A shocking crime has shaken the community of Harrold, South Dakota, as 51-year-old Brian Iron Boulder, also known as Brian Ironboulder, has been indicted by a federal grand jury for Attempted Murder of a Federal Employee, Assaulting a Federal Employee, and Assault Resulting in Serious Bodily Injury.
According to the indictment, Brian Iron Boulder allegedly attempted to kill a federal employee, an officer, and employee of the United States, while the employee was engaged in the performance of their official duties, resulting in serious bodily injury on or about March 25, 2015.
The maximum penalty upon conviction is up to 20 years in custody and/or a $250,000 fine, 3 years of supervised release, and $300 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Restitution may also be ordered.
Brian Iron Boulder appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno on April 8, 2015, and pled not guilty to the indictment. The investigation is being conducted by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Crow Creek Agency. Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan N. Dilges is prosecuting the case.
