Creating a domestic violence offense registry.

Summary

The bill requires courts to order anyone convicted of a qualifying domestic‑violence crime to be listed on a state‑maintained, searchable website. The Washington State Patrol will publish basic identifying information, and the registry will remain in effect for a set period based on the severity of the offense. It aims to give the public easier access to information that could help prevent future abuse.
