Title 57.

§ 581  Sex Offenders Registration Act.

A. Sections 581 et seq. of this title shall be known and may be
cited as the “Sex Offenders Registration Act”.

B. The Legislature finds that sex offenders who commit other
predatory acts against children and persons who prey on others as a
result of mental illness pose a high risk of re-offending after
release from custody. The Legislature further finds that the
privacy interest of persons adjudicated guilty of these crimes is
less important than the state’s interest in public safety. The
Legislature additionally finds that a system of registration will
permit law enforcement officials to identify and alert the public
when necessary for protecting public safety.

of law or threats to public safety. Before releasing information to
an Internet entity the Department shall require an Internet entity
that requests information to submit to the Department the name,

specified in this subsection, an Internet entity shall not publish
or in any way disclose or redisclose any information provided to it

Title 57 of the Oklahoma Statutes.”

K. The State Commissioner of Health is authorized to distribute
information from the sex offender registry to any nursing home or
