Joining Bill Bales is Carlton Butler, GPS Program Administrator for the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency.
The Florida State University study of 5,000 offenders indicates a 31 percent reduction in rates of failure while under supervision including decreases in absconding, revocations and new criminal activity.
