   Re: Remove GPS Ankle Bracelet

   So I'm on the gps scram. Last week I had gotten a warrant from probation and I   
   went to turn myself in. My feild officer meet me at the jail and removed my   
   braclet until I got out to get it back on. I was surprised when I seen that   
   all she did to remove    
   it was take a flathead and pop it open. No alarm or vibration had happened.    
   So removal is easy and to put it back on obviously just latch it closed.    
      
   I noticed when I woke up to use the restroom this morning my monitor was   
   blinking red meanong battery was low. Well i went back to sleep instead of   
   charging and when I woke up no light. So it must have died while I was sleep.    
      
   My question is, while dead if I removed it and adjusted the band, would they   
   be notified? I would put it back on of course before charging. So it would be   
   no different then if the field officer took it off and put it back on but the   
   battery would be dead.   
    Then I'd charge it. So if notified would it be somehow immediate or once   
   powered back on. And if they were notifed once back on would they know the   
   bracket was removed and then reattached.   
      
   With no power I would think that it could not possibly be aware of itself   
   being removed and put back on. My field officer would just see that bracket   
   was dead and tell me to charge it. When I plug it in how could the f.o. see   
   that the bracelet was taken    
   off and put back on while battery was dead.
