The Louisiana Board of Pardons and Parole convened on February 4, 2025, to conduct a revocation hearing for an individual identified as Anisha Sylvester. The meeting focused on the circumstances surrounding her recent arrest and her ongoing struggles with addiction.

Sylvester recounted her situation leading up to the incident, explaining that she had returned home to prepare for a scheduled rehabilitation program. She described her father's ongoing drug issues and her attempts to encourage him to secure his drugs as she packed for rehab. Tensions escalated when a neighbor, who had previously called the police on them, reported the situation, leading to Sylvester's arrest.

During the hearing, Sylvester emphasized that she had never physically harmed her father, despite the police being called. She acknowledged her history of fighting but clarified that she does not engage in violence against older individuals. When questioned about her behavior while incarcerated, she admitted to receiving one write-up for a disturbance but maintained that she did not engage in physical altercations.

Sylvester expressed her desire to avoid revocation of her probation, citing plans to return to Lake Charles, where she has secured employment and support from a former manager. She articulated her commitment to addressing her addiction and fulfilling her probation requirements.

The hearing also highlighted discrepancies between Sylvester's account and her father's statements to the police, raising questions about the context of the incident. The board concluded the session without immediate decisions, indicating that further deliberation would take place regarding Sylvester's probation status and potential next steps.
