Yes. It's a definite possiblity that he could be convicted of the new crime and that he could be found in violation of his probation. Why has he been in custody for this long? He needs a skilled attorney to help him through this situation. Help him get a lawyer retained if he doesn't already have one. Feel free to contact me.
