Court Rejects Bail Application For Man Who Had Repeated Breaches Regarding His Ankle Monitor

By Alric Lindsay

A man has had his freedom abruptly revoked and has been remanded into custody after repeatedly flouting his bail conditions regarding his court-ordered tracking tag.

Alpacino Andrews appeared in the Summary Court today, November 4, 2026, before Acting Magistrate Roberts facing multiple counts of breaching severe court-ordered restrictions. After hearing about his flagrant disregard for the law, Acting Magistrate Roberts stripped the defendant of his bail, branding him a high-risk offender.

A 2:00 AM Wake-Up Call

The court heard from Lauren Miranda, the man’s attorney, that police officers conducted a check at Anthony’s residence at approximately 2 am on Tuesday. However, he was fast asleep in his bed. He also explained that battery for his electronic monitor died.

The court heard about a detailed a pattern of systemic evasion, proving that Anthony had logged three separate breaches of his Electronic Monitoring Services tracking tag over a brief period.

Furthermore, authorities revealed that Anthony had completely ignored and skipped his mandatory court-ordered testing windows, entirely cutting off the court’s ability to monitor his rehabilitation progress.

“Too Great A Risk To Release”

In a strict dressing down from the bench, Acting Magistrate Roberts indicated that Anthony had shown a systematic failure to respect the boundaries set by the court.

Refusing a passionate application from the defence, Acting Magistrate Roberts declared the defendant “too great a risk to release again,” citing a near-certainty that he would continue to violate court orders or commit further offences.

Remanded to Custody

Acting Magistrate Roberts ordered that Anthony be remanded into custody, but left a small window open for the defence, granting them formal leave to re-open and present a modified application for bail at his next scheduled mention on November 18, 2026.
