Lower Brule Man Charged with Burglary
A shocking crime has shaken the quiet town of Lower Brule, South Dakota. Marlowe LaRoche, a 20-year-old man, has been charged with Third Degree Burglary, leaving residents wondering how this could have happened in their community.
According to sources, LaRoche entered the Lower Brule Indian Health Service Clinic after normal business hours with the intent to commit larceny on December 18, 2018. The Bureau of Indian Affairs, Crow Creek Agency, is conducting the investigation into this heinous crime.
The maximum penalty upon conviction is up to 5 years in federal prison and/or a $250,000 fine, 3 years of supervised release, and $100 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Restitution may also be ordered.
LaRoche appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark A. Moreno on February 22, 2019, and pled not guilty to the Indictment. Assistant U.S. Attorney Troy R. Morley is prosecuting the case. LaRoche was released on conditions pending trial. A trial date has not been set.
The charge is merely an accusation and LaRoche is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty. The community is left to wonder what drove LaRoche to commit such a crime, and what punishment he may face if convicted.
The investigation is ongoing, and the Grimy Times will continue to follow this story and bring you updates as more information becomes available.
