and normally I would go digging but right now I have a house full of company.
The BIA does have jurisdiction. More than likely a sheriff or sometimes a highway patrolman will get around to coming out to see what all the ruckus is about. They go back to town, leave a message on the nearest BIAs answering machine and shoot off an email. In most cases, thats all they do. For the most serious crimes, the locals can lock up a suspect for 48 hours. That is as long as you can hold someone without charging them. If the BIA doesn't make it in those 48 hours, the suspect goes free.
