Former Chicago Police officer Jason Van Dyke likely had his first meeting with a parole officer over the weekend.

The state Department of Corrections Parole Division may have inspected his home — or wherever he is living — to ensure the neighborhood is deemed safe and there are no weapons, drugs or felons on the premises. They can return at any time of the day or night. They can demand he provide urine for a drug test. He will need permission to leave the state, sign a contract, have surgery, move to a new address or take a new job.
