Matthew D. Krueger, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District
of Wisconsin, announced that on May 12, 2020, his office filed a one-count
federal criminal complaint against a man allegedly involved in domestic
violence against a woman on the Menominee Indian Reservation. The complaint
named Justin M. Moore (age: 34) of Keshena.
The complaint charged Moore with Domestic Assault by Strangulation
in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 113(a)(8). If convicted of this offense, Moore
faces a maximum of ten years in prison, up to a $250,000 fine, and up to three
years of supervised release.
According to the complaint filed in United States District
Court in Green Bay, on or about December 1, 2019, Moore strangled a woman with
whom he had a dating relationship on the Menominee Indian Reservation. The
offense allegedly occurred inside the woman’s house, and was witnessed by the
woman’s child.
The Menominee Tribal Police Department and Federal Bureau of
Investigation investigated the case, which will be prosecuted by Assistant
United States Attorney Andrew J. Maier.
A criminal complaint is only a charge and not evidence of
guilt. The defendant is presumed innocent and is entitled to a fair trial at
which the government must prove his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
