FULL TITLE: Sex offender who 'killed librarian and raped her daughter, 10,' 'reassembled his ankle monitor so quickly it didn't trigger an alarm'
A man charged with killing a woman and raping her 10-year-old daughter after a carjacking at a New York mall last week was able to remove his court-ordered electronic monitoring bracelet before carrying out the brutal attacks.
David Renz, 29, managed to cut the device from his ankle and put it back together so quickly that it didn't prompt BI, the company in Colorado that makes the monitors, to notify court officers in Syracuse, according to Chief U.S. Probation Officer Matt Brown.
He said that officers had told the company not to notify them when the ankle monitor's signal was interrupted for a short period of time because the officers were getting tampering alerts every time the devices were knocked against bathtubs or walls.
We finally figured out that the circuit can be interrupted because of something as simple and innocent as that, Brown told Syracuse.com.
Since Thursday, BI has admitted to Brown that this wasnt the first time someone had tampered with one of its monitors this way.
The companys contract is now being reviewed by the U.S. Office of Probation and Pretrial Services in Washington as a result of this incident.
Probation officers didnt know Renz had slipped their leash until more than two hours after state police say he attacked school librarian Lori Bresnahan and her daughter outside Great Northern Mall, tied up Bresnahan, raped the girl, stabbed Bresnahan in her car and fled on foot as the girl ran away.

I prefer scaphism. I've seen it described here on FR more than a few times.
Feed him feet first into a wood chipper.
I’d use piano wire, myself.
I wonder what it takes to get these people locked up for more than a year or two.... 5 convictions? 10 convictions? 20?
That or give him only pure dry nitrogen to breathe. He clearly doesn't deserve any oxygen.
What assclown judge released him with a ankle bracelet after being charged with child pornography...?
How could the monitoring company not know he had no activity for hours on his ankle monitor...?
I wonder what type of weapon he used to kidnap his victims... ? According to the media only guns need to be banned as weapons...
Will any outside entity be called into accountability for their failure to protect the public?
You are damn right. The Supreme Court says you can’t hang child molesters but you can murderers. Hanging is easier than that needle crap.
I hate the whole idea of ankle monitors.
