Committee on Parole revokes Raymond Johnson’s parole after finding he left state and failed to pay supervision fees
The Committee on Parole revoked Raymond Johnson’s parole at a hearing on June 5, 2025, after finding violations of condition number 3 (leaving the state without permission) and condition number 10 (failure to pay supervision fees). The board found no probable cause on an allegation he possessed a firearm.

Johnson pleaded guilty to one interstate travel charge in the hearing record and pleaded not guilty to the weapon and fee matters. Michael Banffler of the Orleans Public Defender’s Office told the board he would work with Johnson weekly as a client advocate to help arrange appointments, job support and community supervision. Johnson’s attorney, Drew Lafontaine, said a second‑degree murder charge that had appeared in the record had been dismissed because prosecutors lacked evidence tying Johnson to that offense.

Johnson told the board he traveled to Texas to retrieve $3,000 and said he regretted the decision; he also said he had been employed and attempted to pay supervision fees but experienced an injury that interrupted work. The board reviewed the institutional and legal materials, heard from defense counsel and a client advocate, and then recessed briefly to deliberate.

On return from executive session the board found violations for leaving the state and nonpayment of fees and voted to revoke parole. The board recorded the revocation at about 09:46 a.m.
