SC H3028

Allows courts to place individuals charged with domestic violence offenses on active electronic monitoring in lieu of bond or as an additional bond condition

Requires the monitoring device to be body-worn, track location at least once every minute 24/7, and provide victims with real-time access to the defendant's location

Mandates defendants pay for the cost of the monitoring device and its operation, though law enforcement may waive fees in cases of severe financial hardship

Requires defendants to report any incidental damage to the device within two hours, with penalties for intentional tampering, removal, or destruction of the device

Assigns responsibility for device placement and program oversight to the law enforcement agency with jurisdiction over the offense
