    18-8317.  REQUIREMENT FOR PSYCHOSEXUAL EVALUATIONS UPON RELEASE. Every
offender who meets the criteria set forth in section 18-8314, Idaho Code, and
has been considered by the board and deemed appropriate for review for violent
sexual predator designation, shall submit to psychosexual evaluation. Every
incarcerated offender whose evaluation under section 18-8316, Idaho Code,
states that the offender is a probable violent sexual predator, shall submit
to a psychosexual evaluation and shall be reviewed by the board. The purpose
of the evaluation is for assessing risk of reoffense and to determine whether
the offender should be designated as a violent sexual predator. If the
offender is incarcerated, the evaluation is to be performed prior to release
from incarceration. These evaluations shall be performed either by a certified
evaluator as defined in section 18-8303, Idaho Code, or a mental health
professional employed by the department of correction. The individual
performing an evaluation under this section shall not be a member of the
sexual offender classification board at the time the evaluation is performed.
The individual performing the evaluation shall be disqualified from providing
any treatment ordered or attached as a condition of parole, unless waived by
the department of correction. An evaluation conducted pursuant to this section
shall be done in accordance with the standards established by rule of the
board pursuant to section 18-8314, Idaho Code.
