The system designed to monitor high-risk offenders in Australia has been breached over 600 times in five years, sparking outrage among victims' advocates. This has led to instances like a rapist being released from jail repeatedly, highlighting the need for stricter controls and more effective management of post-prison supervision. With the current rates of recidivism and breach of court orders, there is a growing concern about community safety and the effectiveness of the justice system in protecting victims. Key issues include parole violations and the management of high-risk offenders.
