What to know about the electronic monitor a French court says Marine Le Pen must wear
A Paris appeals court ruled Marine Le Pen must wear an electronic monitor as part of her sentence for embezzlement. The court reduced her prison term to three years, with one year to be served under house arrest using the monitor, and cut her ban from elected office to 45 months. The measure aims to address prison overcrowding and may impact her potential presidential campaign.
