Bill > A3348

Introduced Session

This bill provides that any crime of official misconduct involving the disclosure of a domestic violence or sexual assault victim's personal information is a crime of the second degree. Under current law, a public servant is guilty of official misconduct when, with purpose to obtain a benefit for himself or another or to injure or to deprive another of a benefit: he knowingly commits an unauthorized exercise of his official functions; or he knowingly refrains from performing a duty which is imposed upon him by law or is clearly inherent in the nature of his office. Official misconduct generally is a second degree crime, unless the benefit obtained or sought to be obtained, or of which another is deprived or sought to be deprived, is of a value of $200 or less, then it is a third degree crime. A crime of the second degree is punishable by five to 10 years imprisonment, a fine of up to $150,000, or both. A crime of the third degree is punishable by three to five years imprisonment, a fine of up to $15,000, or both. Under this bill, any crime of official misconduct involving the disclosure of a domestic violence or sexual assault victim's personal information would be a crime of the second degree, regardless of the amount of the benefit obtained or sought to be obtained, or of which another is deprived or sought to be deprived.
