About this story:
Lee Enterprises’ Public Service Journalism team has spent more than a year digging into the causes and implications of Native Americans' disproportionately high rates of fatal encounters with law enforcement.

Future stories will continue to examine fatal encounters that have occurred on and off tribal lands in South Dakota, where such deaths are particularly common.
