PHOENIX, Ariz. – On March 9, Delton Rogers, 33, of Supai, Arizona,
was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Steven P. Logan to two terms of 27 months
in federal prison followed by 36 months of supervised release. Rogers will
serve the terms concurrently. In December 2019, Rogers pleaded guilty to
Assault on a Federal Officer in two different cases.
On September 27, 2018, Rogers struck a Bureau of Indian

in Supai, Arizona. On April 21, 2019, when Hualapai Police Department officers
were attempting to locate Rogers after a domestic disturbance report, he led
officers on a high speed vehicle pursuit. While being taken into custody,
Rogers aggressively attempted to break free from officers and repeatedly kicked
an officer in the legs.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs (Truxton Canyon Agency) and the
