A Rapid City man was sentenced for failing to register as a sex offender, a crime that has serious consequences.
According to court documents, Daniel Red Horse, Jr., 45, of Rapid City, South Dakota, was convicted of Failure to Register as a Sex Offender.
Red Horse was sentenced to 24 months in custody, followed by 5 years of supervised release, and a special assessment of $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.
The current conviction stemmed from Red Horse moving out of his residence in Rapid City, returning to the Cheyenne River Reservation, and failing to update his registration. Red Horse had not registered during the nearly six weeks he was on absconder status from supervised release.
Red Horse has a history of sex crimes, having been convicted in federal court in 1990 for Sexual Abuse of a Minor, and in 2012 for Sexual Contact. He was released from custody in August 2013.
This case was investigated by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services and the U.S. Marshals Service. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Miller prosecuted the case.
Red Horse was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Red Horse is required to register as a sex offender and to update his registration within three business days of relocating or changing employment.
