RM193: Polygraph Deep Dive

This week, we brought a guest on from a NARSOL affiliate to take questions about the polygraph. This is certainly one of the things that PFRs on supervision must regularly deal with. It’s scary, it’s a crazy machine, it’s intimidating. It was a lot of fun to do an episode like this.

RM37 – Life In Prison Without Due Process

In this weeks show, Larry and Andy take a deep dive into civil commitment. But prior to that, a few comments from people on Twitter have comments about last week’s show. There are articles covering the whole spectrum of issues. Such as: Under what conditions should an 11 year old girl get taser treatment; Why is that more people are locked up for technical violations than new crimes?; Do it make sense to help inmates re-acclimate to post prison life?; Does a prison sentence mean death because you can’t get your insulin. An action packed, exciting episode!

This week, I’d like to thank a new patron – that wishes to remain anonymous. She comes in at the Hustler level. Very exciting! Send me a message with an address, so that I can send you an exquisite Registry Matters Blue Ball.

[2:50] To Reclassify Sex Offenders, Mass. SJC Says Sex Offender Registry Board Has Burden Of Proof

[8:46] I tweeted part of conversation last week about the man in OH that can’t see his son.
https://twitter.com/RegistryMatters/status/1027527195978354688
Do you have a fundamental right to be with your spouse & your children?
We’ve got court decisions that say you can marry whoever you want. I would think that would extend your children too. I would like to think your children are basic right.
I have a quick question about the fundamental right to your family. Someone commented on Twitter that the AWA removes that fundamental right. I’ve asked for the specific language, – still waiting. I was hoping you could expand on it.

[15:50] This was written by Joshua Vaughn – from The Appeal.org. Failure-to-comply Arrests Reveal Flaws In Sex Offender Registries

Failure-to-Comply Arrests Reveal Flaws in Sex Offender Registries


Basically, the psychologists say that the registry creates a false sense of security. And to drive the sense of security home, since they aren’t rearresting people for new crimes.

[21:00] This article comes from Governing.com. And we’ll just cover it briefly that there is a trial going on in North Dakota. They are taking a much softer hand in criminal justice and helping people get back on their feet. Teaching them soft skills like shopping smarter. They actually take them for supervised grocery store visits.

[44:06] From the The Tennessean.com – At Tennessee’s largest prison, diabetic inmates say they are denied insulin to ‘maximize profits’

[50:05] A question on Twitter from Marie
Do kids have a right to be with their parents? They have the right to “divorce” their parents (dont they?), which implies the right to choose. Maybe kids should sue the state for interfering in family relationships.

[58:00] Civil commitment questions:
Is there a standard of evidence to be placed into it?
Is it criminal or civil?
Does the individual have a right to representation?
Is there a standard to get out?
Do the treatment providers have an incentive to keep you in?

Conditions of Supervision

  1. History of probation
    1. Probation first developed in the United States when John Augustus, a Boston cobbler, persuaded a judge in the Boston Police Court in 1841 to give him custody of a convicted offender, a “drunkard,” for a brief period and then helped the man to appear rehabilitated by the time of sentencing
  2. From the point of view of the PO, do they imagine the ‘frightening and high’ statistics are true? Aren’t they on the ground to where they can see the numbers first hand? If they supervise 100+ people at a time, and over a year they only have to arrest a couple people for new charges, isn’t it intellectually dishonest to think that all people on probation are going to violate imminently?
  3. Difference between parole and probation
    1. In my mind, parole is you are in prison, just not IN prison
    2. Probation is you’re done with your time in, but still under heightened scrutiny because you are to some degree a known problem
  4. Conditions of Supervision – Expectation of liberty is diminished
    1. The 4th Amendment protects unwarranted search and seizure. How is it that you give up this right while under supervision?
  5. Can my PO keep me from doing this while I’m under supervision:
    1. Do what I want LOL
    2. Work where I want
    3. Hang out with whomever I wish?
    4. Travel?
    5. Is my car safe?
    6. Stay out all night?
  6. State imposed conditions
  7. Versus probation impose conditions
  8. What is the discretion of the probation officer to extend or lessen supervision requirements
  9. Special conditions for registrants
  10. Electronic monitoring
  11. Fees
  12. Intimidation – wearing swat type tactile gear, armed (gun or taser)
  13. Supervised versus unsupervised / administrative probation
  14. Probation revocation – why does this happen? Does probation trick you?
  15. Home invasion
