Janesville, Wisconsin
Why would a thief
steal a tracking device with a built-in GPS satellite receiver? Obviously he
didn't know what he was stealing. Or, that the portable tracking device was a
part of the home detention program of the Rock County Jail for off-site prisoners.
By the time the
prisoner called to report the theft, the device had already automatically
notified the jail that it was on the run. The device and the thief was easily
tracked through the Internet. A trail of electronic dots led authorities to an
apartment building and the thief.
