A Mission man has pleaded guilty to a charge he fondled a girl last summer when he was a tribal police officer on the Rosebud Indian Reservation.

Thirty-three-year-old Daniel Kettell was indicted on one count
of abusive sexual contact, which carries a maximum punishment of
three years in prison.

According to the indictment, the abuse happened July 5 in Todd
County and involved a juvenile female who was not capable of giving
her consent.

The Rosebud tribe says Kettell was relieved of duty.

He pleaded guilty to the charge in federal court in Pierre.
