Native American Drug and Gang Initiative boosts tribal state police cooperation
Lac du Flambeau tribal Police Capt. Bob Brandenburg and Wisconsin Justice Department Special Agent Tom Sturdivant head a joint NADGI effort uniting eight Wisconsin tribes with state law enforcement. The initiative, funded by a 2007 grant of 461000 dollars, aims to infiltrate drug rings, share data, and train tribal officers to curb reservation crime amid sovereignty questions and staffing challenges.
