New Jersey S3884 requires expedited risk assessment and community notification for certain registered sex offenders moving to the state from another.
New Jersey S3884 revises Megan's Law by establishing procedures for expedited notification when a sex offender who is registered in another jurisdiction moves into New Jersey. The county prosecutor evaluates the offender's registration record and determines the risk of re-offense. If the risk is moderate or high, community notification is provided within 72 hours of the offender first residing in the state. The offender can request judicial review of the prosecutor's determination, in which case a hearing is conducted on an expedited basis.
