Fun Fact Friday (8-21-26).....adult probation officers are charged with assisting with rehabilitation and holding persons accountable. There are times when a person on community control (FKA probation) violates one or more conditions of their supervision, and in attempt to avoid apprehension he/she may hideout in their house. This cat and mouse game often ends with the person in custody for a longer period of time compared to the time imposed if he/she would have simply presented themselves for arrest.
