home confinement and house arrest  

Definición

  • Home confinement and house arrest trace their origins to the New Testament of the Bible, to text (estimated to have been written between 59 and 63 c.e.) that describes the arrest of the apostle Paul for his teachings; he was ordered to remain in his residence, with a military guard ensuring that he would not leave. In the 17th century, the scientist Galileo was similarly arrested during the final years of his life for his writings and views.
