home confinement; eligibility; electronic monitoring

HB 2770 establishes a home confinement program for eligible Arizona inmates, allowing them to serve sentences at home under electronic monitoring instead of in prison. It applies to inmates who have served at least one year of their sentence, committed specific non-violent felonies (like certain class 4-6 offenses), and meet other criteria like no violent history or active warrants. Key provisions require electronic monitoring, victim notification and feedback before approval, a monthly supervision fee (with ability to waive based on inability to pay), and a 1:50 officer-to-participant ratio. The program phases in starting December 2026 based on remaining sentence time, directly affecting qualifying inmates, victims, and corrections staff managing the program.
