Parole and Conditional Release

I know how I feel about it. I participate in Society, I am not the whole of Society. Prisoners should have rights too. Yes, they commit crimes, some worse than others. Why do they commit crime? What lead them to that decision? Is it drug and alcohol related? There really is no excuse for crime, however, if you dig deep enough, you will discover a reason for the crime/s. There is always a reason! I agree that they have an education whilst in prison. Any assistance / support to help them make better choices on release is a positive. We need more support for prisoners when they are released. A parole officer is not support!

yes any room in the residence can be searched if the parolee has reasonable access to it. If your room is locked and your room mate does not have a key then the parole officer can not search the room.

Yes, your probation will be revoked if you do not pay probation fees, if you miss your probation hearing, or if you fail a drug test.

There is none. Absconding is an open felony. If not apprehended, you are a fugitive. Look at the case of the woman who absconded/escaped from the Michigan DOC 20+ years ago and was apprehended in California earlier this year. Look at the case of Roman Polanski. If you abscond or escape, you will be listed as a fugitive, you will be captured eventually, and you will do the time. Consider whether you want to do the time now or when you are 70 or older. Your best bet is to face it now and be done.

If your probation is revoked, it means that you will be sent to jail/prison to serve the remainder of your sentence behind bars.

They are pretty close to the same. A Parole officer monitors people who have been released from prison but still have to fulfill some requirements etc. A probation officer monitors people who have committed crimes but didn't go to prison and have to fulfill some requirements and not commit any new crimes.

Yes. A bb gun is not a firearm.

By law a "firearm" is:

Texas law - "any device designed, made, or adapted to expel a projectile through a barrel by using the energy generated by an explosion or burning substance or any device readily convertible to that use."

Federal law - " any weapon (including a starter gun) which will or is designed to or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive"

The felon needs to ask their parole officer how to do it.

Felons are not allowed to carry Tasers in any state. It is against TASER INTERNATIONAL policy.

Probation could be extended, but provided there were no issues while the offender was on probation and made efforts to pay the balance, the remaining balance would likely be referred to collections.

This ALL depends on what state you live in, and what crime you committed. In most states, you must have a clean record to possess a firearm with no felonies, so if it is a misdemeanor, it takes the time they tell you to have it expunged from your record. If it is a felony, you can NEVER own a gun legally.

All of it. There is no getting out early for any reason in the Fed.

Not a chance

I need to know what the visitation hours are four dorm 4 and if kids 11 to 18 visit inmates there and if they need to have some kind of proof of who they are?

i would like to know if a probabtion officer has a probationer falsely detained and jaile dare there consequences for the probation officer? and if not how can we report information on a probation officer legally?

A parolee can be violated by being in close proximity of the commission of the crime of simple assault. So, yes.

No. The two words have NO relationship to one another.

you cant gamble in Texas (period). Its illegal

He fills out an application and pays the fee, just like a regular person.

If a release date has, in fact, been established that information should be a "public" record. Call the inormation number for the institution and simply ask.

No you can be violated at anytime time up until the day you get the phone call or get put on court probation that you are no longer on probation.

Depends on the states on question. Also, it is not clear from your question if you mean 'minor in possesion' or something along the lines of 'possesion of controlled substance (violation)'

Typically, no. However, it will be more accurately determined by your original sentence and the statutory sentencing laws of the state in which you were convicted and sentenced.

For instance, the only way an inmate in Michigan or any of the other Truth in Sentencing states could be reviewed for parole after only nine months would be if the minimum sentence he received was nine months. the shortest term of incarceration I have ever heard of in the MDOC or any state DOC is one year, and most offenders serve eighteen months.

Expect to serve at least half the maximum sentence. There is a saying in prison: "Hope for the best, but expect the worst."

If your maximum sentence was three years, count yourself fortunate, learn your lesson, and change the direction of your life. With a sentence of only three years, you were given a second chance that many never receive.
