So each parish has their own ankle monitor contract? So if you have an offense in 2 parishes, you get two separate monitors? That’s a lot of expensive hardware especially for smaller parishes.

How is this functionality not shared statewide? One monitor for all offenses in all locations? Parishes cancel tracking for that once the warrant expires. After all warrants expire the monitor gets removed.

There has to be a way to do this better. Not even talking about the jail problem which is a huge issue in of itself (they clearly need a new prison in WBR).

The public sector is so horribly inefficient. There are basic off the shelf commercially available programs and hardware that can very easily and very cheaply do this if law enforcement in La could handle a minor “business” process change.

Yeah, but it could at least start with the ankle monitor(s) being tracked or meaning something to criminals.
I've heard several stories like this from Orleans Parish criminals where nobody even bothers tracking or sharing the data with law enforcement. I guess what is the damn point of the monitors.
