American Indian prostitutes in Minnesota report a high incidence of being physically and sexually abused as children, multiple rapes and being homeless -- major factors in how they ended up in the sex trades, according to a new study out Thursday. Compiled by the Minnesota Indian Women's Sexual Assault Coalition, the "Garden of Truth" report provides a glimpse into the often violent lives of the women, a group that former U.S. Attorney for Minnesota Thomas Heffelfinger calls "the most victimized segment of the entire U.S. population." "The...
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Advocates for sexual assault victims are releasing a report about the horrors of American Indian women who have been forced into prostitution. The report is called Garden of Truth and is based on the personal stories of 105 American Indian women in the Twin Cities, Duluth and Bemidji. The women have shared details about the violence they experienced, including child sexual abuse, rape and frequent beatings. Those behind the study say 98 percent of the women interviewed have been homeless, and 92 percent wanted to e...

Opposing attorneys in the murder trial of Stephen Louis Cobenais Sr. agreed on a major point during opening statements Wednesday: A revolver that Cobenais was holding on Aug. 26, 2009, went off, killing Mario Highler. But the attorneys disagree on Cobenais’ intentions when the gun fired. Cobenais didn’t mean to shoot Highler, defense attorney David Malban said Wednesday during opening statements in St. Louis County District Court. Rather, he intended to evict Highler from a party where he wasn’t wanted. “It was a horrible accident,” Malban sa...
Adoption proceedings for an Indian child whose parents' rights were terminated must take place within state courts, not tribal courts, the Minnesota Supreme Court ordered Wednesday. In the 4-2 decision, the court reversed two earlier orders granting the White Earth Band of Ojibwe permission to handle the child's adoption within its tribal court. In its order, the Supreme Court reasoned that under the Indian Child Welfare Act, tribal authority is limited to foster care placement and termination of parental rights -- not adoptive placement. The...
