A Claremore, OK, man is sentenced to 11 years in prison for sexual abuse of an incapable victim in Indian Country.

 The sentence was handed down to 47-year-old Cody Paul Miller on Friday by a federal judge. Miller was found guilty of the charge in January stemming from a July 2023 incident at Miller's home. The victim stated that she and two minors began consuming alcohol while staying at Miller's house that night. She fell asleep and later woke to find Miller assaulting her. Miller claimed the interaction was consensual.

Miller is a citizen of the Cherokee Nation and will remain in custody until he is transferred to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons to begin his sentence.
