US offenders unmonitored as tagging system fails

[bijou]

Thousands of US sex offenders, prisoners on parole and other convicts were left unmonitored after an electronic tagging system shut down because of data overload.

BI Incorporated, which runs the system, reached its data threshold - more than two billion records - on Tuesday.

This left authorities across 49 states unaware of offenders' movement for about 12 hours.

BI increased its data storage capacity to avoid a repeat of the problem.

Prisons and other corrections agencies were blocked from getting notifications on about 16,000 people, BI Incorporated spokesman Jock Waldo said on Wednesday.   ...

Bijou, we do what we can when we allow monsters to prowl the streets of any country.

Watching the European news it seems there are more monsters with in family's then strangers.

Question for you Bijou, has it all ways been this way with humans and the reason for the subjugation of woman for their own safety that has led the Muslim faith to make their woman disappear in society.?

One can raise a child in safety and educate them but when they leave their home as they must do, marry and have a family, who is there to protect them or their children from the monsters with in and without.

Here in the USA parents teach their children not to talk to strangers, they seldom say why, just don't do it.

To this day my Mom at 88 years years of age gets wiered out when we are together and I speak to people I do not know.    She knows full well the monsters that leark about, has read about and fears.
