Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey prosecutors to assess an offender’s risk of re-offense under Megan’s Law before they are released from prison. Prosecutors will consult with an advisory council and develop guidelines to determine the level of risk, which will then dictate the type of notification provided to the public and community organizations. The goal is to better protect the public by identifying and managing potential risks associated with sex offenders released into the community.
