For Immediate Release
U.S. Attorney's Office, District of South Dakota

United States Attorney Randolph J. Seiler announced that an Eagle Butte, South Dakota, man has been indicted by a federal grand jury for Felon in Possession of Firearm.

D’Boy Condon, age 39, was indicted on October 17, 2017.  He appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno on October 23, 2017, and pled not guilty to the Indictment.

The maximum penalty upon conviction is up to 10 years in custody and/or a $250,000 fine, 3 years of supervised release, and $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.  Restitution may also be ordered.

The Indictment alleges that on March 31, 2016, Condon, having been convicted of a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year, knowingly possessed and received a firearm, to wit: Western Field, Montgomery ward, .30-06 caliber rifle, which had been shipped and transported in interstate and foreign commerce.

The charge is merely an accusation and Condon is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty. 

The investigation is being conducted by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services.  Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan N. Dilges is prosecuting the case.   

Condon was released on bond pending trial.  A trial date has not been set.
