Description
This is a consolidated appeal by Ken Kane and Curtis Bald Eagle after a jury verdict finding them guilty of riot to obstruct
justice arising from an incident at the Minnehaha County Courthouse in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, on April 30, 1974. We affirm. On April 30, 1974, at the trial of State v. Bad Heart Bull, et al., a number of spectators did not stand for Judge Bottum
when he entered the courtroom. This being the second time this had occurred in the course of the trial, Judge Bottum ordered
all spectators cleared from the courtroom. However a group of Indian spectators refused to leave. After approximately two
hours of discussion the Sioux Falls Tactical Squad entered the courtroom to remove them. At that time a struggle occurred
in which a chair was thrown out a window purportedly signaling those below to begin throwing rocks and debris at the courthouse,
which they did, breaking glass windows and doors across the entire front of the courthouse.
