Personalized probation saved Arizona $461 million

Arizona has saved millions of dollars by keeping people out of prison since it introduced a more rigorous adult probation program 10 years ago. With classes that help people on parole create goals and learn coping skills, violations have declined by 29 percent. NewsHour Weekend’s Christopher Booker talks to some of the people who have benefited from the overhaul.
