BUTLER COUNTY - Some representatives of Butler County are eager to use cutting-edge technology in law enforcement.  "People have these GPS chips put in their pets and, in some cases, in their children, in the event they are lost or kidnapped," Butler County Commissioner Michael Fox said. "I don't see why the same can't be done with probationees."

"Come to think of it, if you dislike a pet, you can have it put to sleep," continued Fox.  "I don't see why the same can't be done with probationees."

"I would support the type of electronic monitoring that delivers an electrical shock to an offender if he or she is doing something in violation of probation," Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones said.

"People say I couldn't accurately judge what people are doing through an imaginary remote system with such a small margin for error that physical retribution could be securely delivered," Jones said.  "But look at my website, which contains a picture of me being sworn into office, and a snow advisory!  I am a very technical boy."
