Rosebud男子持刀攻击两人被陪审团定罪：两项持械攻击罪名，每项最高10年监禁
美国司法部南达科他区联邦检察官办公室宣布，位于南达科他州 Todd 县 Rosebud 的31岁男子 Ervin Burning Breast, Jr.，在 Pierre 的联邦地区法院经过两天陪审团审理后，被裁定两项持械攻击（Assault with a Dangerous Weapon）罪名成立，裁决于11月4日作出。联邦检察官 Ron Parsons 公布了这一裁决。
每项罪名最高可判10年监禁和（或）25万美元罚款，另加3年监督释放，并须向联邦犯罪受害者基金缴纳100美元特别评估费。Burning Breast 于2026年3月被联邦大陪审团起诉。
定罪源于2025年12月24日发生在 Rosebud Sioux 印第安保留地的一起事件。审理证据显示，Burning Breast 在 Rosebud 一处住所外接近一群人，手持刀具、意图伤人，向其中两人挥刀。两名受害人均未受伤。
此案因联邦《重大犯罪法》由联邦检察官办公室起诉——该法规定，印第安保留地内发生的特定暴力犯罪须在联邦法院而非州法院审理。案件由 Rosebud Sioux 部落执法局调查，助理联邦检察官 Abby VanDenBerg 负责起诉。
法院已下令进行量刑前调查，量刑日期尚未确定；被告已被还押美国法警局羁押。（来源：美国司法部南达科他区联邦检察官办公室）
Rosebud Man Convicted by Jury of Two Counts of Assault With a Dangerous Weapon
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of South Dakota announced that Ervin Burning Breast, Jr., 31, of Rosebud, in Todd County, South Dakota, was convicted by a jury of two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon following a two-day jury trial in federal district court in Pierre. The verdict was returned on November 4, 2026. U.S. Attorney Ron Parsons announced the conviction.
Each charge carries a maximum penalty of ten years in custody and/or a $250,000 fine, three years of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Burning Breast was indicted by a federal grand jury in March 2026.
The convictions stem from an incident on December 24, 2025, on the Rosebud Sioux Indian Reservation. Evidence at trial established that Burning Breast approached a group of individuals outside a residence in Rosebud, armed with a knife, and swung the knife at two individuals with the intent to do bodily harm. Neither victim was injured.
The matter was prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office because the Major Crimes Act, a federal statute, mandates that certain violent crimes alleged to have occurred in Indian Country be prosecuted in federal court rather than state court. The case was investigated by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Abby VanDenBerg.
A presentence investigation was ordered and a sentencing date has not yet been set. The defendant was remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service. (Source: U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of South Dakota)
