CASPER, Wyo. The Wyoming Supreme Court has disbarred attorney Terri V. Smith of Arapaho, Wyoming, the Wyoming State Bar said on Wednesday.
“The order of disbarment stemmed from a 2019 felony drug arrest which ended with Smith pleading guilty to two felonies and being sentenced to six months in prison, to be followed by six months of home confinement, to be followed by three years of supervised release,” the Wyoming State Bar said. “Smith stipulated to the disbarment, which was presented to the Board of Professional Responsibility (BPR).”

Leslie Spoonhunter has been cooking all her life. She s Northern Arapaho and sees her food truck having a rotating menu. Choke cherry gravy, Indian Tacos, I want to serve buffalo, elk, and deer on the menu. Our ancestors used big game day to day. They harvested berries and whatever they could find, Spoonhunter said.

The snow is piled outside the small yellow shop. The signage outside says Diamonds, Jade, and Indian Jewelry because the building used to be a jewelry shop. Now, it holds a different sort of precious commodity: musical instruments.
Sean Francis is teaching a lesson inside. He and his student are nestled between where Francis rehearses with his band and various instrument repair projects. The student drove half an hour through the snow to get here because Fremont Music is the only music shop for hours in any direction.
Francis grew up in Lander and is a member of the Eastern Shoshone tribe. The Wind River Indian Reservation is right next door, and Francis serves music aficionados of all ages.
