GPS-enabled ankle bracelets are an effective way to keep track of parolees and others in trouble with the law.
Now Homeland Security is beginning to give the bracelets to some parents captured crossing the Mexican border illegal with their children, the Associated Press reports.
The parents were ordered to report back to immigration officials.
About 70% of parents fail to report to immigration officials, Homeland Security officials said in September.
Under the pilot program, Homeland Security will track about 250 “heads of household.”
