Electronic House Arrest: An Examination of Citizen Attitudes

Michael P. Brown

Preston Elrod

This study reports the findings of a survey of attitudes toward the use of electronic house arrest. Data are from a sample of 1,000 randomly selected households from a voter registration list in Oneida County, New York. The return rate was 56%. The results indicate strong, yet conditional support for the use of electronic telemetry to control offenders. Level of support is related to how and why electronic house arrest is used as a criminal sanction, offense seriousness, and the extent to which criminals are monitored.
