In the United States, supervised release is a formal post-sentencing condition imposed by federal courts and is distinct from parole (which applies to state sentences). In Brazil, 'liberdade vigiada' is regulated under the penal code and involves court-ordered monitoring. Both systems reflect the criminal justice principle of rehabilitation while maintaining public safety through oversight and conditions.
