United States Attorney Randolph J. Seiler announced that an Eagle Butte, South Dakota, man convicted of Third Degree Burglary was sentenced on July 6, 2017, by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange.
Daniel LeBeau, age 31, was sentenced to 14 months in custody, followed by 3 years of supervised release, $3,745.00 in restitution, and a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $100.
LeBeau was indicted by a federal grand jury on November 9, 2016. He pled guilty on April 17, 2017.
The conviction stems from an incident that happened between June 2, 2016, and June 13, 2016. LeBeau, who had been drinking alcohol with a friend, entered the victim’s home after parting company with his friend. The structure was in the process of being remodeled and was unoccupied. Once inside, he saw boxes of flooring and a toolbox. LeBeau removed several items from the structure. The total value of the listed property stolen was $2,360.00. There was also $50.00 in damage to the home. Some of the stolen property was recovered by law enforcement.
This case was investigated by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jay Miller prosecuted the case.
LeBeau was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
