SCANDAL: The Crisis of Missing People on Tribal Lands

Floodlights

In October 2021, 33 year-old Emmilee Risling spent a few nights at the home of an acquaintance at the "End of the Road" on the Yurok Reservation. After she supposedly left, Emmilee was never seen or heard from again. In this episode, we interview Judge Victorio Shaw, a cousin of Emmilee, who explains how federal and state law contributed not only to the MMIP crisis, but the challenges associated with finding Emmilee.
