I believe the shooting took place on reservation grounds which put it in federal jurisdiction.

The Federal Enclaves Act was passed in 1817 -- nearly a century before the FBI even existed.
It's also interesting that Peltier was apparently never charged for the crimes the FBI was allegedly investigating under federal jurisdiction at the time of the shooting.
