The court accepted a plea agreement for Crystal Beloz on Monday, placing her on five years of deferred adjudication and setting restitution and probation conditions.
At the hearing the judge summarized the plea: counts 1–3 were the subject of the agreement, the court found there was sufficient evidence to support the plea and deferred finding of guilt. The transcript records a restitution figure given on the record as $17,215.37 payable to "Calton Investments Inc.," and the state noted the defendant had paid $5,000 before the plea and $2,215.37 at the hearing. The court later discussed a restitution figure of $15,000 in related remarks and the defense and probation officers clarified the spelled name of the payee as "Calton Investments." The transcript shows some numerical back-and-forth on the exact restitution math during the hearing.
The court imposed five years deferred adjudication, a $500 probated fine, 100 hours of community service restitution (which may be satisfied by completing a money-management course), regular reporting (Zoom or in person), random UAs and an option for electronic patch monitoring (noting an approximate patch cost of $300). The court explained the practical effects of the patch, field visits and reporting requirements, and emphasized communication with probation to avoid violations.
The judge admonished the defendant about the consequences of a conviction for offenses involving moral turpitude and explained that the deferred adjudication would be revoked if the defendant violates probation conditions. The transcript shows the court asked whether the defendant understood the waiver of appeal rights inherent in the plea; the defendant confirmed.
The court instructed probation staff to reflect the correct payee spelling as "Calton Investments" in the record and to coordinate payment handling and sentencing logistics. The next step is clerical: entry of the written plea and probation conditions into the court record and notifications to probation for supervision.
