So the question is: is there any way you can fight back against this arbitrary change? Many people here have complained about the power of parole officers, but does it extend to making changes to the nature of the parole without reason?
Is that right?
Now, that said, there are many who have learned that parole official do as they damn well please no matter how illegal or unlawful it is, and to challenge them risks retaliation. The intimidation factor is what they use and depend upon to control parolee's.
So, he has to decide what he wants to do. He can and most certainly should speak with an attorney who is in the local area to see what the attorney has to say. If the attorney says the parole officer is nuts then he must decide if he wants to challenge the parole officer.
Experience has taught me that those in government WILL violate any law they damn well please and claim right to do so. They do this because they know they have the upper hand and the ability to simply ship the person off to jail or prison. And they WILL continue to do this as long as folks choose to live in fear of the jerks in government who violate the law.
Bottom line is -- how badly does the person you are involved with want freedom and what are they willing to do to ensure they have their freedom????? Its a decision only they can make.
