House arrest for CHSLD thief
A woman who pilfered thousands of dollars from CHSLD residents has been sentenced to house arrest, which makes me wonder how much house arrest differs from what we’re all living these days.

She seems to have received a suspended sentence. That’s not house arrest. For a period of time she has conditions she must follow. Unlike a conditional sentence, which erases the conviction,, she will have a criminal record.
So like the rest of us, she’ll be paying for her own room & board.

Although I could be wrong on this one. The article doesn’t mention what conditions were set. Conditional sentence is sometimes referred to as house arrest since that may be one of the conditions.

I was assuming “prison à domicile” was house arrest but, in any case, she seems to have avoided being banged up in a cell.
