KAUFMAN COUNTY, Texas — A Kaufman woman was sentenced last week in a 2015 aggravated sexual assault of a child case for which she pled guilty to earlier this year.
In his sentencing, on August 8, 2017, 422nd District Court Judge B. Michael Chitty deferred the adjudication of an earlier guilty plea and placed 37-year-old Stacy Crow on 10 years probation with a number of conditions including 180 days in the Kaufman County Jail and a $10,000 fine.
Crow had previously pled guilty to the offense of aggravated sexual assault of a child, a first-degree felony, in May 2017, and faced five to 99 years in prison.
According to an indictment sheet, Crow, on July 16, 2015, intentionally or knowingly caused the penetration of a 13-year-old child’s sexual organ into her mouth and sexual organ. Crow was arrested for the offense on August 4, 2015, and later released on bond.
In addition to the $10,000 fine, Crow was ordered to pay $795 in court costs, must pay all costs associated with any therapy or counseling incurred by the victim as a result of the offense for the length of the probation, and must complete 400 hours of community service.
Crow’s conditions of probation include, among others, abstaining from alcohol, marijuana, dangerous drugs, controlled substances, or other drugs; avoid places of person of disreputable or harmful character; submit to reporting to the probation department as well as permitting home visits or breath, blood, urine, or field sobriety tests at any time; submit to a substance abuse evaluation; participate in and successfully complete a psychological and/or psychiatric evaluation and treatment; and participate in and complete a sex offender treatment program.
Conditions also prohibit any contact with the victim.
Chitty ordered Crow to register as a sex offender and further ordered 25 more sex offender-related conditions to her probation which, among other things, limit Crow’s contact with children under the age of 17, her use, possession, or access to sexually explicit material, including material depicting children, and disclosing any social media or internet accounts with the probation department.
In addition to the aggravated sexual assault of a child case, Crow was charged with and indicted on one count of tampering with a witness, a third-degree felony. That case is still pending, according to Kaufman County records.
