blogs.kansas.com: New law will require sex offenders be registered for life.
A bill signed into law Tuesday by Governor Mark Parkinson will require people convicted of certain sex crimes register as sex offenders for life.
Kansas law currently requires convicted sex offenders be listed on the registry for 10 years. The bill takes effect July 1. Under the new law, the following sex crimes would require lifetime registration; the attempt, conspiracy, or criminal solicitation to commit aggravated trafficking, rape, aggravated indecent liberties with a child, aggravated criminal sodomy, promoting prostitution if the prostitute is less than 14 years of age, and sexual exploitation of a child.
