Three people from South Dakota have been charged with federal crimes related to marijuana trafficking. Meddore Maurice Douville, 45, Jeremy Joseph Douville, 21, and Teeana Shannon Two Eagle, 24, were indicted by a federal grand jury on December 20, 2016.
The charges include Conspiracy to Manufacture and Distribute a Controlled Substance, Possession with Intent to Manufacture and Distribute a Controlled Substance, Distribution of a Controlled Substance, and Possession of a Controlled Substance.
The maximum penalty upon conviction is 5 years in custody and/or a $250,000 fine, three years of supervised release, forfeiture of U.S. currency seized by law enforcement, and $500 to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Restitution may also be ordered.
According to the indictment, between December 5 and December 14, 2016, Meddore Douville, Jeremy Douville, and Two Eagle conspired to manufacture and distribute over 46 pounds of marijuana in the District of South Dakota.
It is further alleged that on December 5 and 6, 2016, Meddore Douville, Jeremy Douville, and Two Eagle possessed marijuana with the intent to distribute it, and on December 5, 2016, the three actually distributed marijuana.
The charges are merely an accusation, and the three defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
The investigation is being conducted by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services, and the Northern Plains Safe Trails Drug Enforcement Task Force. Assistant U.S. Attorney SaraBeth Donovan is prosecuting the case.
All three defendants are in custody pending trial, which is set for March 7, 2017.
