AZ: Hostilities, Sex Crime Allegations Slow Arizona Registry Reform

April 12, 2019, 1:45 pm

Reform in Arizona looks far less certain after the bill aimed at increasing eligibility for removal from the registry appears to be missing from the house agenda.

House Speaker Rusty Bowers, R-Mesa, sponsored House Bill 2613, which he crafted with assistance from the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office. The bill would expand the list of crimes for which sex offenders could petition to be removed from the registry, while imposing new restrictions on people who seek removal.

This comes after a decades-old sex crime allegation against Arizona Congressman David Stringer.
