Mission Man Sentenced for Criminal Contempt

Acting United States Attorney Dennis R. Holmes announced that a Mission, South Dakota, man charged with Criminal Contempt pled guilty to and was sentenced on January 3, 2018, by U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno.

Clint Roubideaux, age 33, was sentenced to 1 year of probation and ordered to serve 100 hours of community service.  He was also ordered to pay a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $10.

The conviction stemmed from an incident that occurred in February 2017, wherein Roubideaux, who had been subpoenaed to testify as a witness, failed to appear at the U.S. Courthouse in Pierre, South Dakota.

This case was investigated by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services.  Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Albertson prosecuted the case.
