CRIMINAL/JUSTICE: Creates the Louisiana Electronic Monitoring and GPS Oversight Task Force

This bill establishes the Louisiana Electronic Monitoring and GPS Oversight Task Force to study how electronic and GPS tracking devices are used for court supervision and public safety. The task force will examine current practices regarding reporting, accountability, infrastructure, and standards, then submit a report with recommendations to the legislature. Its membership includes representatives from the legislature, law enforcement, courts, victim advocates, and technology experts to ensure diverse input. The group is designed to advise state agencies and identify gaps in the system without replacing the authority of existing criminal justice organizations.
