Thomas Markle is back in a Florida jail cell. Nobody has put a single dollar on his books so far.

Meghan Markle's father is being held at the Pinellas County Jail. He was arrested early Tuesday after officials say he cut off his ankle monitor while out on bond in his federal child pornography case.

A judge revoked his bond later that day. He was placed in the county jail under the watch of the U.S. Marshals Service.

No care packages

Inmates there can get snack bundles bought online by loved ones. The packages carry names like "Mega Munch" and "Elite Protein." They run from $39.99 to $129.99.

Jail records show his commissary account is empty. It appears friends and relatives have not chipped in.

A harsh call from Congress

Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee was asked about Markle on Wednesday. The Republican, who just won his fifth term, did not hold back.

He said Markle should be put on trial. If he is found guilty, Burchett said, he should be hanged.

Burchett added that Markle should get a fair trial first. Markle has not been convicted of anything.

The congressman says he has introduced tough bills aimed at people who abuse children or collect images of it. He says nobody has helped him get them passed.

The case

Markle was first arrested last week. Investigators allege they found child sex abuse material in a storage unit of his in Los Angeles. The case reportedly started after his son went to authorities in the Philippines.

Markle, 82, is waiting on a federal hearing in Tampa. He has denied such allegations in the past.
