The bill amends RCW 9.94A.501 to expand the supervision responsibilities of the Department of Corrections to include individuals convicted of stalking under RCW 9A.46.110. This addition is marked by the insertion of new legal language that specifies the department's obligation to supervise any individual convicted of this offense. The bill also clarifies that the department is not authorized to supervise individuals sentenced to community custody or probation unless they fall under the specified categories requiring supervision.
Additionally, the bill maintains existing provisions regarding the supervision of individuals convicted of various sexual offenses, domestic violence offenses, and other serious crimes. It outlines the criteria for supervision based on risk assessments and specific convictions, ensuring that individuals deemed high-risk or with certain convictions are monitored appropriately. The amendments also include adjustments to the numbering of subsections due to the new insertion, ensuring clarity in the legal text.
