Six years after Dead & Gone in Wyoming first examined cases of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in the episode 'Indigenous', Scott Fuller brings you back to the Wind River Reservation to revisit those stories and the lives behind them.
The episode remembers Elyxis (Ohetica) Win, Winter Rose Jenkins, Alexandrea WhitePlume, and Marisa Spoonhunter, while confronting the violence, addiction, unanswered questions, and institutional failures surrounding their deaths.
It also features a new interview with Robert Spoonhunter, who served approximately a decade in federal prison after pleading guilty to voluntary manslaughter in the death of his sister Marissa, and Terri Smith, a former chief tribal judge convicted in a federal drug case. Today, both are involved in re-entry work aimed at helping tribal members return home from incarceration.
