Sex Offender Registry
The Nebraska Sex Offender Registration Act was initiated on January 1, 1997 and requires sex offenders to register for a period of 10 years. The Nebraska State Patrol maintains a Registry of Sex Offenders and assesses the offender's risk level and provides community notification accordingly. The risk level is determined by a risk assessment instrument developed by the University of Nebraska Law/Psychology Program.
Level 1: Risk level is low, law enforcement agencies likely to
encounter the sex offender shall be notified.
Level 2: Risk level is moderate, in addition to notifying local
law enforcement, all schools, daycare centers, and
religious and youth orginizations, as defined herein
that are located within the registrants county of
residence shall ne notified.
Level 3: Risk level is high, in addition to notifying local law
enforcement, schools, daycare centers, and religious
and youth orginizations, the public will be notified
through news releases directed to the media within
the state. Additional news releases, community
meetings or direct contact with neighbors may be
utilized by local law enforcement to provide notice
in addition to the State Patrol news release.
