2block,

I understand your point and (I believe your meaning); however, let me explain how this can happen.

Let's say Mr Smith is charged with Open and Gross Lewdness for masturbating in public.  In court, his attorney pleas a deal to disorderly conduct but the prosecutor wants sex offender conditions and upon completion of therapy and probation, all charges dropped.  Mr Smith accepts.  Now he is convicted for D/C and is a convicted sex offender.  This is how it sometimes happens.

I agree with your scenario. (I don't like this. I'm agreeing with you too much lately) This has happened in the past and will happen in the future. However, in the case of this string, there has been no mention of a plea deal that I remember. Based on what I've read I'll have to stand by my advise. Get a lawyer. Over time it wouldn't cost any more than possible illegal treatment costs.

2block,

I don't diagree with obtaining an attorney to find out what's what.  I did note that cat states her friend was "not convicted of a sexual offense."  This leaves the door open for many interpretations.

If, for example, sex offender conditions apply, then court action is the only way to remove it.  A parole officer (usually) only acts within their authority; not because a therapist thinks it's a good idea...

P.S.  Regarding you agreeing with me.  Could it be, dare I say, YOU are the one coming around?  Grin

Again I'll agree that most parole officers act within their authority (that authority stands only within the court order) but, the fact remains that there are rogue PO's just like there are rogue cops. These rogues should be removed along with those who practice the "code of silence". Hell, that could wipe out half of the department. Probably more.

If cat would furnish us more information the advise could be stronger or go away altogether. If cat's friend copped a plea and the sentence included SO treatment and the treatment didn't happen in prison, then a lawyer would be a waste of money.

As for me coming around - NAH. When facts are presented to me and I know they are undisputable, I will offer no argument. I'm not a total hardass. However, I have won inter-college debates when the undisputable facts were against me and my opposition was pre-law. I was taking acting classes at the time. Ronny (may he RIP) proved that actors can beat lawyers. So be careful what you throw at me.

Dang 2block,

there you go again; agreeing with me.

I invite Cat to post ALL information concerning this issue, if in fact she/he wants accurate information and feedback concerning the issue.
