This Dec. 11, 2019 photo provided by the Oklahoma State Department of Corrections shows Shannon Kepler. The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals has overturned the manslaughter conviction of the former Oklahoma police officer's based on a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that much of eastern Oklahoma remains an American Indian reservation. The court on Thursday, March 18, 2021, granted the appeal of Kepler. He's a former police officer and member of the Creek Nation who was sentenced to 15-years in prison for the 2014 killing of his daughter’s boyfriend in Tulsa on land within the historic reservation of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation.
