He had no arrest since 1995 (someone turned him in!). Has Deadly Illness under doctors care. We paid our taxes, own a home. We are having our second child after 15 years. Our son is A-B student in High school. We try to be good people. I know it was wrong for not reporting for that long time. But would any of this count to the judge?
I'm looking for hope that he will be home soon. I lost without him.
He had his choice of going to jail OR meeting certain requirements and staying out of jail. He choose the certain requirements - probation - and didn't meet them.
He could now go to jail to finish his sentence, particularly because he appears to have been on probation in 1993 and didn't finish and again in 1995 and didn't finish.
I don't know if it's necessary to turn him in. He undoubtedly had warrants out on him and that's why he was arrested.
I doubt that the Judge will just let him walk because he has promised to meet certain conditions twice before and has not. Often people skip meetings with the PO because they don't want to do mandatory drug testing - why did your husband skip the meetings for 13 years - ?
I don't think your pregnancy, your son's grades, your owning a home, will mean much to people who have been looking for him since 1995.
Have you known about this the whole time or was this a shock to you - ?
I have asked that this be combined with your other similar post -
