Definitely. In addition to charges of being in possession of counterfeit money, (s)he would also have a parole violation which could send the parolee back to prison. Call an attorney immediately.

Anyone that knowingly possesses counterfeit money can be arrested. If you know it is counterfeit turn it in at the law enforcement office to stay out of trouble.

A person who is on parole can violate his parole by doing anything that is illegal. Possessing counterfeit money would qualify as an illegal act and would constitute a violation of parole.

Yes if he knew it was counterfiet or otherwise illegal. Innocent possession is not a problem.

Generally, a term and condition of parol is to commit no crime. Possession of counterfeit money would be a crime so yes, the parolee could get in trouble.

A parolee is not supposed to commit any crimes.? If parolee did not know it was counterfeit or had no reason to know then the possession was not a crime.? Parole officer evaluates the evidence.
