United States Attorney Ron Parsons announced that a Lower
Brule, South Dakota, man convicted of Retaliation against a Federal Officer by
Threat was sentenced on January 28, 2020, by Chief Judge Roberto A. Lange, U.S.
District Court.
Jarraid Crazy Bull, a/k/a Jerraid Crazy Bull, age 34, was
sentenced to approximately 9 months of imprisonment, followed by 2 years of
supervised release, and a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund
in the amount of $100.
Crazy Bull was indicted by a federal grand jury on April 17,
2018. He pled guilty on November 6,
2019.
The conviction stemmed from an incident on July 31, 2017,
when Bureau of Indian Affairs law enforcement officers responded to a call of
Crazy Bull threatening an individual.
When law enforcement arrived to the scene in Lower Brule, Crazy Bull
fled from the officers. Law enforcement
then pursued Crazy Bull and located him hiding in a yard where he was placed
under arrest. Upon his arrest, Crazy
Bull threatened to shoot the officers involved and further threatened one of
the officers again while enroute to the correctional facility.
This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney
Troy R. Morley prosecuted the case.
Crazy Bull was released on conditions following his
sentencing hearing.
