    NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – The FBI says a recent joint operation with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) is shedding new light on hundreds of criminal investigations on tribal lands.

    From June to September the FBI sent 51 special agents to ten field offices covering tribal communities. The agents worked alongside BIA investigators to dedicate more time and resources to solving violent crimes on tribal lands. The FBI says ‘Operation Not Forgotten’ opened or continued more than 300 cases nationwide.

    In New Mexico, officials say the operation has uncovered new leads in a 2020 unsolved murder on the Navajo Nation near Farmington. The feds say the operation resulted in more than 40 arrests nationwide, helped more than 400 victims and identified or recovered nine child victims of abuse and neglect.

    Child victims of abuse, we on the outside of the reservations have no business saying what is abuse. You want to know what (Abuse )is not having running water electricity indoor plumbing. Our governor knows the conditions. What has she really done to help! If it were me I would’ve helped out indigenous peoples instead of illegals. I would rather have given the money to help with the getting them to the 21 century. Just my opinion!
