JUVENILES: Requests the Louisiana Department of Justice to issue a report on juveniles who are subject to electronic monitoring conditions

This bill requests the Louisiana Department of Justice to create an annual report on juveniles using electronic monitoring as a condition of their supervision. The report would include anonymized data on the number of monitored juveniles, violation rates, demographic information, and success rates compared to other supervision methods. It aims to provide the legislature and public with clearer insights into how effective electronic monitoring is for juvenile offenders. The initial report must be submitted before the 2027 legislative session, with future reports due by March 1 each year.
