Kenneth D. Broncheau, 48, of Winchester, Idaho, was indicted
yesterday by a federal grand jury in Coeur d’Alene for first-degree
murder, U.S. Attorney Wendy J. Olson announced.
An initial appearance in
federal court has not been set.
The indictment alleges that on June 21, 2012, within the boundaries
of the Nez Perce Indian Reservation, Broncheau, an enrolled tribal
member, shot and killed Carol Haskell, his mother. Broncheau was
detained at the scene. He is currently in the custody of Nez Perce
Tribal Police.
The charge of first degree murder is punishable by life in prison and a maximum fine of $250,000.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Nez
Perce Tribal Police, Idaho State Police, and the Lewis County Sheriff’s
Office.
An indictment is a means of charging a person with criminal activity.
It is not evidence. The person is presumed innocent until proven guilty
beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
