34 U.S.C. § 20941 — Federal assistance with respect to violations of registration requirements
submitted 20 years ago by Pub. L. 109-248 to r/title-34-CRIME-CONTROL-AND-LAW-ENFORCEMENT · 86 words · no verdicts yet
The Attorney General must use federal law enforcement, including the U.S. Marshals Service, to help jurisdictions catch sex offenders who break registration rules. Such an offender counts legally as a fugitive for Marshals Service purposes. Congress could fund this work for fiscal years 2007 through 2009.
The Attorney General shall use the resources of Federal law enforcement, including the United States Marshals Service, to assist jurisdictions in locating and apprehending sex offenders who violate sex offender* registration requirements. For the purposes of section 566(e)(1)(B) of title 28, a sex offender who violates a sex offender registration requirement shall be deemed a fugitive.
There are authorized to be appropriated such sums as may be necessary for fiscal years 2007 through 2009 to implement this section.
