An Anthem, Arizona, man convicted of Failure to Pay Child Support has been sentenced by a federal judge in South Dakota.
45 year old Jacob A. Tate must spend five years on probation, pay $78,979.14 in restitution to the South Dakota Department of Social Services, Office of Child Support Enforcement, and pay a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $100.
The conviction stemmed from the fact that Tate failed to pay child support from on or about October 1, 2012, through June 6, 2018. Tate has five children
who live in South Dakota. Tate knew that a support order had been issued against him to pay child support, but he willfully did not make payments toward
the child support.
This case was investigated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General and the South Dakota Department of
Social Services. Assistant U.S. Attorney Ann M. Hoffman prosecuted the case.
