New details have emerged about the death of a 15-year-old killed one week ago in New Orleans East.Fifteen-year-old Jvoine Elow Jr. was wearing an ankle monitor at the time of his death, but it was not being actively tracked. The news has some in the criminal justice community ringing the alarm.WDSU Reporter Shay O’Connor was live at New Orleans Police Department Headquarters with more on where the investigation is ongoing.No one has been arrested in Elow’s death, and officials said if he had been tracked in real-time, it could have prevented his death.Matthew Dennis, the president of the Association of Supervised Ankle Monitoring Providers, said, “There’s nobody watching it. No one is making sure the young man is at home.”Dennis said had there been real-time tracking on Elow’s monitor ankle monitor, officials would have been immediately notified that the teen was not at home. Dennis said, “The equipment and the process that’s being used is perfectly fine working equipment. It’s broken only in the fact that it’s not being supervised.”Sources told WDSU that the 15-year-old had two open cases at the time of his death. According to his release order, the teen was to abide by the juvenile city-wide curfew and wear an ankle monitor. He had just finished an intensive in-home supervision program without any violations and was headed down the right path according to family and officials at Martin Luther King High where the teen attended school. His grandparents and brother were devastated at his passing. Eluteria Elow-King, the grandmother of Jvoine Elow Jr., said, “This has taken a toll on me. I just can’t deal with this. This is so hard. I’m going to miss him.”School officials told WDSU that the teen had just left a city-led youth program called Pathways when he went to the apartment complex and not home where his grandparents were expecting him.The teen was allegedly involved in a fight before being shot and killed. Rafael Goyeneche with the Metropolitan Crime Commission said that had the juvenile judicial system had been up to par on monitoring, it would have stopped what is now a rippling effect. Rafael Goyeneche said, “We need to know why something wasn’t done to address that. That technology is only effective if there are people monitoring the equipment.”District Attorney Jason Williams also released a statement on the situation:Obviously, there are no guarantees. However, if a judge, hearing officer or penal institution orders placement of an electronic monitoring device on a young person, that order should include real-time monitoring to immediately identify and alert of any curfew or location violations. This real-time monitoring would cause the juvenile to be quickly picked up and detained when a violation occurs, possibly preventing loss of life. The disciplined use of electronic monitoring technology with real-time tracking can not only interrupt juvenile criminal activity, but also play a vital role in protecting juveniles as well as the public at large.Live monitoring is especially critical for an electronic monitoring program aimed at juveniles, given that juveniles are naturally more impulsive and willing to test boundaries. They need to know that someone will notice and respond promptly if they deviate from whats expected. Without that accountability, theyre essentially positioned to fail, and in some cases, this can be very dangerous.A new law takes effect January 1st. that all ankle monitors must be monitored in real-time, whether it’s an adult or juvenile.If you know anything that could lead to an arrest in Elow’s death, call Crime Stoppers at 822-1111. Elow will be laid to rest this Saturday at his school, MLK High, in the Lower 9th Ward.Donate to Elow’s family for funeral expenses by clicking the link below:Fundraiser by Eluteria Elow-King : Help Honor Jvoine’s Life and Legacy (gofundme.com)
