As a nation, the U.S. spends close to $140 billion annually to keep detainees in pre-trial detention. Pretrial detention used to mean languishing in jail waiting for the calendar to display the right date. In fact, the majority (60%) of those in jail are waiting for their trials to take place.

Courts and bail bonding companies use technology-based tools, such as ankle monitors and smartphones, to help detainees await trial outside the walls of a jail. Location tracking and remote monitoring electronic tethers are one way detainees charged with a crime can keep their jobs.
