Share This Article

RAPID CITY, S.D. — Court documents indicate a second person is facing charges in connection with the death of a 21-year-old woman at Ellsworth Air Force Base last year. Drew Durand, 24, is named in the documents and was arrested in Rapid City in late April on a charge of accessory after the fact and misprision of a felony. The documents do not say how Durand may have been involved in the case against Quinterrius Chappelle. He is charged in the murder of Sahela Sangrait, whose remains were found by a hiker outside of Hill City in March. Sangrait was initially reported missing in August of 2024. Investigators believe she was murdered on or around August 11th.
