Federal Judge Revokes Supervised Release for Kaufman County Man Following Multiple Violations
Defendant sentenced to 27 months in federal prison for drug and alcohol use
FORNEY, TX – A Kaufman County man who was previously convicted on major federal drug charges has had his supervised release revoked following a series of documented violations, according to court documents filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
Jason Michael Hood, 41, was ordered to serve 27 months in federal prison after admitting to repeated substance abuse violations that breached the terms of his release. The ruling, handed down by U.S. District Judge Amos L. Mazzant, III, on March 9, 2026, marks the latest development in a long-standing federal case dating back to 2013.
History of the Case
Hood was originally sentenced in 2015 by U.S. District Judge Marcia A. Crone to 162 months in federal prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy to distribute 500 grams or more of methamphetamine—a Class A felony. Following his release from prison in June 2024, Hood began a five-year term of supervised release.
Over the past year, court records indicate that Hood’s conditions of supervision were tightened to include mandatory mental health aftercare and alcohol abstinence. However, a petition filed by the U.S. Probation Office in December 2025 alleged that Hood had failed to comply with these federal mandates.
Violations and Court Proceedings
The petition for revocation originally cited four separate violations, including allegations of terroristic threats and assault in Athens, Texas, as well as a public intoxication arrest in Kaufman County. During a February 3, 2026, hearing, the government moved to dismiss the criminal allegations, and Hood entered a plea of "true" to the remaining violations regarding drug and alcohol consumption.
According to court filings, Hood admitted to multiple instances of cocaine use between May and November 2025. Probation officers further alleged that Hood attempted to manipulate drug testing results by using a product known as "QCarbo" to dilute his samples. Additionally, Hood admitted to consuming alcohol on multiple occasions, including at a company holiday party in December 2025.
Sentencing and Future Oversight
Following the revocation of his release, Judge Mazzant ordered Hood to serve 27 months in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons. The court recommended that Hood be housed at the federal facility in El Reno, Oklahoma.
Once he completes his prison term, Hood will face an additional 18 months of supervised release. As part of his reintegration, the court has mandated that he reside in a residential reentry facility for 180 days, with his progress and compliance subject to review after the first 90 days.
Hood was represented in these proceedings by the Federal Public Defender’s Office. The government was represented by Assistant United States Attorney Bradley Visosky.
