FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

United States Attorney Trent Shores announced today the results of the January 2019 Federal Grand Jury.

The following individuals have been charged with violations of United States law in an indictment returned by the Grand Jury. The return of an indictment is a method of informing a defendant of alleged violations of federal law, which must be proven in a court of law beyond a reasonable doubt to overcome a defendant’s presumption of innocence.

Atnip, 31, of Sulphur, is charged with unlawfully taking a 2001 Toyota Corolla and a 1999 GMC Sonoma by force, violence, and intimidation; using a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence; and being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, including a Kimber Manufacturing, Inc., .45 ACP caliber semi-automatic pistol.
