South Carolina H3277 restricts sex offenders from contact with minor children and outlines conditions for supervised visitation.

South Carolina H3277 amends the state code to prohibit convicted sex offenders from having contact with their minor children. The bill mandates that any contact must follow a safety plan based on U.S. Justice Department guidelines, supervised by a clinical professional. It also requires offenders to report their children's names and addresses to the court and mandates the circuit solicitor to inform nonoffending parents about safeguarding measures. The restrictions can be lifted if the offender completes specified therapy and treatment, and a psychologist confirms remission of prior diagnoses.
