Classic.

"nvestigators described Mr. Oakes as an intimidating trafficker who concentrated on stealing drugs and cash from a prosperous and growing cluster of criminals who, like Mr. Oakes, have built sprawling mansions near worn-down trailers on this reservation straddling the Canadian border."

This Oakes fellow really sounds an awful lot like a cop.

Cory Doctorow has a good story called "Liberation Spectrum" that covers similar Indian / TAZ territory, SWAT teams and all. Of course, this is Doctorow, so it's all from a VC / wireless startup angle.
