Current through Register 1531, September 27, 2024

803 CMR 1.00 sets forth guidelines pertaining to the registration and classification of sex offenders, and the resulting dissemination of sex offender registry information in accordance with the law based on the offender's level of risk of reoffense and degree of dangerousness posed to the public. 803 CMR 1.00 additionally provides a process for the removal from the sex offender registry of those individuals not required to register. The Sex Offender Registry Board (the "Board") may from time to time and in its discretion develop, implement, and/or amend its policies, procedures, and protocols to this end. The Board will exercise sound judgment and apply its expertise when making any registration or classification determination as required in 803 CMR 1.00.

803 CMR 1.00 sets forth the registration and classification procedures and guidelines the Board uses to determine whether a convicted or adjudicated sex offender may be required to register as a sex offender and, if so, the offender's level of risk of reoffense and degree of dangerousness posed to the public.
