New device protects city domestic violence victims -- Newsday.com

I like this! I think there are a few things that are still left open and could get someone hurt but at least this is a start. This could of course also give a false sense of protection to some because the offender is only monitored in certain areas....not everywhere the victim is. A victim could go tothe store and abuser could be there since there is nothing to monitor that. HHHMMM...wondering here is there would be a way to give the victim a receiver that would also show up or would flash on the screen and emit a sound when the braclet wearer was close?? Just my wondering out loud here. I also don't think I like the way they worder one thing in this article...

The zone is spelled out in orders of protection issued when the offender
agrees to wear the bracelet as part of their sentencing....

I am not sure I like that the offender can "agree" to wear it, that implies that the offender could also refuse to wear it.... New device protects city domestic violence victims -- Newsday.com
