HB5563

Establishes a registry for persistent domestic violence offenders in Illinois.

The bill creates a registry for persistent domestic violence offenders within the Illinois State Police. It mandates that individuals convicted of offenses against domestic abuse victims, with at least one prior conviction, must register as persistent offenders. The registry includes the offender's name, date of birth, conviction date, county of conviction, and a photograph. The registry is accessible to the public online but excludes personal identifiers like addresses and social security numbers.
