[QUOTE="Aries, post: 3628768, member: 44328"] It's a question of who has jurisdiction. If you commit a crime in the United States, the Iranian government can't prosecute you because they have no jurisdiction. The federal government can't prosecute you for violating state laws, etc. Due to treaties, federal law, state law, etc., the question here is who has jurisdiction to prosecute? Apparently, even though it occurred in the state, the state lacks jurisdiction to prosecute tribal members (probably due to a treaty). I don't know all the details of this case, so I'm just talking "in general" and making some assumptions. [/QUOTE]
