Illinois expand sex offender registry law aims to curb repeat offenses
Illinois police officials cite a new law signed by Gov George Ryan extending registration for convicted sex offenders. Offenders must register every 90 days for life if deemed sexually dangerous, with added penalties for failure to register, and offenders on parole or probation face revocation and possible return to jail. Public access to offender lists is allowed, with verification and appointment rules varying by jurisdiction.
