dc.description.abstractAccording to their stated objectives, the Dangerous Prisoners (Sexual Offenders) Act 2003 (Qld) and the Dangerous Sexual Offenders Act 2006 (WA) are aimed at protecting the community by detaining dangerous sex offenders after the expiration of their sentences. This paper questions the scientific validity and reliability of psychiatric assessments of sex offender dangerousness. It also considers whether preventative detention imposes additional punishment on sex offenders and/or punishes them for their propensities.en
