“I don’t see how buying lottery tickets (as dumb as that is) is somehow a “parole violation”.

“Under terms of his probation, he “may not gamble, purchase lottery tickets or visit an establishment where gaming is conducted, including restaurants where Keno may be played.”

Apparently it is only a violation if he wins. nobody cares if he loses...

If he can’t visit places where gaming is conducted, then I guess he can’t get gas at most gas stations or visit the majority of grocery stores as gas stations and grocery stores are the biggest sellers of lottery tickets.

This guy can only shop and get gas at Wal-mart or Sam’s till the end of his probation.

Or is my logic faulty?

Evidently, some evidence must have included him committing the robbery to support a gambling problem.

Thanks.

That kind of limits his choice of grocery stores and convenience stores, huh?
