Must trust offenders













This year Norway hopes to begin using an electronic fetter on convicted assailants, to be able to track the whereabouts of those under restraining orders. But the scheme will only work with the help of the offender.

The test scheme of what has been billed as a "reverse alarm" system, making the offender carry a security item rather than equipping potential victims with alarms, will begin in 2007. An electronic leg band with a GPS receiver will be fastened to the person judged dangerous, and an alarm will sound if the device comes to near to the person judged at risk.
But you can ask, what is good enough. If you really want to hurt someone badly or kill them, society cannot prevent this.
