DO YOU KNOW:
WHERE?
AND
HOW LONG YOU WILL SERVE?
Your Presentence Report (PSR)
The PRESENTENCE REPORT (PSR) is your “REFERRAL“ THAT CONTROLS ALL ASPECTS OF YOUR LIFE AND IMMEDIATE FUTURE – REDOS ARE FEW, EXPENSIVE, AND A HEAVY LIFT.
ITS ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS CANNOT BE OVERSTATED.
WILL ALL YOUR WORK BE SUBMITTED TO YOUR PROBATION OFFICER, ‘1-2 WEEKS BEFORE’ YOUR PRESENTENCE INTERVIEW?
WHAT DOES PREPARATION LOOK LIKE?
- PROVIDE ALL COPIES OF YOUR BIOGRAPHICAL BACKGROUND AND PERSONAL I.D.
- IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SPEND TIME SELF-REFLECTING,
- THEN, WRITE YOUR AUTOBIOGRAPHY OR LIFE STORY AND EXPLAIN WHAT CAUSED YOU TO BREAK THE LAW WITHOUT EXCUSES, ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY AND HAVING REMORSE FOR THE VICTIMS YOU HAVE HARMED.
- WHY – DID YOU LIKE YOUR FEDERAL INDICTMENT? THAT IS THE DOJ NARRATIVE (OR STORY) OF YOU. TO COUNTER IT, TELL YOUR OWN STORY OR NARRATIVE.
- HOW DO YOU GO ABOUT WRITING IT?
Judges understand that crimes do not happen in a vacuum. They are also very interested in hearing from you, the defendant, in your own words. What happened – that caused you to break the law? Include the significant parts of your life and the low points, omitting nothing. Include The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. I hope you find this video helpful.

- Judges use the PSR to determine the length of a sentence.
- The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) uses the same PSR for prison placement.
- Probation again uses the PSR during Supervised Release.
- Lastly, this same PSR becomes a permanent part of your record and the Inmates Bible – The gift that keeps on giving.
