My question involves criminal law for the state of: NJ
I am hoping someone can help me understand or suggest what can be done, a friend of mine had moved to another state after being gone from NJ for approx. 18 months charges were put against him for sexual offense of a minor tier 2 moderate ,, after a year of courts he plead guilty to a less offense at the advice of his attorney to avoid jail and dragging it to trail which he could not afford. he was given probation but not allowed to leave NJ he explained where he lived but they said he could not leave the state, even the judge new he lived in another state and the last thing his lawyer said to him after sentencing was go with the sheriff fill out the paperwork and go home.
Well 1 year later and he is still in NJ but he is ill very ill. to boot he is an older person and lives in limited income and barely eat after he pays bills. he was allowed to visit his family in the other state twice wasn't that nice of them.
He has ask his PO many times to transfer, he was told to get a copy of lease to prove he lived there I guess his DL wasn't enough so he did and when he handed it to PO he said I an not interested in that right now you have lots more to do before I will think about letting you transfer,,
Is there anyone he can go to for help? He said he can't go to the supervisor it would make his P O harder to deal with.
He has also accused him of failing 2 drug test and 1 alcohol so my friend goes to Dr. as soon as he is tested to be blood tested and never came up positive.. but that is for his own records he has not told the PO he does that.
And it really make no sense that they would want the offender to stay in the same state when he could be hundreds of miles away..
If anyone can suggest something he would greatly appreciate it.
