    • Assessing the Practical and Monetary Efficacy of New Jersey's Megan's Law, 1972-2007

    Metadata Updated: February 13, 2023

    The study investigated New Jersey's Megan's Law and its specific deterrence effect on re-offending, including the level of general and sexual offense recidivism, the nature of sexual re-offenses, and time to first re-arrest for sexual and non-sexual re-offenses (i.e., community tenure). Data were collected on 550 sexual offenders released during the years 1990 to 2000.
