Man Charged in Domestic Assault
A 38-year-old man from St. Francis, South Dakota, has been indicted for Domestic Assault by a Habitual Offender, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
Fabian McCloskey, age 38, was indicted on December 10, 2013, for allegedly assaulting his domestic partner on November 29, 2013. At the time of the assault, McCloskey had a final conviction on at least three separate prior occasions in Rosebud Sioux Tribal Court proceedings for offenses that would have been, if subject to federal jurisdiction, an assault against a domestic partner.
The maximum penalty upon conviction is up to 5 years in custody and/or a $250,000 fine, 3 years of supervised release, and $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Restitution may also be ordered.
Mccloskey is accused of assaulting his domestic partner, but the charge is merely an accusation and he is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
The investigation is being conducted by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Marie H. Ruettgers is prosecuting the case.
Mccloskey was remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending trial. A trial date has not been set.
