§ 149. Released inmates; notification to sheriff, police, and district attorney. In the case of any inmate convicted of a felony, it shall be the duty of the department at least forty-eight hours prior to the release of any such inmate from a correctional facility to notify the chief of police both of the city, town or village in which such inmate proposes to reside and of the city, town or village in which such inmate resided at the time of his or her conviction and the district attorney of the county where the offense for which the inmate is incarcerated was prosecuted, of the contemplated release of such inmate, informing such chief of police and the district attorney of the name and aliases of the inmate, the address at which he or she proposes to reside, the amount of time remaining to be served, if any, on the full term for which he or she was sentenced, and the nature of the crime for which he or she was sentenced, transmitting at the same time to the chief of police a copy of such inmate's fingerprints and photograph. Where such inmate proposes to reside outside of a city, such notification shall be sent to the sheriff of the county in which such inmate proposes to reside. Such notification may be provided by electronic transmission to those willing jurisdictions that have the capability of receiving electronic transmission notification. Any chief of police or sheriff who receives notification of a released inmate pursuant to this section may request and receive from the division of criminal justice services a report containing a summary of such inmate's criminal record.
