Abstrakt: The article discusses the study regarding the implications of the legislation by several states in the U.S. restricting sex offenders from living in close proximity to certain areas to counter recidivism and increase community safety concerns. It also analyses the impact to communities and criminal justice system. It examines the relationship of the effects of the two proposed statewide residence restriction laws of the four of the six South Carolina counties with the highest number of registered sex offenders.
