San Xavier Man Receives 340-Month Sentence for Abusive Sexual Contact with Minor
Ski Redfeather Johnson, 37, of San Xavier, Arizona, received a 340-month federal prison sentence on May 7, 2026, after pleading guilty to four counts of abusive sexual contact with a minor. The term locks in more than 28 years of incarceration for the offender and closes the federal case in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona.
usmagazine.comTUCSON, Ariz. — Ski Redfeather Johnson, 37, of San Xavier, Arizona, was sentenced to 340 months in federal prison on May 7, 2026, by U.S. District Judge Scott H. Rash.
Johnson previously pleaded guilty to four counts of abusive sexual contact with a minor, per the U.S. Department of Justice release dated May 14, 2026. The sentence equates to 28 years and four months.
The conviction directly affects the victim, a minor identified in the case records, by concluding the federal prosecution that held Johnson accountable for repeated abusive sexual contact. Federal sentencing guidelines for such offenses carry statutory maximums that allow terms exceeding 20 years when multiple counts are grouped.
The operational change is straightforward: Johnson moves from pretrial or presentence status into a 340-month term of imprisonment followed by supervised release. The sentence took effect immediately upon imposition on May 7, 2026.
Downstream, the Bureau of Prisons must designate Johnson to a facility equipped to house long-term sex offenders. Federal authorities will also enforce any court-ordered restitution or special assessments tied to the counts. The U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona has completed its role in this prosecution, shifting oversight of the sentence’s execution to the Bureau of Prisons and the U.S. Probation Office upon release.
No further trial or evidentiary hearings are required in this matter.
This case is one of multiple federal prosecutions of sexual abuse on or near tribal lands in Arizona handled by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona in recent years. The charges were brought under federal statutes that apply when the offenses occur in Indian country or otherwise trigger federal jurisdiction.
