We sometimes do that in Oklahoma, which in all the southern states I have been in most do, because it makes the cooking time for the beans to cook faster. That is in just a pot on the stove though, I have never made beans in a crock pot, since I don't cook with a crock pot real often. You can cook them without soaking them, after rinsing them good, but, it just takes a little longer for them to get done. Katie in South west Oklahoma real close to Texas.Grin.

I always do, but I'm told that they don't do that in the south.

Do you soke the beans first?  I have seen instructions when using dried
beans to soke the beans first.
