Juvenile Offenders to be Tracked with GPS Devices?

GPS Tracking Device

They may be able to turn off their cell phones, but juvenile offenders could be required to wear GPS tracking devices as a means of monitoring their whereabouts in lieu of sending them to detention centers under a measure filed Tuesday in the Florida House.

Rep. Kathleen Passidomo, R-Naples, filed the measure, HB 471, which would allow the courts to order juvenile offenders to be monitored by GPS as part of home detention or community based treatment programs.
