Man displayed guns on YouTube while on electronic monitoring for a gun case, officials say
CHICAGO — A man faces felony charges after law enforcement officers allegedly saw him displaying guns on YouTube while on electronic monitoring for illegal gun possession.
Chicago police officers arrested Derrick Crawford on April 23 after covert cops allegedly saw him pointing a ghost gun at passing cars in the 1700 block of North Long. Prosecutors asked Judge Susana Ortiz to keep him in jail as a safety risk, but Ortiz sent him home on an ankle monitor instead.
With that gun case still pending, Crawford appeared on YouTube with more guns, according to the Cook County Sheriff’s Office.
Based on the YouTube footage, investigators with the sheriff’s electronic monitoring unit conducted a “compliance check” at Crawford’s house last Wednesday. They allegedly found him in possession of a loaded M&P 15 rifle in violation of his pretrial release agreement.
Prosecutors have charged Crawford with violating pretrial release by possessing a firearm and possessing a firearm without a license.
Judge Ankur Srivastava detained Crawford until the judge handling his previous gun case has a chance to see him.
