COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v.TERRY L. SNAVELY


COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v.TERRY L. SNAVELY
No. 1996 MDA 2008 2009 PA Super 208 Atlantic: n/a Filed: 10/30/2009

Appeal from the Order entered October 10, 2008
In the Court of Common Pleas of Lancaster County
Criminal Division at No. CP-36-CR-0001377-2006
Before: KLEIN, FREEDBERG and CLELAND, JJ.
Opinion by: CLELAND, J.
Dissenting Opinion by: KLEIN, J.
Appellant Terry L. Snavely (Snavely) appeals the order revoking his parole on a sentence of imprisonment imposed on a corruption of minors charge to which he had entered an Alford plea. Because the parole-violation order recommitted him to prison but made him immediately eligible again for parole on condition he enroll in a sex offender treatment program which required an admission of guilt to the original corruption of minors offense, he contends invoking his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination renders impossible his ability to satisfy the condition. As such, he submits the sentence is manifestly unreasonable. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
