OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Authorities say two people who reproduced pirated movies and sold the DVDs on the Omaha Indian Reservation have been given five years of probation.
Federal prosecutors say 21-year-old Carroll Webster III and 22-year-old Kayla Parker, of Wanblee, South Dakota, were convicted of copyright infringement. While on probation, both Webster and Parker will have to perform 150 hours of community service and pay $500 in restitution.
Prosecutors say that from March 2012 through May 6, 2013, Webster and Parker obtained pirated copies of copyrighted motion pictures, reproduced them and sold about 600 DVDs to people on the reservation.
