Sexual predators and offenders are in violation of similar offenses, but there are several key differences between them. “Sexual predator” applies to anyone convicted of a sexual offense committed from October 1, 1993 forward. “Sexual offender” applies to anyone who has committed a sexual offense on any date and is being released on or after October 1, 1997 from the sanctions imposed on them for their crime. A sanction could be anything from a fine or probation to parole or community control.
