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

United States Attorney Ron Parsons announced that a Rosebud, South Dakota, man has been indicted by a federal grand jury for Failure to Appear and Escape from Custody.

Anthony One Star, Jr., a/k/a Tony One Star, age 30, was indicted on May 15, 2018.  He appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno on May 23, 2018, and pled not guilty to the Indictment.

The maximum penalty upon conviction for each count is up to 5 years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine, 3 years of supervised release, and $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.  Restitution may also be ordered.

One Star was previously indicted for Assaulting, Resisting and Impeding a Federal Officer.  On November 1, 2017, he pled guilty to that charge and was ordered detained in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending sentencing.  The Indictment alleges that on March 23, 2018, One Star, who had been released from custody to attend a treatment program, failed to return to custody as ordered. The Indictment further alleges that on April 2, 2018, One Star failed to appear for his scheduled sentencing hearing.

The charges are merely accusations and One Star is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty. 

The investigation is being conducted by the U.S. Marshals Service.  Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Albertson is prosecuting the case.   

One Star was remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending trial.  A trial date has not been set.
