My question involves criminal law for the state of: New Mexico
My boyfriend was arrested on Thursday night because of a probation violation by his trackers when they came to do a routine check at his house and found an empty can of beer. His friend was drinking. My boyfriend was not drinking though. I've been trying to find out what the situation is, but I wasn't successful. I thought he would see a judge today, but he didn't. Then today I was just researching online and by sheer luck I happened to find out who is probation officer was. I decided to call him to see what I could find out; turns out he didn't know he was in custody. He took my information and said he'd find out what's going on, but he'd have to get my boyfriend's permission first, understandable. Is is a good thing that his PO is now aware of the situation? can his PO help him? What will happen at this point?
