It's April 28th. Welcome in. This is Tampa Bay News today, where local news meets AI. Nathan Chasing Horse, the actor from Dances With Wolves, just got hit with a life sentence in Nevada for sexually assaulting indigenous women and girls. A judge handed down the ruling on Monday after he was convicted on 13 out of 21 charges. Many tied to abusing a 14-year-old. Victim. The case goes back two decades of alleged abuse, leading to his arrest in 2023, outside his North Las Vegas home, shared with five wives. Police wrapped up a months-long probe that uncovered videos of assaults, guns, 41 pounds of marijuana, and psychedelic mushrooms during the... Raheed. Victims and their families laid it all out in court, describing ongoing trauma and shattered faith since he posed as a spiritual leader to exploit them. Chasing Horse stared ahead in his jail uniform, denied everything, and called the verdict of miscarriage of justice.
Investigators also found so-called suicide pills he pushed on his wives around 2019 or 2020, telling them to use them if cops came, knocking or if he died. One ex-wife warned his group might shoot at officers to protect their setup. More charges are stacking up against him in other states in Canada, including an active warrant in Alberta, so this story is far from over his justice. It keeps unfolding across borders.
