He can be violated if he is in any area where there are things that he's not supposed to be around. It doesn't matter who actually has ownership of these things, a parolee has to stay away from illegalities of all kinds. As far as the power of attorney, that all depends on if it is a general power of attorney and where you are picking his things up from.
