A 28-year-old Wyoming woman is dead after rolling her vehicle on the Wind River Indian Reservation Friday evening, according to the Wyoming Highway Patrol.

Another defendant, Thomas Brown, pleaded guilty in July 2019 to one count of conspiracy to distribute oxycodone, and was sentenced to time served.

Conviction of kidnapping and aiding and abetting is up to life in federal prison.

Advocates say legal medical marijuana and industrial hemp could diversify the reservation's economy.

Terri Smith faces up to 40 years imprisonment and up to 12 years of supervised release, according to federal sentencing guidelines.

Unlike some traditional drug courts, tribal wellness courts are tailored to the culture of the community they serve.

Tribal IDs can currently be used to register, but a driver's license, its number or a Social Security number must also be presented.

The sheriff's office said further details would be released at a later date.
