Stanley Weber Guilty On All Counts

Stanley Patrick Weber has been convicted on all 11 counts of child rape and sexual contact. The former Indian Health Services pediatrician was charged with sexually abusing four boys on the Pine Ridge Reservation starting in 1995.

The Rapid City jury started deliberating at 11 a.m. MT, and the verdict came in about four hours later.

Federal Judge Jeff Viken told Weber that the next step is a presentence investigation, with a sentencing date to be set a few months from now.

Weber is currently serving prison time for his convictions in Montana, stemming from his abuse of Native boys when he was an IHS pediatrician at Browning.
