Having cut it off when turning up for a weekly check-in would then be the offence.

isnt it said that prison is suposed to re-habilitate offenders. if some one comes out and requres a gps monitoring thier movements doesnt that suggest that they cant be trusted and are therefore not rehabilitated.
I know we give them to kids who nick cars to ensure they'll be home for bed intime etc or people who are locked up for motoring offences and therefore are unlikely to reoffend in the same vain.
But to release someone from prison after commiting a serious sexual offence only for them the wear a tag for the rest of thier lives. It just proves that infact prison doesnt help these people, frustatingly it encourages the idea that they are preditors. Thier sickness is waiting and acting on an oportunity to steal someones humanity, if its not something that encarseration can cure then release is not an option. Unlike some crimes DNA usually can be the concrete proof in these cases, and if DNA proves you guilty then IMO you should be banged up and never allowed to play out again.
