Jury selection opens for final Haskell rape case
The second criminal trial of Galen Satoe, 22, one of two former Haskell Indian Nations University students accused of rape, began with jury selection. Satoe faces two felony counts of rape and a count of aiding and abetting attempted rape as prosecutors pursue a verdict after prior hung juries in related cases. The trial follows earlier proceedings against Latoe and Wheeler, with Wheeler later convicted of aggravated battery in a separate case.
