Dupree Man Charged with Assault with a Dangerous Weapon
Kelly Gene Clown, a 41-year-old man from Dupree, South Dakota, has been charged with Assault with a Dangerous Weapon.
Clown was indicted by a federal grand jury on March 15, 2016, and appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno on April 15, 2016, where he pled not guilty to the Indictment.
The maximum penalty upon conviction is up to 10 years in custody and/or a $250,000 fine, 3 years of supervised release, and $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Restitution may also be ordered.
The Indictment alleges that on or about May 23, 2015, Clown unlawfully assaulted an individual with shod feet, with the intent to do bodily harm to the victim.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Albertson is prosecuting the case. The investigation is being conducted by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services.
Clown was released on bond pending trial, which has been set for June 7, 2016. The charge is merely an accusation and Clown is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
Clown’s actions have left the community shaken, and the Grimy Times will continue to follow this case closely.
