Several changes to correctional facility law are made by this bill. It makes implementing a "direct supervision" model in prisons — where staff interact directly with inmates rather than observing from behind barriers — optional rather than required, and removes the existing requirement that the Department of Corrections publicly report on direct supervision implementation. The bill also expands the crime of unlawfully operating a drone near a correctional facility to include using a drone to remove items from prison property, making that offense a third-degree felony. Finally, the bill removes unpaid probation and parole supervision fees from an offender's official criminal debt record and instead requires the Department of Corrections to hand those unpaid fees over to the Office of State Debt Collection when an offender's sentence ends.
