Ummm ok whats a cco? And isrb?

I'm so sorry to hear that. I wonder if a lawyer can help?

A cco is community corrections officer so a parole officer with a fancy title. The isrb is the intermidiate sentencing review board its a group of 3 women who sit on a panel almost and controls every aspect of an offenders life. As far as the lawyer goes there is one who is amazing at this kind of thing unfortunetly i need to save to get her. She is super expensive bit would be worth it.

Child custody situations or just being around a minor are complex matters when RSOs are involved.

Some states have enacted statutes regarding these situations, but if a RSO is also a probationer, he must follow the rules the PO has set out until and if he can petition the court to have those restrictions modified.

You said, “His cco threw him in prison stating she knew nothing about me being pregnant or the fact that we where dating which also has to be approved by cco.”

The PO convinced the judge to revoke his probation over this one incident? Had there been any previous incidents at all with this PO? It is rare that a PO will ask that a probationer have his probation revoked and sent back to prison for a one-time, first-time violation.

Usually on a first time violation, the PO will just place more restrictions on the offender----perhaps a curfew, more counseling, etc., or they can have him thrown in jail for 60 days or so. But they don’t usually send them back to prison on the first violation.

It appears as if there has been an abuse of power by the PO, which is not uncommon.

You said, “. I had proof we had his provious cco and her approval of relationship and proof she knew i was pregnant and was ok with.”

Were you able to present that proof at the revocation hearing?? If so, your proof did not sway the judge at all??

You asked, “So he will be out 4 days before our daughter turns three. If anyone know much about washington state does anyone know how to transfer him to a diffrent cco?”

I only know of two ways a probationer can have a different PO assigned----1) write the supervisor and request a different probationer, which may not be successful, or 2) move to a different part of the state and away from the problem PO. But it is always best to negotiate with the PO rather than dragging him or her into court on a request for a change in the probation conditions.

An attorney can probably negotiate a way in which he can see his child. They may place some restrictions at first, but come on, this is his own biological child. He has a much better chance since the child is his own child than if the child was a step-child.

As a last resort, an attorney can petition the court to have the rules of his probation changed so he can live with his child and be the father all children need. Judges are not too keen on breaking up families.

But you definitely need an attorney with experience in family law.

Colorado use to revoke probation/parole for just about anything, but the prisons are so over crowded that they can't do that anymore but having a sexual relationship without approval will get you revoked here, SOTP here is very strict

Also I'm interested in moving to Washington, my husband isn't in parole anymore, he just has to register what's it like there for SOs that are no longer bound by supervision?

So as far as previous issues with the cco there was none. He did everything she asked. Joined parenting classes, did more counseling, family counseling, a few other classes.
As far as the revocation hearing i was not allowed there. The isrb does not allow anyone onto a revocation hearing. There is no judge its just 3 women. He is not even allowed a lawyer in it.

Rollerblade_girl its the same in washington but we had permission to have a sexual relationship. So idk the chick is a not so nice words. As far your husband he should be ok the isrb is what makes the parole life long and he would have had to get it at conviction. So i think you guys sbould be fine

Did he present the info himself at the revocation hearing? I used to write down and date all conversations I had with my PO. I never wanted there to be any confusion with what they said I could do/couldn’t do. I damn sure wouldn’t take the fall in a revocation hearing for something my PO said I could do.

He tried to but sonce they put him in jail until the hearing there was no way he could have the papers on hand. He didnt even know what day the hearing was just that it was in a 2 week time frame. He said that at the hearing he told them he had all the proof in paper and recording they just had to get his stuff. The board said if he had the proof it would be in his fole and it was not so they said he was lying.

If his PO approved it then it should’ve been in his file. Was there anyone else who officially signed off on your relationship like his therapist?

What evidence do you have that his PO approved the relationship? If the evidence is solid enough you might want to see if you can petition the court, a habeas corpus petition.
