Using adult arrest data from throughtrend analyses modeled the intervention effects of the year South Carolina's SORN policy was initially implemented and the year the policy was revised to include online registration. This decline equated to averting approximately three new sex crime arrests per month. Comparison analyses with serious nonsex offenses against persons assault and robbery failed to identify similar effects, suggesting that the effect is attributable to sex offense - specific legislation. Findings are compared with the existing literature on general deterrent effects of SORN and discussed in the context of research examining other effects of SORN.
