My ex-husband just got paroled, but the institution where he was at can't tell me any more than just that. In order to get out, he had to have a living situation, and I'd like to know where he's at so I can sleep at night. I was wondering if being on parole meant he had to stay within the city where he was committed, or if that's all case by case. I hate having to constantly look over my shoulder :(

parole
In most states, he can be paroled to whatever state/city he wants. They don't make you stay where you were incarcerated (former wife of cop who worked in prison).

Go to the police station and they can look him up and tell you who is parole officer is. nm
