TMI 25 The Probation Officers

We were told by the attorneys that we needed to report to the probation department in Wise County. We got a letter from Tarrant County telling Dennis to report for "supervision". We called the attorney's. They told us to see the Wise County Community Supervision Department. That appointment was 2 days after the date we were to see the Tarrant County Community Supervision Department. The attorney's said to not worry about Tarrant County as they had it all worked out. BAD MISTAKE.

When reporting for probation supervision, do NOT mention any deals your attorney has made. They are not interested. These folks don't fuck around (sorry about the language but it is appropriate in this case). When your life is in someone else's hands you say yes ma'am and no ma'am, and yes sir, and no sir and do not elaborate. Having been in the Army, I understood this. Dennis, however, did not.
