Bonner Ferry man charged with sex crimes

March 9, 2013
A 55-year old Bonners Ferry man was charged  April 30 with three felony counts of lewd conduct with a child, each of which could lead to life in prison if he's convicted.

Danny G. Nieman, 1015 Limber Road, stands accused of inappropriately touching an eight year old girl twice over a three day period in March.

The third charged stems from an incident that allegedly occurred in Boundary County 37 years ago, when, in the late summer of 1975, he allegedly engaged in the same type conduct with a Bonners Ferry woman just seven years old at the time.

According to court records, statute of limitations questions in that case have been raised, but thus far that charge stands.

Nieman, free after posting $10,000 bond, has been ordered to have no contact with the alleged victims or their families; he is due to make an initial appearance in court May 13.
