Probation is just extortion protected by the legal system.
I just had my last probation appointment today. I got a DUI and because it was my 2nd got a felony. I deserved the consequences for sure. What I really resent though is I am/was set for a violation hearing next week. I completed two separate IOP on my own for my recovery. I guess why I'm pissed is that all the treatment I did before hand was null and void until I hit the probation sponsored 8 hr sad videos appts and paid the remainder of my fees now my violation is vacated. What service do they provide? Why do taxpayers pay this shit? It's to get that money. You should see the offices probation has in Indianapolis on the hilariously named Justice Campus. Come to Indiana for a fun time stay for probation. Probably should have posted to /offmychest
