Chief Lawson was a good human. Condolences to his family during this time.

It is with deep sadness that the Muldrow Police Department announces the passing of former Chief of Police George E. Lawson.
Chief Lawson dedicated nearly his entire life to the law enforcement profession, serving his community with honor, integrity, and unwavering commitment. Policing was more than a career to George—it was his life's calling. His selfless service touched countless lives, and his legacy will continue to be remembered by those who had the privilege of serving alongside him and those he faithfully protected.
George had a heart for both people and animals. He was known for his compassion, generosity, and willingness to help anyone in need. Beyond the badge, he was a devoted family man and a loyal friend who cherished the time he spent with those he loved.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Lawson family, his friends, and all who knew and loved him. We ask our community to keep them in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Chief George E. Lawson's service, kindness, and dedication will never be forgotten. May he rest in peace.
End of Watch. Thank you for your service, Chief Lawson.

Cherokee Nation will host a two-day ‘Expungement Expo’ on May 19 and 20 at the Chota Center in Tahlequah. The event is open to eligible Cherokee citizens and eligible citizens of other federally recognized tribes seeking to clear their criminal records. Cherokee Nation citizens will also be connected to programs and services that support long-term stability and success.

The inaugural Expungement Expo is being held in partnership with Oklahoma Indian Legal Services and will provide free legal screenings, application assistance and support for filing expungement petitions for criminal convictions in state court under Oklahoma law.

The goal is to reduce barriers to employment, housing, education and financial stability while strengthening Cherokee families and communities.
