United States Attorney Alison J. Ramsdell announced that U.S. District Judge Charles B. Kornmann has sentenced a Little Eagle woman convicted of Distribution of a Controlled Substance Resulting in Death.
29 year old Samantha Lee Uses Arrow was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.
In January 2021, in Little Eagle, within the Standing Rock Sioux Indian Reservation, Uses Arrow injected methamphetamine into another person, who died from methamphetamine toxicity.
This case was investigated by Bureau of Indian Affairs, Office of Justice Services, Standing Rock Agency and Division of Drug Enforcement, the Northern Plains Safe Trails Drug Enforcement Task Force, and the Mobridge Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Cameron J. Cook prosecuted the case.
Uses Arrow was immediately remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
