Electronic Anklets Track Asylum Seekers in U.S.

The Department of Homeland Security is requiring aliens in eight cities to wear electronic monitors 24 hours a day.

"The ankle bracelets are the same monitors that some rapists and other convicted criminals have to wear on parole.

So far, the Department of Homeland Security has put electronic monitors on more than 1,700 immigrants."
