LAS VEGAS (AP) — Federal prosecutors in Nevada quietly dismissed a long-dormant sex abuse case last week against Nathan Chasing Horse. The dismissal of the federal case was granted Oct. 1. The former “Dances with Wolves” actor had been charged in that case with two counts of sexual exploitation of children and one count of possession of child sexual abuse material. Prosecutors moved to dismiss the case without prejudice a day after the Nevada Supreme Court dismissed another indictment. That means the charges can be refiled. Chasing Horse still faces criminal charges in Canada, on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation in Montana, and in Las Vegas.
