County adds GPS‑enabled wrist device option to electronic monitoring program

Monte Herber of Community Corrections described a proposed second amendment to the county's master agreement with Alcohol Monitoring Systems to add a GPS-enabled wrist‑worn monitoring device as an additional supervision option for participants who face challenges with ankle monitors due to work attire. "This amendment would add a GPS enabled wrist worn monitoring device as an additional supervision option within our electronic monitoring program," Herber said, noting the wrist option would supplement, not replace, alcohol ankle monitoring for cases that require it.
