In the Matter of Registrant N.B. (A-94-13; 073613)
A 2004 amendment defining the term “sole sex offense” indicates that the household/incest exception applies to the conviction here: a single conviction for a violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:14-2(b), “under circumstances in which the offender [is] related to the victim by blood or affinity to the third degree,” notwithstanding the offender’s admission to multiple acts of sexual contact against the victim. Therefore, N.B. is within the household/incest exception of N.J.S.A. 2C:7-13(d)(2). The matter is remanded to the trial court for a determination as to whether N.B.’s registration record should be made available to the public, notwithstanding the applicability of the household/incest exception.
