The article title implies that he’s already been sentenced and is on probation. That’s what that string of words means. The probation officer he met with is doing a presentence investigation. They aren’t assigned to him.
I.e. not his probation officer because he’s not on probation because this is still pre-sentencing.
It’s golden and also inaccurate.
Probation officers aren’t assigned until somebody has been sentenced. This is a pre-sentencing investigation to see if he is eligible for probation.
If he’s not, he doesn’t meet with his probation officer until after he gets out of jail.
So… Trump met with a probation officer that is assigned to his case currently. Right? So… His probation officer.
Super curious. What about this hair makes you think you needed to split it(and edit your error without acknowledging its correction)?

I edited italics for clarity. Don’t be an ass.
Edit I also edited this post for clarity. Twice!
https://www.excelsior.edu/article/what-is-the-difference-between-parole-officers-and-probation-officers/
Probation: you don’t go to jail, a probation officer is assigned during the sentencing phase
Parole: you just got let out of jail early and a parole officer is assigned to you
Similarities: you still get a government baby sitter and your rights stripped from you,
Differences: when they’re assigned and when you get them.
Actually I edited the italics for clarity.
Either way, this is an investigation with a probation officer.
He’s not on probation yet, and may not be eligible and have to do straight time.
That’s what I was trying to clarify that the headline implied. That he’d already been sentenced, when he hasn’t.
Did you read the article, though?
Yes. Doesn’t change the inaccuracies in the headline.
