MR. JEFF LOGAN, staff to Representative Joe Green, presented HB

the term "escape" to include tampering with or disabling an
electronic monitoring device. MR. LOGAN said the bill is supported
by the Legislature and the Administration as well as the Judiciary.
Number 75
SENATOR MILLER asked what type of offender would be eligible for
this. MR. LOGAN replied it would be for white collar or
environmental offenders or possibly for people who have already
served some time. SENATOR MILLER said this would not be appropriate
for some types of prisoners.
