A 25-year-old Lower Brule man has been sentenced to 27 months in federal prison for his role in a violent assault that left a victim with severe injuries.
Loren Lee Goodlow, also known as Loren Goodlow, Jr., pleaded guilty to Assault Resulting in Serious Bodily Injury on November 3, 2014, after being indicted by a federal grand jury on July 15, 2014.
The incident occurred on or about June 11, 2014, when Goodlow went to the house of his juvenile cousins and started drinking. A confrontation between Goodlow and the victim resulted in the assault, which left the victim with a traumatic brain injury, severe mixed hearing loss in his right ear, and mild sensorineural hearing loss in his left ear.
The victim was airlifted to a hospital in Sioux Falls, where he received treatment for his injuries. Goodlow was immediately taken into custody after sentencing.
According to U.S. Attorney Brendan V. Johnson, Goodlow was sentenced to 27 months in custody, 2 years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, with Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan N. Dilges handling the prosecution.
Goodlow was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange on January 20, 2015.
