Antlers resident sentenced for child sexual exploitation charges

The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma has announced the sentencing of Clyde Park Crews III, a 34-year-old resident of Antlers, Oklahoma. Crews received a 300-month prison sentence for one count of sexual exploitation of a child and using a child to produce a visual depiction.

The investigation was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of Indian Affairs. On September 4, 2024, Crews pleaded guilty to inducing a minor to engage in sexually explicit conduct between December 2022 and May 2023. The images were then transmitted over the internet.

This case is part of Project Safe Childhood, an initiative launched by the Department of Justice in May 2006. The project aims to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse by coordinating federal, state, and local resources to prosecute offenders and rescue victims. More information about this initiative can be found at www.justice.gov/psc.

Authorities urge anyone with information regarding child sexual exploitation or related offenses to contact law enforcement immediately. Reports can be filed through various channels including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-843-5678 or online at www.cybertipline.com.

The sentencing hearing was presided over by Chief U.S. District Judge Ronald A. White in Muskogee, Oklahoma. Crews will remain in custody until he is transported to a designated United States Bureau of Prisons facility where he will serve his non-paroleable sentence.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Morgan Muzljakovich represented the prosecution in this case.
