Free Richard Lafuente!
Did the kid from Plainview really drive his El Camino over Eddie Peltier on a North Dakota Indian reservation in 1983? Nobody on the rez thinks so, and neither will you. So why is he still in federal prison?

I have relatives that live on the SLN reservation, I am from South Dakota, and an enrolled member of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. Out of curiosity one day I stumbled on to Cat West’s website which also brought me here to this site. I am saddened by how our people are potrayed and sad but true, reservation life is this way. How can this go on like this for so long? Eddie’s death, I mean. It is just sad, and I feel so badly for his family, and the family of those whom are falsely accused of his death. This is 2011! We should be able to do something to solve this. And if it is due to a bigger corruption, how can this not be ignored?! It is outrageous! My heart goes out to Eddie’s family, Richard’s family and other family members who have lost because of this. I applaud Cat West for standing up for those who couldn’t and didnt have a chance to do it themselves’, Eddie and Richard, for getting thier stories out there. And to this paper for writing this story.
