What officials won't tell you about their ankle monitor program By Cathy Tatom - Investigative Producer, Joel Eisenbaum - Investigative Reporter Posted: 10:06 PM, December 18, 2018Updated: 11:08 AM, December 19, 2018 HOUSTON - Five people dead. One seriously wounded. In each case, the suspect was a state prison parolee ordered to wear a GPS ankle monitor as a condition of parole. And in each case, the parolee had an outstanding arrest warrant for violating that parole. Rodriguez is accused in a terrifying July killing rampage that started just days after investigators say he removed the monitor. By the time Rodriguez was caught, three people were dead and one person was seriously wounded. On July 13, Pamela Johnson was found slain in her home on Bent Pine Drive. On July 14, Allie Barrow was found dead in the the back of the Mattress Firm store where she worked at The Commons Shopping Center on West FM 1960. On July 16, Edward Magana was found killed in the Mattress One store where he worked at Northline Commons at 1-45 North and East Crosstimbers Street. On July 16, A METRO driver was shot and robbed near a gas station on the Eastex Freeway. He survived and is still recovering.
