HOW DOES THE PUBLIC NOTIFICATION SYSTEM WORK?
The Nebraska Sex Offender Registration Act has mandated a notification process that is based on a three-tiered risk system. All registrants will be classified into one of three risk levels according to their risk to re-offend sexually; low risk/level 1, moderate risk/level 2, or high risk/level 3. The risk level is determined by a risk assessment instrument developed by the University of Nebraska Law/Psychology Department. The Sex Offender Registration Act then dictates what entities will receive the information about the sex offender. If the risk level is low/level 1, law enforcement agencies shall be notified. If the risk level is moderate/level 2, in addition to the notifying local law enforcement, schools, daycare centers, and religious and youth organizations in which the registrant resides shall be notified.
