A
man who shot and killed a tribal police officer in a remote corner of
the nation’s largest American Indian reservation has been sentenced to
30 years in federal prison.
Kirby Cleveland, 37, was sentenced Monday in
U.S. District Court for gunning down Navajo Nation Officer Houston
James Largo four years ago.
Cleveland's attorneys had sought several
delays over the last year because of the coronavirus pandemic and to
gather evidence and find witnesses to testify on his mental condition in
hopes of receiving a reduced sentence.
