Clyde Makzine Osborne | Bannock County Jail
POCATELLO — A man who failed to register as a sex offender after moving from Fort Hall has been federally indicted.
The felony case against 31-year-old Clyde Makzine Osborne has been moved to federal court. State charges were dismissed earlier this move following an indictment filed in September, court records show.
Osborne was sentenced to three years in prison for sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl in 2011, when he was 19.
According to federal court documents obtained by EastIdahoNews.com, after moving from Fort Hall, Osborne failed to register as a sex offender. He faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and $250,000 in fines if he is found guilty. The penalty would also include five years to life of supervised probation.
