Beth Hoel

Beth Hoel began her career in criminal justice in 1998 at just eighteen years old when she began working in the Presentence Division of the Maricopa County Adult Probation Department while attending college at Arizona State University. During this time, Beth went to the Maricopa County jails where she interviewed hundreds of inmates awaiting sentencing for felony offenses ranging from drug sales, kidnapping, manslaughter, murder, and sexual crimes. After graduating from college with a B.A. in Sociology, she became an Adult Probation Officer where she supervised a caseload of sexual offenders on probation for child molestation, rape, voyeurism, and other sexual offenses. She supervised this caseload for nearly five years before promoting to management in 2009. Beth was a supervisor in the Presentence Division for fifteen months before transferring to a sex offender unit where she spent thirteen years managing a team of Intensive and Standard Officers who supervised sexual offenders. During her time in this role, she has managed thousands of complex cases, expertly navigating the complexities of each. Beth has developed several pieces of training related to sex offender topics regarding supervision and treatment in collaboration with treatment providers. She managed a grant for a dynamic risk assessment and is trained on several risk assessment tools for general offenders and sexual offenders. In 2022, Beth retired from Maricopa County after nearly twenty-five years of service to start BHG Consulting Group, where she believes in taking a holistic approach to cases to make families healthier and communities safer. Beth provides consultation to attorneys, clients, and their families regarding the justice system specific to sexual offenses and provides in-depth, quality mitigation reports to the Court on all types of criminal cases. Beth also collaborates with treatment providers as well to ensure clients have access to the most appropriate treatment for their specific situation.
