Expands "Daniel's Law" to prohibit disclosure of personal identifying information of victim support advocates and victim support care providers.
This bill expands New Jersey's "Daniel's Law" to protect victim support advocates and victim support care providers by allowing them to request that their home addresses and unpublished phone numbers not be disclosed publicly. It establishes a process where authorized representatives (like legal guardians) can request removal of such information from the internet, and prohibits posting or sharing these details online without a court order or law enforcement need. Violating these restrictions would be a crime, with reckless violations classified as a fourth-degree offense and intentional violations as a third-degree offense. The law also exempts news media from liability for past publications and maintains telephone directory exemptions unless the individual has specifically requested to be unpublished.
