An Eagle Butte man convicted of Assault by Striking, Beating or Wounding has been sentenced in federal court.
Gordon Blue Arm Sr., age 66, must spend 12 months in federal prison, with no supervised release to follow, and pay a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $25.
The conviction stemmed from an incident that occurred on February 27, 2020, in Eagle Butte. The Defendant assaulted a man by striking the man multiple times in the face and arm with a walking stick, causing fractures to his face, jaw, and lower arm.
This case was investigated by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Miller prosecuted the case.
Blue Arm was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
