    The article title implies that he’s already been sentenced and is on probation. That’s what that string of words means. The probation officer he met with is doing a presentence investigation. They aren’t assigned to him.

    I.e. not his probation officer because he’s not on probation because this is still pre-sentencing.

    I edited italics for clarity. Don’t be an ass.

    Edit I also edited this post for clarity. Twice!

      Well just under the headline the article states “pre-sentencing”

      So you didn’t take the time to understand the article, didn’t take the opportunity to realize your lack of understanding of the various roles and duties of a New York probation officer, and still haven’t, even though multiple inaccuracies in your statements have been pointed out to you.

      Obtuse throughout.

      Edit: engaging has been my mistake. I thought your original comment was in regards to the headline. This makes clear you are speaking to the article. Had I understood that, I would have not replied, as there would be little point.
