A shocking incident in Idaho has left authorities stunned. Pennie Sue Moffett, a 41-year-old resident of Kamiah, Idaho, was sentenced to 10 months in prison for resisting and impeding a FBI agent.
According to the plea agreement, Moffett obstructed, resisted and impeded an FBI agent who was engaged in his official duties by kicking the agent as he assisted in a tribal arrest on March 27, 2014.
The FBI agent, who was assisting in the tribal arrest, did not suffer any bodily harm during the incident. The FBI and Nez Perce Tribal Police investigated the case.
