define shock probation and discuss it

Question and answer

Shock probation is governed by federal and state laws, which vary by jurisdiction. Shock probation allows defendants an opportunity to receive probation after a short period of time in a correctional facility. [ The theory underlying shock probation is that immersing a defendant in the penal system for a short period of time could 'shock' him or her into a noncriminal lifestyle. ]
