In a concerning development, the usage of ‘sobriety tags’ has surged, with over 2,800 criminals mandated to wear alcohol monitoring devices prior to the May bank holiday. These tags play a crucial role in monitoring offenders’ alcohol consumption, providing probation officers with real-time data on whether individuals have been drinking. The substantial increase in the number of individuals wearing these tags underscores the pervasive influence of alcohol in criminal behaviour and the justice system’s proactive measures to address alcohol-related incidents.
