V. Conclusion
GPS tracking could be implemented into each agency. In our society, overcrowding in the prison system is an enormous issue. Prisoners are being released into our communities and may even be involved in another crime. GPS tracking is essential to prisoners being released in our community. Such prisoners for instance, child molesters and drug traffickers would be monitored and track everywhere they go. If a child molester approaches a school within a certain radius than the GPS alarm would activate at the local police station and officers could pin point where to apprehend him/her for violating their parole. Drug traffickers could have a GPS monitoring system placed on themselves and on the vehicle. This GPS system would have to be activated nationwide due to suspects moving into another county or state.
Of course there is a downfall of the GPS tracking system. Prisoners when released are issued a GPS ankle bracelet similar to a house arrest bracelet can cut the bracelet off when they are not physically being watched. When parolees’ deactivate the bracelet, officers respond and find the bracelet cut and the parolee is nowhere to be found. Of course the only way of capturing the parolee is if he/she commits another crime or is pulled over for a routine traffic stop. Now the U.S. Supreme Court for the first time limited police power to track people using GPS devices, ruling in a case that will shape the privacy rights Americans should expect from a new generation of wireless electronics.
