Mission Woman Sentenced for Misprison of a Felony

Acting United States Attorney Randolph J. Seiler announced that a Mission, South Dakota, woman convicted of Misprison of a Felony was sentenced on June 1, 2015, by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange.

Chelsea Larvie, age 21, was sentenced to six months in custody with credit for six months served, one year of supervised release, a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund, and $8,638.31 in restitution.

Larvie was indicted for Misprison of a Felony by a federal grand jury on December 9, 2014. She pled guilty on March 2, 2015.

On or about August 26, 2014, Larvie was aware burglary and larceny offenses had been committed at the Todd County government building by her friends, but she concealed her knowledge of the felony offenses from law enforcement authorities investigating the matter, as well as misled authorities.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tim Maher prosecuted the case.

Larvie was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
