Parole panel keeps Ted Crawford on supervision with treatment condition
Summary
Ted Crawford’s parole was not revoked after hearing testimony and a witness account; the panel added a condition requiring substance-abuse evaluation/treatment and weekly AA meetings before processing his release.
The Louisiana Committee on Parole voted not to revoke the parole of Ted Crawford (DOC 764273) on Feb. 10, 2026, but imposed additional supervision conditions including substance-abuse evaluation and participation in AA meetings.
Crawford faced an allegation of engaging in criminal activity tied to an 11/14/2025 arrest by the Pineville Police Department for battery on an officer and resisting arrest. Crawford said he pleaded guilty to resisting arrest but disputed that he spat on an officer, describing being grabbed, slammed and confused about a mistaken identity linked to his father’s warrants. A witness, Anthony McEvers, testified he had been beside Crawford and described police using force and later realizing they had the wrong person.
After an executive session the panel confirmed Crawford had stable housing and chose not to revoke. One panelist required Crawford to complete a substance-abuse evaluation and any recommended treatment; the panel agreed to accept weekly AA meetings as a condition of supervision. The panel instructed that Crawford be processed for release and to comply with the added conditions.
Next steps: Transcript shows Crawford will be processed for release and supervised under added conditions; it does not specify an exact compliance monitoring schedule beyond the described weekly AA attendance requirement.
