That's a touching story.This may be a dumb question.Will they not able to have contact once he gets out if they aren't married?

Under normal circumstances no, anyone on parole or probation can violate their terms if found to be in the company of another ex-convict. However, near the middle of the article, it says that the judge wrote an order which will allow them to have contact regardless of their felony records.

that was real touching
