The recidivism of sex offenders such as the feminicide Hermes Ávila Vázquez -now charged with murdering another woman while on an extended pass- and Carlos López Maysonet -charged with raping an elderly woman while on probationary- again highlight doubts about the effectiveness of the rehabilitation processes in the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (DCR), a situation in which experts stressed the importance of maximizing the use of the Sex Offender Registry as a warning measure.
