Nathan Chasing Horse Faces New Indictment on Sexual Abuse Charges

The former 'Dances with Wolves' actor is accused of decades-long abuse against Indigenous women and girls, with new charges added in Nevada.

A Nevada grand jury has issued a 21-count indictment against Nathan Chasing Horse, including charges of producing and possessing child sexual abuse materials.
The indictment follows a Nevada Supreme Court ruling that dismissed the previous charges due to prosecutorial misconduct, but allowed for refiling.
Chasing Horse, who rose to fame in the 1990 film 'Dances with Wolves,' allegedly used his status as a self-proclaimed Lakota medicine man to exploit vulnerable women and girls.
Authorities in the U.S. and Canada have corroborated longstanding allegations, leading to additional charges, including those related to human trafficking.
Chasing Horse remains in custody in Las Vegas, with his legal challenges unfolding amid increased focus on crimes against Native women.
