Jeffrey Adam Crum, Assaulting a Federal Officer, California 2025

Convicted felon Jeffrey Adam Crum, 34, has been sentenced to 12 months and one day in federal prison for assaulting a Deputy U.S. Marshal who was attempting to take him into custody following a hearing in federal court and for violating the terms of his supervised release.

The sentence was handed down by Senior U.S. District Judge Susan Illston in San Francisco. Crum, who previously resided in Burlingame and San Francisco, was indicted by a federal grand jury on December 3, 2024, and pleaded guilty on May 16, 2025, to one count of assaulting, resisting, or impeding a federal officer in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 111(a)(1).

According to court documents and the plea agreement, Crum appeared in federal court on November 22, 2024, for a hearing regarding allegations that he violated the terms of his supervised release following his conviction for being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition in federal court in Utah.

At the hearing on Crum’s supervised release violation, the district court ordered that Crum be detained pending further proceedings. However, Crum was upset by the Court’s decision and opposed, resisted, and impeded the efforts of multiple Deputy U.S. Marshals to take him into custody.

Crum resisted instructions by Deputy U.S. Marshals to enter and exit an elevator that would take him to a holding cell, forcing them to carry him. At one point, Crum kicked his legs out, striking a Deputy U.S. Marshal in the head.

United States Attorney Craig H. Missakian and Supervisory Deputy United States Marshal David Siegel announced the sentence. The defendant was immediately remanded into custody.

The case was prosecuted by Special Assistant U.S. Attorneys Eli J. Cohen and Christine Chen with the assistance of Marina Ponomarchuk and Kevin Costello. The prosecution is the result of an investigation by the U.S. Marshals Service.
