Will the monitoring device keep the guy who was let out after 5 hours for beating and robbing a pregnant woman from doing it again?

No, but neither does bail. Hence why if someone should qualify to be released on bail they should qualify to be released without it. The idea of bail is to ensure they return to stand trial not prevent someone from committing another crime. If they are believed to be high risk then they should not be released period, bail or not.
