The Nez Perce Tribe graciously hosted my office and federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement for a full-day workshop in Lewiston. Over 100 law enforcement professionals representing 13 Idaho law enforcement agencies participated, including our partners in Clearwater, Idaho, Lewis and Nez Perce counties. We were also joined by federal, state and tribal judges, as well as defense attorneys.
