The tribe is receiving $622,000 in federal funding to address security gaps that were discovered in the months following the incident.

Sen. Tammy Baldwin helped secure the funding as part of a $187 million package for various projects in Wisconsin.

“The funding will support enhanced security measures to protect tribal members and visitors and allow the Oneida Police Department to obtain better information faster and respond appropriately to future incidents,” read a statement from Baldwin’s office.
