Defendant was sentenced after pleading guilty to indecent solicitation of a child. Petition for violation of probation tolled period of probation, for several years due to filing of supplemental petitions for violation of probation. Court had discretion to modify probation by extending its length to allow him time to participate in sex-offender treatment sessions. Court must make on-the-record finding as to Defendant’s criminal history at probation-revocation proceeding, with agreement of specific sentence, in order to waive pre-sentence investigation report requirement. (ROCHFORD and REYES, concurring.)
