A former state employee from Pierre has received a suspended imposition of sentence for earlier pleading guilty to one felony count of Offering a False or Forged Instrument for Filing, Registering, or Recording after falsifying her own medical marijuana card while she was an employee of the South Dakota Department of Health.
24 year old Alexandra Feiner was sentenced Tuesday (Sept. 9, 2025) in Hughes County Circuit Court. She was sentenced to two years in prison, all suspended; placed on probation for two years, and fined $500. The maximum sentence possible was two years in prison.
The crimes occurred in March 2024. The defendant avoided both the medical provider certification requirement and the fee.
The State Department of Health cooperated with the investigation conducted by the South Dakota Division of Criminal Investigation. The case was prosecuted by the Attorney General’s Office.
