" if they bail do you rat them out? "I missed that one in my previous, rambling message.
Yes, I report back to parole agents on all classes, telling them who showed
up and indicating if there were any behavior problems. People often don't
show for the class, but behavior hasn't been an issue.
I find it is important to seem trustworthy and responsible to the agents.
They won't promote the program if they think I'm not serious about the job.
Reporting back keeps them from worrying about guys finding trouble during
scheduled release times.

can you talk more about how this works? are people required by their
parole officers to attend training sessions once they've signed up for
them? if they bail do you rat them out? have there been other
difficulties? did they initially approach you, or you them? i've been
interested in something like this for our shop, but i'm also torn about it.
