Rosebud Man Charged With Failure To Register As A Sex Offender

United States Attorney Brendan V. Johnson announced that a Rosebud, South Dakota, man has been indicted by a federal grand jury for Failure to Register as a Sex Offender.

Kameron Jackson, age 22, was indicted on August 19, 2014. He appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno on January 20, 2015, 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, 5 years of supervised release, and $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.  Restitution may also be ordered.

The Indictment alleges that between June 15, 2014, and August 7, 2014, Jackson, a person required to register under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act, and a sex offender by reason of a conviction under Federal Law, failed to register and update his registration.

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

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

Jackson was remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
