>Supreme Court says Oklahoma can prosecute crimes in ‘Indian country’

The Oklahoma decision announced Wednesday limits the reach of a 2020 ruling that reclassified a large swath of the state, including the city of Tulsa, as Indian land and disrupted criminal prosecutions. The 5-to-4 decision, criticized by tribal leaders, said state officials have the authority to prosecute non-Indians for crimes against Native Americans within a tribal reservation.
This has huge implications for prosecuting those that use the reservations for trafficking and drug trade.
