 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?

  1. PROVIDE ALL COPIES OF YOUR BIOGRAPHICAL BACKGROUND AND PERSONAL I.D. 
  2. 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.

This video reviews how The Presentence Report (PSR) Determines Your Future. Therefore, Preparation Is Critical At Each Stage In The Process, as a Criminal Defendant and Later as a Justice-Impacted Person. 

      • 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.
