Jordan Corrales is heading to state prison for over seven years after committing a string of violent crimes while wearing a GPS ankle monitor that tracked his every move.
The 24-year-old Oxnard man was sentenced on March 25, 2026, to seven years and four months in prison following convictions in two separate cases involving vehicle theft, domestic violence, and felony evasion.
In October 2024, Corrales stole a 2018 Mercedes-Benz from an Oxnard home. Surveillance footage captured the theft, showing Corrales with his GPS monitor clearly visible. Data from the device later placed him at the scene of the crime and tracked him to where the wrecked car was eventually abandoned.
The crime spree continued in December 2024 when Corrales kicked down the front door of his ex-girlfriend’s residence. Once inside, he confronted the victim and shoved her blind aunt aside when she tried to intervene.
As police closed in, Corrales led authorities on a 15-mile pursuit, reaching speeds over 100 mph while swerving into oncoming traffic and running red lights. He eventually ditched his vehicle and tried to hide behind a shed in a residential backyard, but his GPS coordinates led parole agents directly to his location.
Corrales, who was already on parole with a prior strike at the time of these offenses, now has a fresh strike on his record.
Should a high-risk offender with a history of violence have been out on the streets with only a monitor to track them?
