'You're messing up business': Service fails to GPS monitor violent offenders

A major security lapse in South Carolina has left 144 defendants charged with violent offenses without proper GPS monitoring following a contract dispute. Divine Providence GPS Monitoring allegedly lost access to its supplier’s system in January but continued to operate illegally and collect payments from clients. The failure has sparked outrage among local law enforcement and judges, who warned that the lack of oversight on high-risk actors poses a serious threat to public safety.
