Make Page Six a Preferred Source Thomas Markle Sr. allegedly cut off his location monitor days after he was arrested with possession of child pornography.
“Four days ago, a federal judge allowed Mr. Markle to remain out of custody pending trial. He was ordered to wear a location monitoring device,” United States Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Eassayli wrote on X on Tuesday.
Eassayli said the 82-year-old — who has dementia and is in a wheelchair — “allegedly cut the bracelet off at 1:45 a.m.” Monday night.
“Release conditions are court orders, not suggestions,” the district attorney noted. “We are asking the court to revoke his release and detain him pending trial, and we will continue to prosecute this case to the fullest extent of the law.”
