UPDATED: SAGINAW CHIPPEWA Council Member: After VIOLATING Human Rights of Disenrolled Members, Arrested for DRUG LAWS Violations

In an example of KARMA   Saginaw Chippewa Tribal Council member  Amanda Oldman, 44, of Union Township was charged Friday with one count of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud, a four-year felony.

The MORNING SUN has the story of the illicit dealings.  If she's a law breaker,how can we trust that she's doing the right thing by native people?

With a felony conviction, according to the tribe's constitution  she is to be removed from the council and lose her per capita.

I understand it couldn't happen to nice person
