Two Rapid City women convicted of a racially motivated hate crime were back in court Tuesday.

Genna Gitzke and Miranda Sheldon, both 21, were arraigned on probation violation charges in front of 7th Circuit Court Judge A.P. Fuller.

Gitzke and Sheldon pleaded guilty to malicious intimidation in July for harassing and intimidating two groups of Native Americans. At that time, Fuller placed them on five years probation and ordered them to spend the anniversary of their crime in jail. Fuller granted a suspended sentence providing the women had no probation violations. The judge’s suspension order would have sealed the record on the felony conviction.

According to court documents, the women were arrested on Jan. 23. Gitzke was charged with a Class 2 misdemeanor for providing alcohol to someone under the age of 18. Sheldon was similarly charged and cited for speeding and throwing a burning object from a vehicle. She was also cited in November for speeding and not having proof of insurance.
