‘Dances With Wolves’ Actor Sentenced To Life In Prison For Sexual Assault

Chief Deputy District Attorney William Rowles added a note aimed at the victims themselves: “For decades, victims of Nathan Chasing Horse came forward, and they were ignored. I hope this verdict gives them some peace.” Rowles’ line, “they were ignored,” is worth paying attention to. It makes you think about how long Chasing Horse had been running before anyone in charge did anything.

The claims go back years. It wasn’t until 2023 that the arrest happened. The sentence and conviction came in 2026.
