I need to know why Ben Linkel is on probation! Thank you!

Have no idea who this person is.

May I suggest that you contact the Criminal Clerk at the County and ask them to pull up his sentencing sheet and they'll be glad to read the sentencing sheet to you. Or you can stop into the courthouse and read it out of his file yourself. Or you can go online to that particular county court's docket and read for yourself a brief description of his charges and for how long his probation is for and any other stipulations such as fine, restitution, etc. That is if that county is online to begin with.

This is all public information available to anyone who asks for it.
