One of the most well known pieces of legislation created in response to a particular sex offender crime is Megan’s Law. The federal law requires sex offenders to register with local authorities in the city or town in which they reside. Once a sex offender registers, local authorities may inform the local community that a sex offender lives nearby. The goal of Megan’s Law, and similar legislation around the nation, is to manage sex offenders once they re-enter the community. Management programs also aim to prevent recidivism and assist sex offenders with reintegration. Managing sex offenders is a complex matter.
