Meet Alvin Cross, Jr.... Yup, that's him below.
Alvin was serving a 15 year probationary term for his part in an armed robbery (which must a minor part, or have some seriously extenuating circumstances or he must have cooperated like a rat trying to escape Titanic... but I digress) when he send his Probation Officer the following, presumably butt dialed text message: "You have some weed?"
Needless to say the PO contacted the cops, set up a warrant squad, went to Alvin's home, searched the Bejesus out of it and walked away with a baggie of cocaine and Alvin, in cuffs, for both a new substantive narcotics case and a probation violation.
Memo to Alvin: This is not an appropriate way for a chipmunk to act.
Memo to the Folks: Being on probation is an alternative to incarceration. It is a gift of sorts, albeit it is given by an Indian giver who can take it back at any time (the alternative being jail). It behooves you to remember that at all times while serving your probationary period. It may help to think of your time on probation as walking on a tightrope. Stray just a little to either side, lose your concentration or balance even for a moment and you fall. However, instead of landing on the ground you land in jail or prison. Tote that line, and stay clean, while you serve a probationary term. You have limited to no rights and you are subject to both drug testing and warrantless searches 24/7.
Be smarter than the average chipmunk and remember:
