Says he repeatedly touched, groped, fondled at least 4 employees and had sex in his office where employees could see him in the act. To be fair, these are accusations. But damning allegations.

As to Count 5 (having sex on his desk with a client), that might be a consenting adult defense (although the allegations that making the employees in the office watch seem to defeat and defy consent). However kissing and rubbing breasts and genitals of his staff over the past 4 years is just stupid and reckless.

Doug bought a big house in July 2020 for $899,999. The house is now Zillow valued at $1,674,800. With the PPP money and the house, he can probably post bail.

He is presently on a no bail hold until Tuesday. Rumor I heard was concerns that he might be attempting to leave jurisdiction. And lets be honest– if these allegations are true and you were 67– wouldn't you at least consider pulling an Andy DuFresne?

Doug Crawford’s defense will be:

“Was that wrong? Should I not have done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon… you know, cause I've worked in a lot of offices, and I tell you, people do that all the time.”

Serious Question: In Depp v Heard the Judge said it has to be a unanimous verdict. What if it is not i.e., a hung jury – what happens? Can there be a situation where each side bears their owns fees and they do it again?

Like the Kardashians and the inbred Royal Family, everything I know about this trial I have learned against my will. It is obnoxious the way it has become inescapable. I hope they both suffer a horrible outcome in the trial and I hope to never hear about either of them ever again.

This behavior is becoming commonplace in our legal community. It’s about time these lawyers start seeing consequences for their actions. I’ve been hearing rumblings of other prominent attorneys engaged in similar behaviors recently. Hope they, too, face the fire.

The allegations about Doug Crawford are disturbing. Mark Twain said, Every person is like the moon; there's a side we never see. Well, many of us never saw this side of Crawford. We saw a guy who was one of the better practitioners in Family Court. We also saw a guy who had lots of demons and we wished him the best in fighting those demons. I continue to wish him the best. I hope the allegations against him are overstated or untrue, but I really have no idea about any of that.

A lot of us absolutely saw this side. The man who thought he was a bon vivant but who was a creepy lech. A man who thought he was a zealous advocate but really it was and is an utter lack of any morals or scruples. He represents the worst in and of all of us.

I hope this opens the eyes of this legal community and leads to change. There are many attorneys in town engaging in this type of behavior. Maybe not to the level of Crawford, but incredibly inappropriate nonetheless. It’s time to start naming names and taking action to keep these predators from victimizing and manipulating their staff. I know a former victim of one serial offender that’s afraid to speak up because of both stigma and fear of retaliation. I’ve considered singing like a canary if it could be done anonymously, recognizing that sweeping it under the rug just allows these dirt bags to continue to cause harm to more and more women.

Anonymity is fine with me. Report it. Post it on here. I stayed away from Crawford,because he stole 400k from clients. Judges and lawyers who are friends with Crawford do not care that he is a felon,and he allegedly sexually assaults employees. I just looked at his friends list,Bonnie Bulla,Jackie Glass,and Elissa Cadish.
