A brutal beating by two police officers of an Indigenous man in California near the Nevada border has left more questions than answers.
Just after 2 a.m. Saturday, police came across an “agitated” man with his dog in an empty parking lot in Bishop, California. Now the man, George Barlow, III, Paiute, age 32, reportedly is in intensive care, and his dog is dead.
Police had received a call about violation of a restraining order. No one linked to the call was found. But the two responding officers did see Barlow yelling outside a closed gas station on the Bishop Paiute Reservation.

Today we go back to March 2019.
It was an all-out effort to find a Marine, missing in the snow packed wilderness of the Eastern Sierra. Other than his rental car, found on March 9, 2019, at his planned trailhead above Independence, there were no signs of missing Marine 1st Lt. Matthew Kraft.
Kraft began his ski hike on February 24, 2019. He was to descend from the High Sierra trails by March 5, into USMC’s Mountain Warfare Training Center, located off the Sonora Pass, on Highway 108, 23 miles northwest of Bridgeport.
Mono, Inyo, and two other county Sheriff’s Departments, along with air units from CHP, National Guard, and the Marine Corps, and resources from three surrounding national parks were deployed in the search effort.
