The Sex Offender Registry

If convicted of a sex crime in Georgia, you will be required to serve your punishment- prison, probation, etc, but one of the potential consequences of a conviction is you may be required to register as a sex offender.

There are many different aspects of being labeled as a sex offender that many people don’t know or fully understand. Part of being on this list is that you will be required to undergo a mandatory psychosexual assessment which more often than not leads to a treatment recommendation based upon your conviction of a sex crime. This requires additional time and expense that isn’t often associated with other crimes.

At some point, all sex offenders are assessed and assigned a level. This level is designed to help the legal system determine your risk to society. There are three levels that are defined as such:

A convicted sex offender may have restrictions about where he or she can live (e.g. can’t live within 1000 feet of a school, church, park, or place where children congregate), and there may be restrictions on where that individual can work as well. Clearly, these restrictions can severely limit the person’s ability to earn an income and may affect every aspect of that person’s life.
