Can a parolee live with someone that has previously pressed charges against them?

Question

My friend wants to let her son's father move in with them when he is release from jail in a few months. She pressed charges against him back in 2001 or 2002; will he still be able to live with her? They may get married before he gets out but may not so they need to be sure it should be approved for him to live with her and their child. Sincere answers are greatly appreciated, thanks for your help.

BTW, her charges against him are not the charges he is currently serving for. Not sure if that info is needed or not.

Answer 1

sure because its realy up the mother and father if they live together reguardless of what the parole officers or courts or anyone else has to say,

Answer 2

Please beg your friend not to marry this guy, she is just going to get beaten again.  

Parole authorities will likely not look into the couple's history in order to determine if she can be his placement.  They will only look at her criminal history, and to see if the home is appropriate.

While he is on parole she will be subject to have her home searched by the parole department if they feel he is into crime again.  If he sleeps in her bedroom then they can also search there.  If he has access to the entire house they can search the entire house.

It is good that he has changed while in the joint, but she should wait to see if the abuse is gone before she marries him again.  

Beg her, plead with her, tell her you will still be her friend, but please don't marry him until he has proved himself.  For abusers the commitment from the girlfriend will give them the confidence to start to abuse them.  If he knows it is just a changed lock to his being out on the street he might behave for a while.

Talk to your friend about going to abused women's counseling before he comes home so she will recognize the cycle, and be ready to try to prevent the recurrence.

Most abusers do not change.

Good Luck

There should be no problem, except for one piece of information you have not provided. Is he free and clear, or will he be on parole? If he's on parole, his residency will have to be cleared with (okayed by) his PO.
