Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Probationers and parolees are entitled to due process rights, which includes notice of charges, the right to confront witnesses, and the right to present evidence in their favor. These rights are not necessarily the same as the full constitutional rights afforded to individuals in criminal trials, but they do provide a level of protection for probationers and parolees who may face revocation of their supervision. Therefore, option C is the correct answer. A is incorrect because probationers and parolees are still entitled to certain constitutional rights. B is incorrect because due process is a legally defined concept. D is incorrect because the term "exculpatory" refers to evidence that tends to show a defendant's innocence, and while this evidence may be relevant in a probation/parole revocation hearing, it is not the overarching right that probationers and parolees are entitled to.
