Pennsylvania General Prison Talk, News, Introductions & Chit ChatTopics & Discussions relating to Prison & the Criminal Justice System in Pennsylvania that do not fit into any other Pennsylvania sub-forum category. Please feel free to also introduce yourself to other members in the state and talk about whatever topics come to mind that may not have anything to do with prison.
I have two questions that I decided to post here because I have been unable to find information elsewhere.
1. Does anyone know if Possession of Prohibited Firearm and/or Conspiracy to Possess a Prohibited Firearm is considered a "violent crime"? There were no victims and no violence, it was a straw purchase.
2. Who determines if an inmate, upon release on parole, goes to a halfway house or their approved home plan? Parole or the judge who ruled?
