The remaining offenders were supervised (67 offenders). Of the conditional offenders, 14 were Interstate Compact Offenders who were supervised by our department on behalf of another state. On June 30, 2011 there were 484 offenders enrolled in the electronic monitoring program. Most offenders (251) were assigned to the mandatory program (satellite based monitoring is required for the person’s natural life), 233 were assigned to the conditional program (satellite based monitoring is required for a period of time ordered by the court). Of the 484 offenders enrolled, 248 were unsupervised. All offenders enrolled at the end of the fiscal year were monitored via active GPS. (2) CASELOADS OF PROBATION OFFICERS ASSIGNED TO GPS/SEX OFFENDER SUPERVISION Due to the relatively small numbers of offenders under GPS supervision, DCC utilized existing resources to establish specialized officers in some districts. These officers specialize in the supervision of sex offenders, including those who do not have the GPS requirements. Appendix A on pages 7-9 provides information concerning the caseloads of officers assigned to supervise sex offenders monitored by GPS. Case management practices differ across the state, requiring many areas to use various types of blended caseloads where offenders of different types are combined and managed within a caseload. Factors such as geography, the number of different offender population types and their admission rates to supervision, and the number of officer resources impact decisions concerning local case management practices. 3
In addition, two officers work in the GPS administrative office and handle the GPS lifetimetracking offender population which consists of certain sex offenders who are no longer under Community Corrections supervision, but who were legislatively mandated to be tracked for the remainder of their lives. These officers handle cases statewide, and at the close of the fiscal year were responsible for monitoring 248 offenders. Of these 248 offenders, 69 were new enrollees for the fiscal year, while 179 were placed on GPS prior to the beginning of the FY 2010-2011. (3) VIOLATIONS During FY 2010-2011, offenders under GPS supervision were cited for 146 violations. However, only 27 of the 136 (17.7%) offenders enrolled in the program during FY 2010- 2011 were responsible for all violations. There were no violations for absconding. The table below represents the type and number of violations committed by program enrollees during the fiscal year.
