TULSA, Okla. — Tulsa criminal defense attorney Jeffrey Krigel is charged with several crimes including rape, forcible sodomy and witness intimidation.
Court records show six total charges filed Thursday:
- First-Degree Rape
- Forcible Sodomy
- Second-Degree Rape by Instrumentation
- Distribution of Obscene Material
- Two counts of Witness Intimidation
Police arrested Krigel in 2021 in connection with another rape accusation. The case is currently scheduled for its next court date on Jan. 20.
The Oklahoma Bar Association filed Wednesday in an effort to suspend Krigel's license to practice law.
Editor’s Note: In a previous broadcast of this story 2 News incorrectly stated that a Tulsa attorney confessed to the crimes he is accused of, however, that is not correct. He turned himself in after being indicted and in no way has confessed to the alleged crimes.
