Carl Crawford is out on $10,000 bail and is facing up to a decade behind bars following his arrest for choking out his ex-girlfriend at gunpoint, BOSSIP has learned.

Last week, a Texas judge set Crawford’s bail at $10,000 after he was charged with felony assault of a family member – impeding breathing. If he’s convicted, he faces up to 10 years in state prison and/or a $10,000 fine, according to Texas state statutes.

Crawford made bail June 5 with the help of a local bondsman, and under the terms of his release, he has to stay away from his alleged victim, remain in the Houston area and not use any substances – especially alcohol, according to court papers obtained by BOSSIP.

Cops said last month, an allegedly boozed-up Crawford showed up at his ex-girlfriend’s house, slamming her head against the wall and strangling her with a gun in his hand after he accused her of having an intimate relationship with another man.

The alleged victim said he choked her repeatedly and so hard that things started to go black, and he only stopped when her one-year-old daughter came up to her.

The news comes as his son’s mother, reality star Evelyn Lozada said Crawford never physically abused her during their relationship.

Crawford is due back in court next month. We’ve reached out to Crawford’s lawyer for comment. So far, we haven’t heard back.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
