Fiscal Detail and Notes
Extending the registration for violent sex offenders to persons convicted after January 1, 1982 could create additional days in county jail or at state facilities at the Department of Corrections.  The exact impact can not be determined since it is unknown how many offenders would not register as well as how long they would be sentenced.  Cost per day at county jails is $87.87.  Cost per day at state facilities is $91.29.
