Pine Ridge Woman Gets 3 Years for Involuntary Manslaughter

PINE RIDGE, S.D. (AP) — A Pine Ridge woman accused of running over and killing a man with her truck while drunk has been sentenced to more than three years in prison.

Acting U.S. Attorney Randolph Seiler says 57-year-old Sarah Brown Eyes was sentenced earlier this month to 37 months in custody. Her prison term is to be followed by three years of supervised release.

Brown was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for allegedly striking and killing a man in Pine Ridge in June 2014.
