Best Answer

Probationers are under the jurisdiction of the courts and are attempting to avoid the imposition of a suspended prison sentence by complying with the conditions of probation. Parolees are inmates allowed to serve their time in the community and are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Corrections. In some states one agency supervises both types of offenders and in others there are separate probation and parole agencies. I personally supervise a combined caseload of adult felony probationers and parolees.
