What punishment will a person get for removing their ankle monitor?

If you are wearing an ankle monitor as a condition of parole or as house arrest and you remove it on your own, it may mean you have to go back and sit the rest of your sentence in the slammer! I think this is a state or county issue so it is going depend a bit on where you live. Unless it is legally removed by those who put it on you, you are asking for trouble. You could even get charged with destruction of property in addition to violation of the terms of your sentence.
