“…The information that is published on official websites varies from state to state, but may include an offender’s name, their date of birth, residential address, place of employment, drivers license number, a description of their motor vehicle including the license plate number, details of past convictions, a physical description, and a photograph (Tewksbury & Jennings, 2010; Thompson & Greek, 2010). Similar information is published on a website maintained by the South Korean government (Shin & Lee, 2005). However, in contrast to the US, where information is typically released on an ad hoc basis, in South Korea, information is released biannually and only remains on the website for a 6-month period (Shin & Lee, 2005).…”
