Attorneys file motion against evidence in child endangerment in Lawton By Tiffany Bechtel | December 18, 2020 at 11:06 PM CST - Updated December 18 at 11:06 PM
LAWTON, Okla. (TNN) - Attorneys have filed against evidence from the state in the child endangerment case against Kevin Crisel.
According to court documents, the state is seeking to use evidence from several witnesses who claim Crisel molested them when they were children at some point during the late 1990s to early 2000s. Documents say the witnesses lived with Crisel and his family for a period of time.
A 46-year-old man awaiting trial in January 2021 for a 2016 charge of enabling child sexual abuse is seeking to throw out evidence and testimony of alleged âprior bad acts.â
David Smith of Norman, representing Kevin Crisel, filed a motion to strike evidence and testimony from a family and for sanctions for the spoilage of evidence in Comanche County District Court on Friday.
Crisel is slated to face the January 2021 Comanche County jury trial docket for a felony charge of child endangerment. The charge stems from a case involving Criselâs brother.
Anthony Douglass Crisel Jr., 25, was convicted in March 2018 of lewd or indecent acts to a child under 16, records indicate. He received six years to serve with Department of Corrections, followed by one year post-conviction supervision by Department of Corrections and he is to register as a sex offender.
