@TheRealNews@indigenouswire@RobCapriccioso Please read article - Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫʼ friends in face of repeated destruction of ceremonial space, kidnappings are calling for more Indigenous journalists covering this issue of U.S. violation of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫʼ sovereignty. Can you write about it?

(1 of 5) Big J, an Ongweoweh person who “Cayuga Nation Police” (CNP) assaulted and kidnapped on 8/28, is back in the hospital with a staph infection in his foot due to CNP violence and Cambria County prison's failure to address his requests for medical attention. #HalftownMustGo
(4 of 5) Because of the progression of a staph infection in his foot, Big J was admitted to a hospital again on 9/19. On 9/27, doctors determined that the infection had progressed to the point that Big J needed to have surgery to remove two bones from his foot.

~20 CNP are raiding a Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫʼ home right now. Nightmare come true for another family living under dictatorship enabled by US violation of Indigenous sovereignty. #HalftownMustGo#HisClanMotherSaidSo#HonorTheTreaties

BigJ: still recovering in ICU. Woody & Buzz: still locked up in Cambria county, PA. Kidnappings + abuse enabled by U.S. violation of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' sovereignty--failing to heed removal of dictator Halftown. #FreeTheCayugas#HalftownMustGo#HisClanMotherSaidSo#BidenMeetTheSachems
