Talitrix Announces First Caribbean Contract in U.S. Virgin Islands

Talitrix Announces First Caribbean Contract in U.S. Virgin Islands

What the Virgin Islands Contract Covers

Talitrix said its services will help the bureau supervise people in the community. The announcement left the contract value and start date open. It also gave no details on how many people the bureau expects to monitor or which devices it will use.

Electronic monitoring already plays a role in the territory’s courts. In 2024, the Virgin Islands Supreme Court upheld an order requiring a defendant to wear an ankle monitor while awaiting trial, according to WTJX’s coverage of the ruling.

How Talitrix Expanded Beyond Georgia

Justin Hawkins and Georgia state Rep. Todd Jones co-founded Talitrix in 2020, according to reporting by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

By June 2024, Talitrix said it was serving more than 100 government agencies across the Southeast. That month, the company announced an alliance with Securus Monitoring to let agencies use wrist and ankle monitors through the same software.

In October 2025, Talitrix announced two Louisiana state contracts and said it was working with more than 12 parishes. The company also said it became a preferred electronic monitoring vendor for Florida’s 20th Judicial Circuit. That same month, it announced a partnership with SC Monitoring Services in South Carolina.
