Louisiana proposes a domestic abuse repeat offender registry with public alerts and annual fees.
Louisiana lawmakers are considering HB86, a bill by Rep. Joy Walters to create a statewide Domestic Abuse Repeat Offender Registry.
It would require individuals convicted of a second or subsequent domestic-related offense—such as abuse battery, stalking, or violating protective orders—to register with law enforcement, with mandatory notification at sentencing or release.
The public would access the registry, with residents able to receive email alerts for offender movements, jobs, or school enrollments.
Offenders would pay $250 annually, funding registry operations and victim services.
Registration periods would increase with each offense, potentially becoming lifelong.
Supporters say the system, modeled after sex offender registries, would improve public safety and protect victims.
