A brutal act of violence shook the small community of Ethete, Wyoming, on October 25, 2021. Calvin Anderson White, a 32-year-old resident of the area, allegedly assaulted his victim by strangling and attempting to strangle them, an act that carries severe repercussions.
According to the indictment, White knowingly committed this heinous crime. Assault by strangulation is a serious offense, punishable by a maximum of 10 years of imprisonment, up to a $250,000 fine, three years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment.
On February 17, 2022, White appeared before Chief United States District Court Judge Scott W. Skavdahl for a change of plea hearing, where he pleaded guilty to assault by strangulation. This marked a significant development in the case, as it brought White one step closer to facing the consequences of his actions.
The investigation into this crime was led by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with Assistant United States Attorney Timothy W. Gist handling the prosecution. Case No. 21-cr-00123-SWS has been ongoing, with sentencing set for May 10, 2022.
As the sentencing date approaches, the community of Ethete, Wyoming, remains vigilant, awaiting justice to be served. The severity of White’s crime demands a fitting punishment, one that will serve as a deterrent to others who would commit similar acts of violence.
