This volume is the first book-length treatment of how sex offender registration and notification (SORN) laws work, who they cover, and what we know about their effects. Assembling research from leading experts, the book is a critically important resource for policy makers, researchers, journalists, judges, and legal advocates.
Despite being in existence for over a quarter century, costing multiple millions of dollars and affecting the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals, sex offender registration and notification (SORN) laws have yet to be subject to a book-length treatment of their empirical dimensions - their premises, coverage, and impact on public safety. This volume, edited by Wayne Logan and J.J. Prescott, assembles the leading researchers in the field to provide an in-depth look at what have come to be known as ''Megan''s Laws'', offering a social science-based analysis of one of the most important, and controversial, criminal justice system initiatives undertaken in modern times.
