United States Attorney Alison J. Ramsdell announced that U.S. District Judge Eric C. Schulte has sentenced a St. Francis, South Dakota, man convicted of second-degree burglary. The sentencing took place on September 9, 2024.
Antonio Molina, 35, received a sentence of one year and five months in federal prison, followed by two years of supervised release. He was also ordered to pay a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.
Molina was indicted for second-degree burglary by a federal grand jury in August 2023 and pleaded guilty on June 10, 2024.
The conviction stemmed from an incident in St. Francis, within the Rosebud Sioux Indian Reservation, where Molina broke into an individual’s home and attempted to steal various items, including a firearm. Law enforcement apprehended Molina as he was leaving the scene of the burglary.
The case was investigated by the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan Dilges prosecuted the case.
Molina was immediately remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
