Print article HELENA, Mont. Jermain Charlo vanished in June 2018. The Confederated Salish and Kootenai tribal member hasn’t been seen since. Valenda Morigeau, Charlo’s aunt, reported her missing to the Missoula Police Department in the days after her disappearance. But Morigeau said the detective initially assigned to the case failed to take the report seriously and was slow to act, a pattern she said is common when Native Americans report missing loved ones. “You would think that there would be more urgency to go find the person that is missing,” Morigeau said. “Here we are, three years later, because they assumed she was avoiding responsibilities.”
BILLINGS - A major step in addressing the Missing and Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP) epidemic was celebrated Thursday, as the nation s first Tribal Community Response Plan (TCRP) has been completed.
This plan is meant to create a more efficient and effective response to missing persons of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes (CSKT).Â
The tribe, along with representatives from federal, tribal, state and local law enforcement, developed guidelines for the plan through a series of meetings and discussions. They began to formulate this plan exactly four months ago, which they also said took a lot of hard work to make it a reality.
