The former governor of the Santa Ana Pueblo has been released from jail but still faces serious federal charges. 

Authorities arrested Bruce Sanchez after he was indicted on federal embezzlement and tax evasion charges. Federal investigators also arrested real estate developer Thomas Keesing. 
Authorities say Sanchez and Keesing ripped off a group meant to develop valuable land where the Albuquerque Indian School used to be. 
Authorities said they embezzled more than $3.5 million.
