A Rosebud man has been sentenced to two years and ten months in prison for being in possession of a firearm as a prohibited person. Isaiah Lucas Beck, 20, was convicted of Possession of a Firearm by a Prohibited Person by a federal grand jury in February of 2023.
The sentencing took place on July 31, 2023, in Pierre, South Dakota. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Beck was also ordered to pay a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund and forfeit multiple firearms involved in the matter.
Beck’s arrest stems from an incident that occurred on August 31, 2022, when he had a verbal confrontation with his father on Highway 83, south of Mission, South Dakota. During the argument, Beck’s father removed a Smith & Wesson pistol and a Del-Ton Incorporated rifle from Beck’s possession.
The firearms belonged to Beck, who was an unlawful user of a controlled substance, thus prohibited from possessing any firearms. Both firearms were identified as being shipped and transported in interstate commerce and foreign commerce.
This case is part of Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and gun violence, and to make our neighborhoods safer for everyone.
Isaiah Lucas Beck was immediately remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service after sentencing. The case was investigated by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Abby Roesler prosecuted the case.
