After her third DUI arrest, Natasha McClain was ordered by the court to have continuous alcohol monitoring.

Charged with first degree murder, Eugene Jackson was ordered to be constantly followed through his ankle monitoring.

But notices of removal filed Monday by the company Tennessee Recovery and Monitoring indicated the two - and 32 others offenders - would have their monitoring stopped in 10 days.

Here is the back story to this

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) -- Ankle monitors were switched off for 20 criminal offenders, including a murder suspect, on Friday.


Andy Baggenstoss with Tennessee Recovery and Monitoring told FOX 17 News he decided to turn off the monitors at 10 a.m. due to an outstanding billing issue. He said the monitors were back on at around 5:40 p.m.

According to Baggenstoss, offenders in Davidson County must pay for their own ankle monitors since the county opted out of the Indigency Fund that was created to keep the monitors running. With Tennessee Recovery and Monitoring, offenders must pay $3.33 each day to keep their ankle monitors on. By the time Friday rolled around, Baggenstoss says 20 offenders each owed more than $600 - so he switched them off.

Yep. That is exactly how this works.
