In a 3 year study tracking 9,961 released sex offenders: • 5.3% were rearrested for a new sex crime. • 3.5% were reconvicted for a new sex crime. • 2.2% were rearrested for a sex crime against a child. • 3.3% of child molesters were rearrested for a new sex crime against a child http://www.sofarproject.com/facts-and-info/recidi…— October 27, 2011 12:37 p.m.
