so here's the thing. If I sit in a car while a man robs a gas station I get charged with armed robbery as an accomplice. Why do they not charge the prob officer in this case. They obviously did not do their job. Maybe if one probie were charged the others would stand up and take note and start enforcing probation rules more intensely.

Funny you should say that. I recently read that probation officers in the USA have an average of 70-80 parolee's each. Im no cop lover, far from it, but common sense tells me you cant know where 80 people are all the time.
