Tier Classification in Shiawassee County

Michigan assigns all registered sex offenders to a tier under MCL 28.725a. The tier is based on the offense of conviction and is set by the Michigan State Police at initial registration. It does not change based on location, time, or behavior after conviction. In Shiawassee County, the same three-tier structure applies as everywhere in the state.

Tier I applies to lower-level offenses such as fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct under MCL 750.520e. Tier I registrants verify annually and stay on the registry for 15 years. Tier II covers mid-range offenses including second-degree criminal sexual conduct under MCL 750.520c. These registrants verify every six months and remain registered for 25 years. Tier III is assigned to the most serious crimes. First-degree criminal sexual conduct under MCL 750.520b, which typically involves penetration with significant aggravating circumstances, falls into this category. Tier III registrants verify quarterly and remain on the public registry for life. No change to tier assignment can be made at the county level.
