Be cautious with this. Your probation may have some restriction in it that prevents you from associating with known criminals, or wording to that effect. Contact your probation officer for clarification.

It will depend on the state. In Georgia, a person who is on probation is allowed to visit an inmate in jail, however, in order for a probationer to visit an inmate in prison, the inmate would need to write and request to see the Warden to ask if a person on probation would be authorized to visit the prisoner. Years ago a person on probation did not have a problem visiting an inmate in prison, but they have changed this. If there is a question as to who is able to visit, it's always best to have the inmate/prisoner request to see the Warden and ask the Warden. Unless the inmate/prisoner causes a lot of problems, then the Warden SHOULD approve it.

Hope this helps ~ I'm not sure when you asked this question.

If one of the restrictions of your probation sentence is that you cannot associate with known criminals, I'd stay FAR away from anyone in prison if I were you!

Can a person who has been charged with a federal misdemeanor and is under probation stay with someone who has firearms?

They often do. Recidivist felons frequently visit the police and most police have guns. If you want to visit a buddy who has guns most states do not consider that to be a breach of your probation. You should talk to your probation officer before you take anybody's word on the internet (even mine--and I'm always right).
