I concur.
Not to excuse 'Poison's' actions but many a parole officer are Barney Fife wanna be Cops who failed the grade and it's they who have 'issues'. Their goal in life is to make life miserable for those whose life they now have complete control over because they are the ones who are the failure.
If a study was done on parole officers it may find that they were the ones in school who got noogies, their lunch money taken, and had to do the Algebra homework for the 'bully'. In English - They Were Sissies. So now they're getting even with all the 'school bullies'.
Again, I'm not excusing 'Poison's' actions but his trial could prove interesting.
I’m retired NYPD I’ve worked along side parole officers on the street and haven’t had the same impression you’ve had. Those people on this tread reading what a couple of convicts have to say about a parole officer and taking it as gospel is laughable.
