GREAT FALLS – Two people have been charged in Great Falls with trafficking of persons and sexual abuse of children.

Court documents state that a child under the age of 13 told investigators that she had been sexually abused by Eugene Edwin Sherbondy when she was approximately four or five years old.

The child said that Sherbondy had given money to Corena Marie Mountainchief, and that Sherbondy then sexually abused her.

The child said that she also remembered that Sherbondy and Mountainchief had injected her with a drug with a needle in her arm.

The child had seen a photo of Sherbondy in a July news segment and recognized him as the person who had sexually abused her.

Sherbondy is charged with three felonies: trafficking of persons; sexual intercourse without consent; and sexual abuse of children.

Mountainchief is charged with two felonies: trafficking of persons, and sexual abuse of children. Bond for each was set at $250,000.
