Is the lack of decline in offenses (post-public registries) due to the ineffectiveness of registries themselves or is it due to the failure of some parents to utilize them as a resource?

Neither. It's because of two other reasons. One, parents rely on the registry and local idiots (some wearing badges) to keep them informed of the offenders in the 'hood. And two, the offenses aren't being perpetrated by the people on the registry and reliance on the registry makes it that much easier for them. If Bob screams and yells loud enough at the PTA meetings about Mr. Jones the exhibitionist, maybe nobody will realize he's molesting his daughter and all her friends during sleepovers.

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.
