PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — The Bureau of Indian Affairs superintendent on the Crow Creek Indian Reservation has returned to work, about two months after being stabbed in the back.

BIA spokeswoman Nedra Darling this week confirmed to the Capital Journal that Patrick Duffy had returned to his duties.

Meanwhile, the attorney for suspect Brian Iron Boulder has successfully requested a delay in his client’s trial.

The 51-year-old Iron Boulder has pleaded not guilty to attempted murder of a federal employee, assault on a federal employee and assault resulting in serious bodily injury. If convicted he could be sentenced to 50 years in prison.

Iron Boulder was to stand trial this week. Federal Judge Roberto Lange moved the trial start to July 28 after defense attorney Douglas A. Abraham asked for more time to prepare.
