Child porn charges dropped against a man who was acquitted of gang-raping a young Utah girl

A man was accused of participating in the gang rape of a 9-year-old girl. He was acquitted.

And of accessing dozens of images of child porn. On Tuesday, a Uintah County judge dropped those charges at a prosecutor’s request.

Randall Flatlip spent more than two years in jail as these cases made their way through the system.

But now he’s back home at the Crow tribal lands in Montana. And his defense attorney, Loni DeLand, said when he called his client this week to tell him the last of his legal troubles were gone, Flatlip was relieved.
