2 period of strict supervision should be specified in statute
3 and include any attempt, solicitation, or conspiracy to commit

1 (b) Is sentenced as a habitual or violent habitual
2 offender or a violent career criminal pursuant to s. 775.084
3 based on an offense committed before July 1, 1999; or

5 or former s. 775.23, based on an offense committed before July

7
8 shall, upon reaching the tentative release date or provisional
9 release date, whichever is earlier, as established by the
10 Department of Corrections, be released under conditional
11 release supervision subject to specified terms and conditions,
12 including payment of the cost of supervision pursuant to s.
13 948.09. Such supervision shall be applicable to all sentences
14 within the overall term of sentences if an inmate's overall
15 term of sentences includes one or more sentences that are
16 eligible for conditional release supervision as provided
17 herein. Effective July 1, 1994, and applicable for offenses
18 committed on or after that date, the commission may require,
19 as a condition of conditional release, that the releasee make
20 payment of the debt due and owing to a county or municipal
21 detention facility under s. 951.032 for medical care,
22 treatment, hospitalization, or transportation received by the
23 releasee while in that detention facility. The commission, in
24 determining whether to order such repayment and the amount of
25 such repayment, shall consider the amount of the debt, whether
26 there was any fault of the institution for the medical
27 expenses incurred, the financial resources of the releasee,
28 the present and potential future financial needs and earning
29 ability of the releasee, and dependents, and other appropriate
30 factors. If an inmate has received a term of probation or
31 community control supervision to be served after release from
6
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
Florida House of Representatives - 1999 HB 2005
180-417-99
1 incarceration, the period of probation or community control
2 must be substituted for the conditional release supervision. A
3 panel of no fewer than two commissioners shall establish the
4 terms and conditions of any such release. If the offense was a
5 controlled substance violation, the conditions shall include a
6 requirement that the offender submit to random substance abuse
7 testing intermittently throughout the term of conditional
8 release supervision, upon the direction of the correctional
9 probation officer as defined in s. 943.10(3). The commission
10 shall also determine whether the terms and conditions of such
11 release have been violated and whether such violation warrants
12 revocation of the conditional release.
13 (3) Any inmate who has been convicted of committing or
14 attempting, soliciting, or conspiring to commit any offense on
15 or after July 1, 1999, shall, upon reaching the tentative
16 release date established by the Department of Corrections, be
17 released under conditional release supervision subject to the
18 terms and conditions determined by the commission as provided
19 in this subsection and subsection (5). Such supervision shall
20 be applicable to all sentences within the overall term of
21 sentences if an inmate's overall term of sentences includes
22 one or more sentences that are eligible for conditional
23 release supervision as provided herein. If any inmate placed
24 on conditional release supervision is also subject to
25 probation or community control, resulting from a probationary
26 or community control split sentence within the overall term of
27 sentences, the Department of Corrections shall supervise such
28 person according to the conditions imposed by the court, and
29 the commission shall defer to such supervision. If the court
30 revokes probation or community control, and resentences the
31 offender to a term of incarceration, such revocation also
7
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
Florida House of Representatives - 1999 HB 2005
180-417-99
1 constitutes a sufficient basis for the revocation of the
2 conditional release supervision on any nonprobationary or
3 noncommunity control sentence, without further hearing by the
4 commission. If any such supervision on any nonprobationary or
5 noncommunity control sentence is revoked, such revocation may
6 result in a forfeiture of all gain-time, and the commission
7 may revoke the resulting deferred conditional release
8 supervision or take other action it considers appropriate. If
9 the term of conditional release supervision exceeds that of
10 the probation or community control, then upon expiration of
11 the probation or community control, authority for the
12 supervision shall revert to the commission, and the
13 supervision shall be subject to the conditions of the
14 commission.
15 (4) A panel of no fewer than two commissioners shall
16 establish the terms and conditions of any conditional release.
17 If the offense was a controlled substance violation, the
18 conditions shall include a requirement that the offender
19 submit to random substance abuse testing intermittently
20 throughout the term of conditional release supervision, upon
21 the direction of the correctional probation officer as defined
22 in s. 943.10(3). The commission shall also determine whether
23 the terms and conditions of such release have been violated
24 and whether such violation warrants revocation of the
25 conditional release.
26 (5)(3) As part of the conditional release process, the
27 commission shall determine:
28 (a) The amount of reparation or restitution.
29 (b) The consequences of the offense as reported by the
30 aggrieved party.
31

180-417-99
1 (c) The aggrieved party's fear of the inmate or
2 concerns about the release of the inmate.
3 (6)(4) The commission shall provide to the aggrieved
4 party information regarding the manner in which notice of any
5 developments concerning the status of the inmate during the
6 term of conditional release may be requested.
7 (7)(5) Within 180 days prior to the tentative release
8 date or provisional release date, whichever is earlier, a
9 representative of the commission shall interview the inmate.
10 The commission representative shall review the inmate's
11 program participation, disciplinary record, psychological and
12 medical records, and any other information pertinent to the
13 impending release. A commission representative shall conduct
14 a personal interview with the inmate for the purpose of
15 determining the details of the inmate's release plan,
16 including the inmate's planned residence and employment. The
17 results of the interview must be forwarded to the commission
18 in writing.
19 (8)(6) Upon receipt of notice as required under s.
20 947.175, the commission shall conduct a review of the inmate's
21 record for the purpose of establishing the terms and
22 conditions of the conditional release. The commission may
23 impose any special conditions it considers warranted from its
24 review of the record. If the commission determines that the
25 inmate is eligible for release under this section, the
26 commission shall enter an order establishing the length of
27 supervision and the conditions attendant thereto. However, an
28 inmate who has been convicted of a violation of chapter 794 or
29 found by the court to be a sexual predator is subject to the
30 maximum level of supervision provided, with the mandatory
31 conditions as required in subsection (9) (7), and that
9
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
Florida House of Representatives - 1999 HB 2005
180-417-99
1 supervision shall continue through the end of the releasee's
2 original court-imposed sentence. The length of supervision
3 must not exceed the maximum penalty imposed by the court.
4 (9)(7)(a) Any inmate who is convicted of a crime
5 committed on or after October 1, 1995, or who has been
6 previously convicted of a crime committed on or after October
7 1, 1995, in violation of chapter 794, s. 800.04, s. 827.071,
8 or s. 847.0145, and is subject to conditional release
9 supervision, shall have, in addition to any other conditions
10 imposed, the following special conditions imposed by the
11 commission:
12 1. A mandatory curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. The court
13 may designate another 8-hour period if the offender's
14 employment precludes the above specified time, and such
15 alternative is recommended by the Department of Corrections.
16 If the court determines that imposing a curfew would endanger
17 the victim, the court may consider alternative sanctions.
18 2. If the victim was under the age of 18, a
19 prohibition on living within 1,000 feet of a school, day care
20 center, park, playground, or other place where children

24 specifically trained to treat sex offenders, at the releasee's

27 offender shall participate in other appropriate therapy.
28 4. A prohibition on any contact with the victim,
29 directly or indirectly, including through a third person,
30 unless approved by the victim, the offender's therapist, and
31 the sentencing court.

13 provided by the sexual offender treatment program, a
14 prohibition on viewing, owning, or possessing any obscene,

1 s. 827.071, or s. 847.0145, and who is subject to conditional
2 release supervision, in addition to any other provision of
3 this subsection, the commission shall impose the following
4 additional conditions of conditional release supervision:
5 1. As part of a treatment program, participation in a
6 minimum of one annual polygraph examination to obtain
7 information necessary for risk management and treatment and to

9 examination must be conducted by a polygrapher trained
10 specifically in the use of the polygraph for the monitoring of
11 sex offenders, where available, and at the expense of the sex
12 offender. The results of the polygraph examination shall not
13 be used as evidence in a hearing to prove that a violation of
14 supervision has occurred.
15 2. Maintenance of a driving log and a prohibition
16 against driving a motor vehicle alone without the prior
17 approval of the supervising officer.

29 (10)(8) It is the finding of the Legislature that the
30 population of offenders released from state prison into the
31 community who meet the conditional release criteria poses the
12
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
Florida House of Representatives - 1999 HB 2005
180-417-99
1 greatest threat to the public safety of the groups of
2 offenders under community supervision. Therefore, the
3 Department of Corrections is to provide intensive supervision
4 by experienced correctional probation officers to conditional
5 release offenders. Subject to specific appropriation by the
6 Legislature, caseloads may be restricted to a maximum of 75 40
7 conditional release offenders per officer to provide for
8 enhanced public safety and to effectively monitor conditions
9 of electronic monitoring or curfews, if so ordered by the
10 commission.
11 (11) If any inmate, prior to being placed on
12 conditional release supervision, is subject to control, care,
13 and treatment as a sexually violent predator pursuant to ss.
14 916.31-916.49, the inmate's placement on conditional release
15 supervision shall be suspended until the inmate is discharged
16 from such control, care, and treatment at which time the
17 inmate shall be placed on conditional release supervision and
18 under conditions established by the commission. If any inmate
19 placed on conditional release supervision is also subject to
20 control, care, and treatment as a sexually violent predator
21 pursuant to ss. 916.31-916.49, the term of conditional release
22 supervision shall be suspended until the inmate is discharged
23 from such control, care, and treatment at which time the
24 inmate shall be returned to conditional release supervision
25 status and under conditions established by the commission.
26 (12) The commission may adopt rules pursuant to ss.
27 120.536(1) and 120.54 necessary for implementing provisions of
