SB 27 makes it harder for sex offenders to get removed from South Dakota's sex offender registry by increasing the waiting period from 5 to 10 years for Tier I offenders and narrowing which crimes qualify for removal eligibility. The bill also eliminates removal eligibility for certain offenses that were previously allowed and repeals several existing removal provisions from state law.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
