Megan’s Law doesn’t work

“For the past 15 years, the public has been left with a false sense of security. A federally funded study has determined that Megan’s Law does not work.Conducted by independent psychologists along with staff from the state Department of Corrections’ Office of Policy and Planning, this comprehensive study looked at 21 years of sex offense rates. It confirms in New Jersey what other studies have found elsewhere. Megan’s Law “has no demonstrable effect in reducing sexual reoffenses.”“
