Brady Offense No. 1671134265 - 1761288266

Seitz was added to the list for a prior criminal conviction in South Dakota for deception to obtain dangerous drugs, a misdemeanor.

In 2013, The Jamestown Sun reported Seitz pleaded guilty to obtaining hydrocodone from different medical practitioners at the same time, accepting a plea deal that dropped two other charges. He was sentenced to 60 days of unsupervised probation, ordered to pay $300 plus court and prosecution costs and get a chemical dependency evaluation. Following the trial, Seitz resigned as the Freeman, South Dakota police chief.

Prior to this accusation, Seitz was also named a defendant in a lawsuit from December 2021 when two Put-in-Bay visitors accused him of false arrest and using excessive force.
