Brent Biegler, a 32-year-old man from Timber Lake, South Dakota, has been charged with Assault by Striking, Beating and Wounding.
According to court documents, Biegler allegedly assaulted a woman in Timber Lake on September 15, 2012.
The charge was filed by Information on March 7, 2013, and Biegler appeared before U.S. Magistrate Mark A. Moreno on March 14, 2013. He pled not guilty to the charge.
The maximum penalty upon conviction is 6 months in custody, a $5,000 fine, or both, as well as restitution and a $10 special assessment.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Mikal Hanson is prosecuting the case, which is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Division.
Biegler was released on bond pending trial, but a trial date has not been set.
It’s worth noting that a charge is merely an accusation, and Biegler is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
The investigation into the alleged assault is ongoing, and further information will be released as it becomes available.
