Investigation reveals dark depths of Indigenous probate crime coverup - Verified News Network

This year marks 100 years since Indian Rights Association secretary M. K. Sniffen conducted a preliminary investigation into the scandalous probate system attacking the Muscogee (Creek), Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole tribes, known at the time as the Five Civilized Tribes. What he found in Oklahoma would eventually lead to a scathing report that shocked the nation. 

Verified News Network (VNN) and Lucinda Hickory Research Institute (LHRI) spent the summer touring archives locations across the U.S., determined to find out more about the dark history Oklahoma and cities like Tulsa remain steadfast to suppress.
