So its cheaper to keep someone out of jail then it does to keep them in jail courts and judges and prison guards is very very expensive and it costs the taxpayers a ton of money to house criminals.

[@bunnyslippers191]

@@DrAmazing When someone was typing up the conditions for this guy's tether they interpreted the Judge's order of "don't break any laws" as a "no police contact order." Generally speaking the only time most people have contact with police officers is when they are stopped for a moving violation, or possibly being arrested for something. I bet whoever was monitoring the tether just saw the GPS going to and staying in the Police Department headquarters, they thought the police had picked him up for breaking another law. When they called that police department, asked if the guy was there because his GPS was there, someone told the person monitoring the tether, "Yeah, he's here getting fingerprinted," and the monitoring person thought he had been arrested again and told the police department, "That's a violation of his tether, take him into custody for that right now." Monitoring person jumped to conclusions. The guy didn't go anywhere he wasn't supposed to go. When the monitoring person saw he was at the police department being fingerprinted he jumped to the conclusion the guy had broken a law again, even though he broke no laws and had been ordered to go to get finger printed. Monitoring person should have asked, "What law did he break?" or at least found out for sure why he was there. Monitoring tech should have gotten more information from the department as to why he was there and the person giving the information should have made sure exactly what law he had supposedly broken to be arrested and fingerprinted. Two links in the information chain broke and both those individuals need to be reprimanded for their jumping to conclusions and not bothering to get more information.

When the mom of the boyfriend came out and said she was going to call 911 he threatened to arrest her if she did. Then he found out his daughter was hiding in the back seat of her boyfriends car, he yanked her out and forcibly shoved her into his squad car while also releasing the boyfriend.
