United States Attorney Alison J. Ramsdell announced that a Sioux Falls, South Dakota, man was acquitted of escape from custody following a federal jury trial in Rapid City, South Dakota, on November 7, 2024.
Jericho Ladeaux, 31, was indicted by a federal grand jury in July of 2024.
The charges relate to Ladeaux allegedly failing to report to a Rapid City halfway house to finish his federal sentence.
Ladeaux was found in Rapid City by local law enforcement approximately seven hours after he had been ordered to report to the halfway house.
The U.S. Marshals Service conducted the investigation, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office prosecuted the case.
