Kelly Red Tomahawk, 37, was arrested by Madison County Sheriff’s deputies on 8-3-2023, less than 12 hours after being released on bond on charges related to witness tampering and terroristic threats.

Red Tomahawk was released on 8-3-2023 at about 9:02AM after his bond was reduced by a county court judge the day before so he could attend drug and alcohol treatment. Part of his bond conditions were not to contact any of the victims in the terroristic threats case. 

But, by 10:19AM he was on the phone with the victim again in direct violation of the bond condition.

An investigator with the Sheriff’s Department was alerted to the phone call and obtained a recorded copy of it as the victim is currently housed in the Antelope County Jail. After listening to the call, the investigator was able to positively identify Red Tomahawk and the victim as being the parties involved in the call. 

The investigator then sought an arrest warrant which was later executed on Red Tomahawk at a treatment facility.
