Penal Code 1203.2 allows Courts to violate probationers without being prosecuted for an offence. If a probation officer thinks there might be a violation of the terms of your probation he will arrest you and take you before the Court . There the Court will deciede , based on the probation officers report , if a violation has occured and sentence you to prison . The court almost always takes the probation officers recommendation . There are over 300,000 inmates in California state prisons. Almost half of these inmates are there for probation violaton . It costs tax payers over $ 28,500 each year to house one inmate compared to less than $2,880 each year to supervise a probationer. Many of these inmates should not even be in prison. Recently a young man was arrested for a crime he did not commit. Months later the charges were dismissed but he was sentenced to two years in prison anyway for a technical violation ( having contact with law enforcement ). This law leaves it open for vindictive or vengeful people to \" get even \" with probationers as was the case mentioned above. The law should be revised to state that a probationer has to be prosecuted and convicted of a violation of the terms of their probation by due process in a Court of Law and only then to be sentenced accordingly . There is alternative sentencing that could be used that would relieve state expenditures while punishing offenders .Community service is one example . This could save tax dollars on state, county and city budgets . If you agree with me please sign this petition .

The stories shared in the comments illustrate how vulnerable individuals become under the current standards for probation revocation. I am currently researching specific instances where legal due process was bypassed to highlight the urgent need for a shift in policy.

Seeing this level of support confirms that many people recognize the fundamental unfairness inherent in our current probation system. This momentum suggests a genuine hunger for reform that respects due process and demands more accountability from the courts.

I know an instance. Shortly after being released from jail my friend was found in a place he should not have been. Being a released convict the local police beat him and took him directly to the hospital for a check on him. He was then taken to jail. 45 min later he was back at the hospital by the Sheriffs Dept. saying he was found hanging in his cell. He did not die. But after months in the hospital taken to the lical State Hospital, he's has memory loss due to lack of oxygen to his brain. (HE WAS ONLY GONE FROM THE HOSPITAL FOR 45 min.) Now, he's been released from State but back County Jail. And has this 1203.2(a)(1)PC:F on him FOUR TIMES. Giving the court every right to do to him as they please.

My fiancée is constantly being harassed. He is dual diagnosed and the courts never bring it up.

Hard to get a job when the PO can throw you back in whenever they feel like it. No proof needed just a report. Need to fix this.
