Send us a textOn August 26 2017 two kayakers on the Red river in North Dakota, came across a body wrapped in plastic and duct tape hung up on a log around 545pm. It was later determined to be 22 year old Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind. A native woman who was reported missing on August 19. A couple was arrested earlier that week on suspicion of conspiracy to commit kidnapping. They were also in possession of a newborn child that the police believed was Greywind's. Join us today in this horrific true crime edition of Nightmares of the Americas. Our women, girls, and two-spirts are being taken from us in an alarming way.  As of 2016, the National Crime Information Center has reported 5,712 cases of missing American Indian and Alaska Native women and girls. Strikingly, the U.S Department of Justice missing persons database has only reported 116 cases.  The majority of these murders are committed by non-Native people on Native-owned land. The lack of communication combined with jurisdictional issues between state, local, federal, and tribal law enforcement, make it nearly impossible to begin the investigative process. According to some tribes, red is the only color the spirits can see.  By wearing red, it is everyone's hope that we can call back the missing spirits of our Indigenous sisters and daughters and lay them to rest. For more information on the MMIW movement follow the link belowhttps://www.nativewomenswilderness.org/mmiwNightmares of the americas and the behill network are teaming up with the long hairs.
