Question: My 20 year old son was offered a plea to reduce a rape charge to cruelty to a child and then claim the first offenders act with a 5 year probation charge...my question is if he takes this deal can he still join the military with this probation?

Answer: He cannot join the military with any active probation, AND in five years when the probation is over, the military may still not wish to take him. Recognize also that he may have to register as a sex offender
