Joseph Walker pleads guilty to OUI and parole revoked by panel
Summary
Joseph Walker admitted guilt to operating under the influence and several supervision violations; the parole panel revoked his parole Sept. 18, 2025.
Joseph Walker pleaded guilty at a Sept. 18, 2025 parole hearing to allegations that he violated special conditions including a curfew and that he operated a vehicle while intoxicated. The panel heard that Walker was arrested July 5, 2025, by the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office on OUI and related traffic offenses.
Walker acknowledged unpaid supervision fees and missed community service requirements; he said work schedules made compliance difficult. The panel noted Walker pleaded guilty at the preliminary and again at the revocation hearing. Panel member Chuck Tillis read multiple violations and the chair determined that the pleadings supported a violation finding.
Nut graf: Because Walker admitted guilt to the listed violations—including curfew breach, OUI arrest and missed fees—the panel applied the preponderance standard and voted to revoke parole.
Ending: The panel voted unanimously to revoke Walker's parole and he will return to DOC custody pending administrative processing.
