An Act To Establish a Bracelet Monitoring Program for Persons Convicted of Minor Crimes

CONCEPT DRAFT SUMMARY

This bill is a concept draft pursuant to Joint Rule 208.

The bill proposes to create a state bracelet program similar to the one now in the counties. The state program would also be able to accept qualified inmates from county jails that do not live in the county where incarcerated. This bill would also require that a prisoner participate in the New Horizons Academy program.
