Shane Bruguier Gets 30-Year Sentence | Pierre News

Shane Bruguier, a 47-year-old from Eagle Butte, South Dakota, got 30 years in prison for sexually abusing a child on the Cheyenne River Sioux Reservation in 2015 — a crime that shocked the community and led to a federal conviction under the Major Crimes Act. The victim, just eight at the time, bravely came forward after telling authorities what happened during a forensic interview in 2021.
