S5:E10 Violations of Probation in Connecticut

In the last episode of the season, Connecticut criminal defense attorney Jim Ruane talks about the challenges with being on probation and being violated, and how the stakes are much higher if you are facing violation of probation (VOP) issues in Connecticut.

When a person is placed on probation in Connecticut, this usually comes with certain terms for release. These terms might include not possessing firearms, keeping a job, checking in with a Connecticut probation officer at designated times, refraining from using drugs and alcohol, etc. If a person is found in violation of their release conditions, they are in violation of their probation. If violation of probation is proven, you could be sent back to jail.
