SB2791

Establishes a persistent domestic violence offender registry within the Mississippi Department of Public Safety.

The Purple Angels Law creates a registry for persistent domestic violence offenders within the Mississippi Department of Public Safety. It defines terms such as "persistent domestic violence offender" and "domestic abuse victim." The law requires courts to order registration for qualifying offenders and mandates clerks of court to transmit conviction data. A $250 registration fee is assessed, with $50 going to the Department of Public Safety and $50 to the State Department of Health's Domestic Violence Fund.
