The three were indicted by a federal grand jury in March 2018.

Using this equipment, they manufactured and passed thousands of dollars of counterfeit U.S. $100 bills in South Dakota and other states.
This case was investigated by the Rapid City, South Dakota, Police Department and the U.S. Secret Service. Assistant U.S. Attorney Eric Kelderman prosecuted the case.
Ogden, Franklin, and Autry were immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service after their respective sentencings.
