He was on community supervision for life for approximately 15 years after completing a sentence handed to him for a sexual crime.
He reported to parole recently and they gave him a urine test. It was dirty. They violated him and sent him to jail. He could not make bail.
The Passaic County Jail’s conditions are horrible. In order to escape the horrible living conditions and go home, he had to agree to have his original CSL converted to PSL. He now has to begin a 15 year to life sentence for a dirty urine. Sounds like job security for parole officers.
And the courts do not hear PSL violations. They are phasing CSL out in favor of PSL so the courts no longer have to hear the cases.
Now parole can just lock him up in prison for any violation. The same day 5 murderers were offered 7 years in the same court room.
