Cherry Creek Man Sentenced to 4 Years in Federal Prison for Assaulting His Intimate Partner and Illegally Possessing a Firearm

PIERRE - United States Attorney Ron Parsons, announced today that U.S. District Eric C. Schulte has sentenced a Cherry Creek, South Dakota man convicted of Assault Resulting in Substantial Bodily Injury to an Intimate Partner and Possession of a Firearm by a Prohibited Person. The sentencing took place on August 17, 2026.

Tiger Condon, age 31, was sentenced to four years in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, and ordered to pay a $200 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund. Forfeiture of his firearm and ammunition was also ordered.

Condon was indicted by a federal grand jury in March 2025. He pleaded guilty on April 16, 2026.

The convictions stem from incidents that occurred in November 2024 in Dewey County, South Dakota, in the Cheyenne River Sioux Indian Reservation. On November 1, 2024, Condon, who had been in a long-term relationship with the victim, arrived at her residence in Eagle Butte. Condon kicked in the door of the residence and began to assault the victim by hitting her in the face multiple times, causing one of her eyes to swell shut. Condon was arrested tribally but after bonding out of jail, he arrived back at the residence with a pistol. Condon had been previously convicted of a felony drug charge in the State of South Dakota and is prohibited by federal law from possessing a firearm.

This case was investigated by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Law Enforcement Services, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Federal Bureau of Investigations. Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan N. Dilges prosecuted the case.

This matter is being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office because the Major Crimes Act, a

federal statute, mandates that certain violent crimes alleged to have occurred in Indian Country be

prosecuted in federal court as opposed to State court.

Condon was immediately remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
