United States Attorney Brendan V. Johnson announced that a Fort Pierre, South Dakota man convicted of Distribution of a Controlled Substance was sentenced on March 25, 2013 by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange.
Dalton Mollard, age 20, was sentenced to time served, approximately 6 months; 2 years of supervised release; a $1,000 fine; and a $100 special assessment to the Victim Assistance Fund.
Mollard was indicted by a federal grand jury on Sept. 19, 2012 and pled guilty to the above charge on Jan. 10, 2013. The charge stems from an incident on April 4, 2012 wherein Mollard knowingly and intentionally distributed marijuana, a Schedule I controlled substance.
The investigation was conducted by the Northern Plains Safe Trail Drug Task Force and Assistant U.S. Attorney Kathryn N. Rich prosecuted the case.
