Hello,
Just wanted to find out how many fellow officers have a strong working relationship with their county Probation Officers. I'm a Deputy Probation Officer in Northern California. I've been a P.O. for about 6-years now, working in several of our units (adult felons, narcotics task force, juvenile, etc.) With the exeception of our county task force, our probation department doesn't have much of a working relationship with our Sheriff's Office or local PD's (unless I'm 10-15 with a probationer at booking). I've heard of several Probation Departments that actually partner with local agencies to conduct searches, serve warrants, and share intel. Just looking for feedback. I'd like to get some ideas. It seems like a great partnership if agencies are willing. After all, we all work with the same population.
