Concerns heard, discussed
Calica defended the present force
and noted the change in the com
munity over the past several years.
"People no longer live at the town
core. There are a lot of homes in
rural areas, more cars, more live
stock. We do deliver messages and
we have taken people home."
In response to Clements' "mon
key" statement. Daisy Ike stated.
"It's the peoples' choice to get
drunk... They make monkeys out
of themselves.
A few people spoke of specific
!
court cases in which they were
involved. Pierson Mitchell stated
that those discussions "should be
held in court.. .This isn't the place
to bring it up."
Chief Judge Richard Frederick
explained the current bail bond
procedures, stating that in 1985,
signature bonds were allowed. "De
fendants wouldn't show up for court
and the two people who signed for
the defendant wouldn't show. The
person who committed the offense
wasn't held accountable for the
crime."
One person questioned the pro
priety of the system, saying it is
"causing difficulties among a lot of
people" and that they were losing
their jobs because of the policy.
Frederick stated, "People aren't
losing their job because of the pol
icy. If they do lose their jobs, it's
because they Ve already been warned
by their employers three or four
times. The best way to avoid the
bail bond is to stay out of trouble."
Rudy Clements first read a letter
from a member who questioned
the "integrity of the judicial sys
tem" and then presented his own
statement. "I believe that the size of
the police department needs to be
seriously evaluated. Costs per per
son are much higher in Warm
Springs" than in other communi
ties. R udy Clements suggested that
duties of individuals be defined,
then "evaluate their performance
in those areas." He concluded his
statement, saying. "I don't want to
create a problem, I want to help. I
feel both the court and police depart
ments are too large. Clarification
of duties is required."
Jackson stated that Council is
not involved in the day-to-day opera
tions of the organization. "We know
we need to do things. Many people
are dissatisfied and if we can't find
a solution, we ask the people to
help us.. .we're all the same, we're
all people. We have to be tolerant
of other's situations."
In an emotional statement, Daisy
Ike said she "used to blame eve
ryone around me for my prob
lems." And feeling peoples' frustra
tion, Ike stated she was sympathetic
but it was time for people to accept
responsibility for their actions.
"Don't break the law if you don't
want to get involved in the system.
You must learn right from wrong.
If we don't curtail problems now,
we won't have Indians. If we don't
listen to our ancestors, our budget
will just keep getting bigger and
bigger to take care of our people."
Myra Shawaway listed several
things that she would like to see
done. She suggested that all non
members be required to go to an
introductory program about the
Tribe. She also stated that manag
ers and assistants should be required
"to spend time with subordinates
and social time with tribal members."
She suggested that the Law and
Order committee be reinstated. Other

stated that there are too few offic

area should be cut in half. We can't
do justice to all situations."

suggestions included prisoner
checks by someone not connected
with the police or court, more PR
work by the police and hire older,
more mature judges.
Along the same vein as her mother,
Leona Ike stated that maybe the
reason tribal members don't want
to work in the police department is
because they "get harrassed by their
friends." She stated that people
should handle their own lives and
quit making others responsible
for your problems."
. . .
Pierson Mitchell echoed the youn
ger Ike's message, adding that 36
people signing the petition means
"taking 36 people out of their place
of employment to listen to a bunch
of gripes." He went on to ask, "Are
we teaching people to accept respon
sibility or are we teaching that the
Tribe will take care of them?" He
emphatically added, "Why don't
we do some growing up and accept
some responsibility?"
Jeff Sanders stated that "per
haps we have too much Council
interference in peoples' lives. We've
lost the single most controlling
factor the family unit. It's broken
and it's not working. We always
come to the Tribal government
with our hand out for services." He
suggested that people "depend on
the law to tell them what, how and
when to do something" when kids
go astray. "Maybe we need to teach

parenting skills." He concluded,
saying, "I don't know what people
need to do to prove that they don't
need government interference in
their lives... I realize some people
aren't capable of handling respon
sibility. But when will they?"
Claude Smith, Sr., who is an
appellate Judge, stated that he has
"learned a lot" since becoming a
member of the judicial committee.
"The Council and tribal attorneys
make the laws," said Smith. "The
judges follow the laws. It's wrong
when Council intervenesand reverses
the court's decision. There has to
be a division of power between
Council and court." Jackson added
that a separation of powers is neces
sary. "It's ethically wrong to inter
fere in court cases."
At the conclusion of the meet
ing, Council member Delbert Frank
stated he felt the meeting to be one
of the best he had ever attended.
He expressed satisfaction that pro
blems were discussed. He suggested
that possibly the people "are the
cause of the problem. I used to
blame everybody for my problems."
He stated that "we try to fix things
after the fact a band aid solution.
No matter how much money we
spend, it's not going to solve the
problems." He suggested preven
tion programs would help alleviate'
problems. "We're all looking at the
same thing. We can help another."
