This report is comprised of these sections: at a glance; scope; background; findings -- electronic monitoring is not being used on the most dangerous offenders, available data indicates that electronic monitoring is effective in supervising offenders, and active GPS provides greater surveillance of high-risk offenders, but an outcome study would help determine cost-effectiveness; and conclusions and recommendations.
