Fisher Jailed For Violating House Arrest Rules

Former Insurance Commissioner Carroll Fisher is in jail for violating the conditions of his house arrest as he appeals his embezzlement and perjury convictions.
Oklahoma County District Judge Kenneth Watson ordered Fisher to jail for leaving his Tulsa home without an ankle bracelet used to monitor his location, and for leaving the monitor in his car while he worked at a furniture consignment business.
The judge said Fisher will not be allowed to work when he returns to house arrest, probably next week.
Fisher apologized to the judge in court Wednesday before he was handcuffed and taken to jail.
