United States Attorney Randolph J. Seiler announced that a Mission, South Dakota, man convicted of Possession of a Stolen Firearm was sentenced on Feb. 27, 2017, by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange.
Harold Fuller, Jr., age 38, was sentenced to 9 months in custody, followed by 18 months of supervised release, and a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $100. Fuller was also ordered to pay restitution to the owner of the firearm.
Fuller was indicted by a federal grand jury on July 19, 2016. He pled guilty on Dec. 2, 2016.
The conviction stemmed from an incident on Feb. 22, 2016. Fuller unlawfully took a duffle bag and tools from a vehicle. A firearm was in the duffle bag and Fuller later attempted to sell the firearm.
This case was investigated by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Carrie G. Sanderson prosecuted the case.
Fuller was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
