Creates domestic violence Internet registry for certain public access; mandates counseling and community service and increases fines for certain domestic violence offenders.
This bill (A3292) creates a public online registry for domestic violence offenders in New Jersey, making detailed personal information accessible to the public. It requires courts to mandate domestic violence counseling (6 months for first offense, up to 2 years for repeat offenses) and community service (minimum 1 year) for convicted offenders, while increasing fines to $500 for first offenses, $1,000 for second, and $5,000 for third or subsequent offenses. The registry includes offenders' names, aliases, offense details, physical descriptions, photos, vehicle info, and addresses, with removal options after 2, 7, or 20 years (excluding severe crimes like homicide or sexual assault). The bill also specifies that the registry is separate from existing systems and includes procedures for address updates and removal petitions.
