Carlton Felicia, age 20, was sentenced on October 15, 2019, and Grant Whitney, age 21, previously sentenced on September 9, 2019, were both sentenced to 2 years of probation, and a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $25.

Felicia and Whitney were indicted by a federal grand jury on February 13, 2019.  Felicia pled guilty on October 15, 2019, and Whitney pled guilty on July 19, 2019.

The convictions stemmed from an incident on July 1, 2018, when Felicia and Whitney were socializing with an individual and at some point in the evening, an argument began between the three of them.  Felicia and Whitney struck and beat the victim about the head and face.

This case was investigated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Lower Brule Agency.  Assistant U.S. Attorney Troy R. Morley prosecuted the case.

Felicia and Whitney were both released following their sentencing hearings to begin serving their terms of probation.
