How does my parole or probation officer know if I have been arrested for a new offense?

When someone is on parole or probation in North Carolina, their parole or probation officer is notified if they are arrested for a new offense. This is done when the police department where the arrest took place sends a report to the parole or probation officer about the arrest. This report will include details of the criminal offense, the date of arrest, any charges filed, and other related information. The parole or probation officer will then determine if the offense is a violation of any conditions of parole or probation. If the parole or probation officer determines that the new offense is a violation, they can then take appropriate action, such as revoking the person’s parole or probation, ordering them to attend additional counseling or treatment, or referring them to a court for prosecution. The parole or probation officer may also require the person to report to them on a regular basis or to appear in court for a hearing on the new offense. The parole or probation officer also keeps track of the person’s address and any other contact information to make sure they know where the person is at all times. This ensures that the officer is able to contact the person when needed and to enforce any conditions of parole or probation. It also allows the officer to be aware of any new arrests or criminal activity the person may become involved in.
