And house arrest is being used for mass incarceration of people being ACCUSED before conviction. The punishment can be more severe before conviction.

Wtf Do they get it back if found not guilty? Do you have a source?

Even if they're found innocent, it's likely already cost them their job or made it so they are so far behind on bills from not working that it becomes next to impossible to climb out from under
