An Act relative to home confinement during parole and probation for habitual criminals

This bill requires habitual criminals in Massachusetts who are on probation or parole to serve their time under home confinement instead of in the community. The law directly affects individuals classified as habitual criminals under existing state statutes by mandating that their supervision occurs within their residences. Under this provision, these individuals must remain at home for the entire duration of their probation or parole period. The measure does not specify additional conditions for home confinement but establishes it as a mandatory requirement for this specific group of offenders.
