ORDERS: Give them teeth

| March 31, 2017 1:00 AM

Here is the absolute perfect solution to all this.

A “No Contact” order is and should be just that: NO CONTACT.

Courts have “ankle bracelets” for criminals who are let out of jail/prison for robbery, rape, murder but are ordered to house arrest!

If a man or woman has a No Contact order issued for someone who is a threat to their well-being and family, they should have an ankle bracelet that goes off when they get within the distance given to not violate.

This would probably require said victim to have a pager of sorts that goes off when the person with a No Contact order breaches the distance.

This way the victim can go out and about and can try to carry on a semi-normal life AND STILL FEEL LIKE THEY ARE PROTECTED.

Cost? Who cares!

SAVE A LIFE!

If someone would have thought about this, Pease and so many others probably would be alive. AFTER ALL … A NO CONTACT ORDER IS JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. HOW MUCH PROTECTING IS THERE IN THAT!
