Investigation or desecration? Tribes press for power to stop autopsies

Mushkoob Aubid's family only wanted to take him home.

The 65-year-old spiritual leader died Feb. 7, a day after his car veered off a northern Minnesota highway and struck a utility pole. The family planned a four-day ritual based on the traditional Ojibwe religion known as Midewiwin that included ceremonial washing and dressing of the body.
