(Fremont County, WY) – The sentencing hearing for local man Logan Savage was held today, January 23 before the Honorable Judge Scott W. Skavdahl.
Savage was sentenced to 36 months in prison for assault resulting in serious bodily injury and, in a separate crime, 24 months in prison for “theft from an Indian organization,” as well as three years of supervised release for each charge.
These sentences will be served concurrently, and Savage was also ordered to pay $81,922.37 in restitution and a $100.00 special assessment fee.
The former Riverton-located Wind River Family and Community Health Care finance director was charged with five counts of wire fraud and embezzlement from a Tribal entity back in September of 2023, after it was discovered he had used company funds for various personal expenditures totalling over $26,000 from February to March of 2023.
Savage initially pled “not guilty” to all counts, but ultimately pled “guilty” to the embezzlement charge after entering a plea agreement wherein the five wire fraud charges were dropped.
Today’s sentencing hearing also functioned as a “joint resolution” to the felony assault with a deadly weapon with intent to do bodily harm charge filed against him.
This charge stemmed from an altercation outside of a Jackson bar in August of 2023, where he was reported to have punched the victim to the ground, and proceeded to kick them in the mouth.
Savage received a 24 month prison sentence with three years of supervised for both charges, which will be served concurrently.
Editor’s Note: A previous version of this article stated that Savage was sentenced to two, 24 month concurrent sentences; we regret the error. The updated post now also includes the restitution amount after that information was made available.
