You do not get an ankle monitor for misdemeanour possession as a first time offender, in Atlanta or anywhere else.

What on earth is this claim? Are you sure you’re on top of Fulton County’s 1500-person ankle monitoring program, and the push to reduce jail overcrowding? Have you really been tracking the national trend to introduce ankle monitors for pre-trial defendants who would have been simply released on recognizance?
