Community supervision and the management of sex offenders pose great concern to parole and probation officers, correctional administrators and the general public. This area, however, seems to create more questions than answers. Every day, many front-line supervision officers ask themselves things such as," What should I be asking this sex offender who is now in my office? How are these answers related to risk?
