ARRESTS, CITATIONS
•David Paul Keimig, 74, of Hermiston, just would not leave,
according to Oregon State Police, until he got a ticket.
Keimig was camped south of the Meacham/Kamela junction
on the eastbound side of Interstate 84 for archery hunting, state
police reported. The property, however, belonged to Hancock
Forest Management.
A Hancock employee at about 11:30 in the morning told
Keimig he was trespassing and needed to leave. State police
reported Keimig “became belligerent and argued.”
Another employee later in the afternoon told Keimig to go,
and again the Hermiston man grew hostile and argued.
The next contact with Keimig came from state police trooper
Ryan Sharp. Keimig was angry about the situation, according to
state police, and Sharp cited him for second-degree trespassing.
And Keimig left the property.
•Milton-Freewater police arrested a man on charges he
molested two girls. Cruz Castillo Gutteriez, 49, of Milton-
Freewater, faces two counts of first-degree sexual abuse.
Police and court records also show Gutteriez goes by Cruz
Gutierrez Castillo and Cruz Castillo Gutierrez.
Police Chief Doug Boedigheimer in a written statement
said the investigation began on June 7 when an adult told
Milton-Freewater police Gutteriez may have sexually abused
two juveniles he knew. After the investigation, police turned over
the report to the Umatilla District Attorney’s Office for review.
Court records show a grand jury indicting Gutteriez on Aug. 23,
accusing him of the committing the sexual abuse in January
against two girls, both younger than 14.
Police on Wednesday arrested Gutteriez without incident,
according to Boedigheimer, and booked him into the Umatilla
County Jail, Pendleton. Court records also show Circuit Judge
Jon Lieuallen set Gutteriez’s bail at $100,000. His next court
appearance is Sept. 21 in circuit court in Pendleton.
•Hermiston police arrested Christopher Alvin Phillips, 23, and
Baltazar Manuel Mendiola, 37, both of Hermiston, for posses-
sion of methamphetamine. Police also arrested Phillips for
third-degree theft and Mendiola for violating a restraining order.

LOTTERY
Courtesy of InYo Entertainment
Thee main cast of Neither Wolf Nor Dog (left to right): Dan (Dave “David” Bald Eagle), Kent (Christopher Swee-
ney), and Grover (Richard Ray Whitman).
Indian-made indie film ‘Neither
Wolf Nor Dog’ shows at Wildhorse
“There’s nothing more suspect than
a white man trying to tell an Indian’s
story.”
So says writer Kent Nerburn in a
long-distance phone call to his wife
from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation
in the film “Neither Wolf Nor Dog” by
director Steven Lewis
Stephenson. That
line sums up much
of the tension present
in the film — the
divide between white
America and the
Native American
world.
“Neither Wolf Nor
J.D.
Dog” is an adaptation
Kindle
of the awarding
Comment
winning, creative
nonfiction book of
the same name by then-Minnesotan
(now Oregonian) author Kent Nerburn.
The film opens with Kent receiving
a mysterious request to speak with a
Lakota Sioux elder named Dan on the
Pine Ridge Reservation more than 400
miles away. The frail Dan, played by
veteran Native American actor and
stunt man Dave Bald Eagle in his final
role, requests that Kent write a book
based on a collection of insights he
has claimed to have written over the
course of his life. The project turns into
a spiritual road trip with Dan’s sidekick
Grover and dog Fatback across
the South Dakota Badlands, which
culminates in a visit to Wounded Knee.
It is there that Kent connects with guilt
over his people’s treatment of Native
Americans.
The title of the book/film is derived
from the Sitting Bull quote “I do
not wish to be shut up in a corral.
All agency Indians I have seen were
worthless. They are neither red
warriors nor white farmers. They are
neither wolf nor dog.” It would seem
to apply to Dan, who, by being placed
in a boarding school and stripped

in families about history and hope and
the ways of the human heart. It is a film
that is overflowing with love and tears,
and gives voice to both what divides us
and what unites us.”
Stephenson added: “It was always
a top priority for me to have this film
available in the heart of Indian Country.
Half of the first six theaters it played in
were owned by tribes or tribal members
and that has continued as much as
possible. So we are thrilled to be
playing in their theater there ... There
has been no more satisfying response
to the film than hearing that an entire
school took all their pupils to the
theater to see it. This has happened with
reservation schools more than once.
Dave Bald Eagle was a glorious man.
To be able to share him with youth
and the broader world is an amazing
privilege.”
Didactic elements aside, “Neither
Wolf Nor Dog” is an admirably well
executed film. The script, adapted
from the book by both Nerburn and
Stephenson, features dialogue that
feels natural and never insulting to the
viewer’s intelligence, and Stephenson’s
cinematography captures the stark
beauty of the Badlands region. When
viewed on the big screen one forgets
that they are watching a scrappy
independent film that was produced by
two Kickstarter campaigns amounting
to approximately $65,000. It would
make for an interesting double feature
with the recent Hollywood film “Wind
River,” also playing at Wildhorse,
which addresses the divide between the
white and Native American worlds as
well, though in a much less emotional
and spiritual way.

of his culture, exists in a no man’s
land between the Indian and white
worlds. In another sense it applies
to Nerburn, who by the end of the
film has transcended his patronizing
and naïve view of Native American
values, relationship with the land and
spirituality. Both men are neither white
nor Indian.
It’s exciting that an independent film
whose subject matter is so pertinent
to the community is being screened
at the theater on the Umatilla Indian
Reservation. America’s treatment of
indigenous populations — rapacious
at best, genocidal at worst — is a
legacy that our country has yet to
come to terms with (Standing Rock
being a recent high profile example
of this). Although there are numerous
partnerships between the Confederated
Tribes and various government and
business entities, a cultural divide
and lack of understanding of tribal
history on the part of white America
persists. Viewing this film would be an
enormously enlightening experience for
any audience member, be they white,
Native or otherwise, and help to bridge
the gap between these two worlds.
For both Nerburn and Stephenson,
screening “Neither Wolf Nor Dog”
on the Umatilla Indian Reservation is
a point of pride and a goal in and of
itself.
“Both Steven and I look upon this
project as our gift back to the Native
community for the gifts and insights
they have given us,” said Nerburn.
“Steven cut a worthy line through the
book and brought the characters to
life with breathtaking authenticity. My
hope is that people on the rez and in
Native urban communities will look
at this film and say, ‘Yes, this is how it
is. This is who we are.’ Native friends
have told me that seeing the film
gives the children pride and gives the
elders a feeling of being understood. It
becomes a source point for discussions
