District 27 District Attorney Jack Thorp called Tuesday s McGirt forum a waste of time.
District Attorney Jack Thorp said a forum with Gov. Kevin Stitt and a group of prosecutors to discuss the impact of the U.S. Supreme Courtâs McGirt ruling was a waste of time, although conceptually, the idea was solid.
The forum, held Tuesday evening in the Cox Business Convention Center in Tulsa, drew criticism before it began. Participants said the event was designed to help victims of criminal cases affected by McGirt, and to discuss the ruling s impact on how criminals are prosecuted in the state. But tribal leaders were skeptical about the forumâs actual intent, with Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. reportedly calling it âan anti-McGirt rally for political reasons.â
