Re: work release violation in CA

More | Report Post

Dea. Lena,

The alleged violation of probation has been eight years old
(overdue). The violation should have reported immediately.
Howevever, In most cases the offense were relatively minor and
law enforcement and the authorities have no interest in pursuing
the individual especially after eight years. If the individual
committed a crime his/her past history will re-surfacing again.

Thanks
