechanism is updating the legal definition of "sex offense" to include indecent exposure, requiring registrants to provide address, fingerprints, and photographs to the Mississippi Department of Public Safety. The bill died in committee in February 2025 and did not become law.
