Thank you!!! this will be so helpful in understanding/separating out what's going on. most of his family doesn't pay attention, and he really needs an advocate/don't think his lawyer is experienced enough with tribes/how they operate. And yes, I'll definitely reach out to the lawyer you suggested.

edit to answer a question; it was too much for the tribe/they're keystone cops, so it is at the federal level now. so yes, I wouldn't mind if they moved it somewhere else. think the local media ruined his chances of a fair trial. even non thinking people in the courtroom could see how confused the prosecution was/tried to make everything about race, etc. it was like many of his own 'people' turned against him/lots of liberals on reservation.
