I understand that I did wrong, and deserve some sort of punishment. I believe for my first time being in trouble they went above, and beyond to make this a horibble experience. I complied with everything the entire time, but they refused to give me any leway at all...for example checking in by telephone for the last few months considering I work 7 days a week is an option that the judge refused. Also after most people have finished paying all fines and doing all classes they will release from probation...I was done with all of mine 6 months prior, and refused to let me off a day early. I don't believe they do anything to help reacclimate people that have been locked up into society again. They just make it really, really hard and stressful for them more than anything. I get taking pee tests, and giving someone a fine, but I paid out over 10 grand with all the classes, fine, lawyer, breathylizer. This is not even applicable for some people who do not have as good of a job as I. They need to help people instead of putting more on them than obviously they already cannot handle. But, that would never happen...just mtr them and throw away the key, then the citizens of our society just give up and turn into life time criminals because they are really left with no other choice.
