more on probation problem?

Question

To finish the story, he really is worried that if he tries to do the "right thing" that it will open a can of worms that may not be able to be shut again. Things are peacefull and hes doing well here. He has a good job aqnd family to support his efforts. We all know whats up and are in a fix with the whole thing. What really is "the right thing " here? Going back to a state that isnt even actively looking for him or staying silent.

Answer 1

Okay, I followed the thread and found your previous posts. It is too bad he had a bad P.O., but that does happen. The question is, did she get a warrant for him. If so, it won't go away, and will show up anytime he is stopped by police or has a background check done. These checks are becoming more routine for some types of employment, and that may be costly for him. If there is a warrant, the issue may be whether or not the state the violation occurred in cares enough to bring him back to face his charges. They will have to come get him, if they do want him, but, unless they withdraw the warrant it will be there pretty much forever. I'd sure hate to have that hanging over my head.
It's a hard question to answer

Answer 2

I would advise him to go back to the state that he commited the crime in and turn himself in. He is risking longer jail time if he is caught and will probably charged with the crime and evading arrest. The judge may go for a lesser sentence if he turns himself in and comes clean, they see it as being already on the path to being able to return to society.

Answer 3

i don't know what the first part of the story, but he needs to go back and turn himself in. the cops will find him, and it looks better if he goes himself. i don't know what hte warrant is for, but if it's not too serious, he might get probation, etc. good luck.
