OMAHA, Neb., May 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- iSECUREtrac Corp.
(OTC:ISEC) (BULLETIN BOARD: ISEC) , an industry leader in
electronic monitoring, announced it has received a contract
extension to provide GPS Tracking for high-risk offenders by the
Tennessee Board of Probation and Parole in a project funded under
an agreement with the State of Tennessee. The State of Tennessee
was one of the earliest enactors of legislation requiring the
monitoring of sex offenders using global position satellite (GPS)
technology. The Tennessee Board of Probation and Parole (BOPP) was
authorized by the Governor and General Assembly in April 2004, to
use satellite-based monitoring as a mandatory condition of release
for certain offenders. After conducting a thorough competitive
evaluation including an analysis of equipment, management software
and customer support, the BOPP selected iSECUREtrac Corporation as
its preferred partner. There are 55,904 total offenders under the
supervision of the BOPP. "We are pleased to continue our
partnership with the State of Tennessee and the Board of Probation
and Parole," said Peter Michel, President and CEO of iSECUREtrac
Corp. "And we look forward to providing the Board with any
additional assistance they may require in monitoring release
compliance by sex offenders as well as providing a less costly
alternative to incarceration for other high-risk offenders." To
electronically monitor the location and status of individuals under
community supervision, the BOPP utilizes iSECUREtrac's System 5000.
Introduced in 2007, this latest offender tracking system from
iSECUREtrac incorporates the industry's most advanced GPS
components and provides location and compliance information in
real-time via cellular telephony. In the absence of cell coverage,
the System 5000 has the ability to report through a traditional
land-line telephone when docked in its charging base. About
