Case: In your local community, Jared Johnson (42) has been arrested and indicted on possession charges intending to distribute crack cocaine, cocaine, fentanyl, and methamphetamine. In his case study, his background indicates these charges are his second time being charged. He is going back to prison for approximately 5-10 years with parole. His first set of charges arose when his neighbor called the police because of continual drug activity at his house and the endangerment of his child (10). Since it was his first offense, he only served two years and probation. In this second set of charges, a routine probation check of his home discovered 28 grams or more of cocaine in his room. This discovery led to the finding of other drugs throughout the house. Johnson is currently being held in the local jail while sentencing and placement occur.
You are tasked with working with Jared at the jail as a professional service worker. Your supervisor is concerned about future interactions between Jared and the jail populations because he still has access to drugs, represents someone providing drugs in a drug-affected area, and has endangered his child through his actions.
