Glenn Tisdall, Assault of Spouse and Minor, South Dakota 2014
A Lower Brule man has been sentenced to 15 months of custody for assaulting his spouse and a minor. Glenn Tisdall, age 48, was found guilty of Assault Resulting in Substantial Bodily Injury to a Spouse and Intimate Partner and Assault of a Minor Under the Age of 16.
The incident occurred on October 24, 2013, when Tisdall became upset with his spouse. He grabbed her by the hair and began slapping her in the face. The juvenile victim came out of his bedroom to assist his mother. Tisdall grabbed the juvenile’s shirt and then his jaw, and pushed him against the bathroom door frame.
Tisdall became increasingly angry, grabbing his wife by both her ears, pinning her on the couch, and head butting her in the forehead and face. He also pulled a multi-tool from his pocket and held it under her chin threatening her.
In an attempt to protect his mother, the juvenile male grabbed Tisdall around the waist and tried to pull him off of his mother. Tisdall then turned to the young male, grabbed him around the neck with both hands and dug his nails into his neck while squeezing.
Tisdall was sentenced to 15 months of custody on the Assault Resulting in Substantial Bodily Injury charge, and 12 months of custody on the Assault of a Minor charge. The sentences are to run concurrently. He was also sentenced to 2 years of supervised release and a $125 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.
The case was investigated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Lower Brule Law Enforcement Agency. Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan N. Dilges prosecuted the case. Tisdall was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
U.S. Attorney Brendan V. Johnson announced the sentencing, stating that Tisdall’s actions were ‘inexcusable and unacceptable.’ The community is safer with Tisdall off the streets, and we hope the victims can begin to heal from the trauma they endured.
