Summary
This bill removes the requirement that a Tier III youth offender pay for the cost of their electronic monitoring system. Currently youth adjudicated as Tier III sex offenders have the same financial obligation of $240 per month ($8 per day) as adult offenders. However, they rarely have opportunities for employment given their age and other obstacles related to their probation, and/or need to complete school. The Division of Youth Rehabilitative Services is spending a disproportionate amount of time and staff resources to track and attempt to recover payment from these offenders with little success. Additionally, no other juvenile probation “service” requires youth or their families to pay for their treatment and support interventions.
Title
An Act To Amend Title 11 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Fines, Costs, Penalties And Forfeitures.
