“My sincere thanks to Choctaw Nation Chief Gary Batton and the Choctaw Nation Department of Public Safety for providing a wonderful venue for the summit,” said United States Attorney Christopher Wilson. “This summit and other opportunities like this give our local law enforcement community-drawn from tribal, local, state, and federal agencies-an opportunity to dialogue and develop best practices as federal Indian law and policy evolves.” “On behalf of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, thank you to United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma,” said Kara Bacon, Tribal Prosecutor, CNO.
