here in kentucky, if drugs had anything to do with why you were locked up in the first place, then you will be drug tested at least once a month (random) at first. If drugs were not a factor at all, you might never get drug tested.

If his PO suspects him at all, he will be taking drug tests weekly. They can come to your (his) house, and they do, to see what he's doing, who he lives with, what his house looks like, etc. They can, and do, show up any time day or night. Remember, PO's are cops.

Now you, do not have to open the door to them. He does however. It is part of his parole agreement. You, do not have to let them in when he is not home. That would look bad on him though. They are not supposed to be allowed to look in your room, but since when do cops obey the rules?

I would not risk it myself (I smoked on probation, pissed dirty, and got 6 more months of supervised). I would tell him not to smoke until he becomes "invisible" to the PO. What I mean is: I think PO's are very busy and overworked. They deal with all the criminals. The perverts, rapists, murderers and the like. If he is "good", does what the PO says, he will become a "non-trouble maker" in the PO's mind. That makes him as invisible as he can get. My PO's pet peeve was that she wanted all the paperwork filled out before you got to her desk. It was faster for her. I always had my paperwork done, in a nice little stack. I was in and out in 5 mins. or less (except the time I peed dirty).

One dirty pee most likely would not get him sent back, but it will prolong the agony.
I do not trust people who say, "go ahead and smoke", they are not the ones having to spend their time behind bars. I don't trust piss cleaners. I don't like being the one that it didn't work for.

My advice is to suck it up and do what it takes. PO's are people. And they are not fair. If your PO is a woman, and you have girlie pictures on your wall, she may be offended. Not illegal, not fair, but enough to keep you from being invisible. Same for a black PO, and a confederate flag. Or your PO might not like the sag and bag look. Whatever it is, don't do it until you are free.

You should be applauded for doing this for your cousin.

Good luck to you both.
