How do house-arrest ankle bracelets work?

93 viewsOther

Is there a GPS in them? How do they know where you are supposed to be and if you stray from that location? Is there a grace period for you to get back inside that location?

They have gps and radios in them. They work like your “find my phone” app.

They are monitored by companies paid by the courts to do so. If the signal is lost, or the bracelet is cut or they stray from their allowed location (usually city limits) they alert the probabation officer who calls them to see what’s going on.
