GPS Monitoring for Violent Offenders
from Columbus News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Ohio lawmakers just passed a sweeping new bill aimed at stopping violent offenders from slipping through the cracks—after two tragic deaths exposed glaring failures in current monitoring systems. The Reagan Tokes and Patrick Heringer Act mandates real-time GPS tracking, forces parole officers to immediately alert police if someone goes missing, and gives judges more power to reinstate prison sentences for repeat offenders. Families of the victims, who’ve tirelessly advocated for change, say this legislation could have saved lives. Now it’s up to the state senate to decide if Ohio will finally close the loopholes that allowed these tragedies to happen. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
