United States of America v. Christopher Frederick
Date: 07-18-2025
Case Number: 21-CR-263
Judge: John F. Heil
Court: United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma (Tulsa County)
Plaintiff's Attorney: United States District Attorney's Office in Tulsa
Defendant's Attorney: Andrew Casey
Description:
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with repeatedly violating the terms of his supervised release.
In 2006, Frederick was convicted in Arkansas for the rape of a child. Based on that conviction, he was required to register as a sex offender when released from prison in 2020. But when Frederick moved to Oklahoma, he failed to do so, later pleading guilty to one count of failure to register as a sex offender in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2250(a). In April 2022, the district court sentenced Frederick to 21 months in prison and five years of supervised release.
Frederick began serving this term of supervised release in January 2023. Five months later, he violated its terms by assaulting another resident at his halfway house. After Frederick admitted to the violation, the district court sentenced him to 11 months in prison and 24 months of supervised release. The court also imposed a special condition prohibiting Frederick from having contact with minors unless approved by his probation officer; if unauthorized contact occurred, the special condition required Frederick to immediately report it. Less than a week into his second term of supervised release, Frederick violated this condition. He invited two children to his hotel room to eat pizza and then lied to
his probation officer about the unauthorized contact.
