Speaking of truth eventually coming out, here's a "Blast from the Past".

On Feb. 24, 1976, a rancher found the body of Anna Mae Pictou Aquash curled in a gully. Ms. Pictou Aquash was 30, with a broad smile and a sharp, determined attitude. She believed in AIM, family members said, and was close to AIM leaders.

Indians here and on other reservations immediately suspected federal agents or the Guardians of the Oglala Nation, a security force allied with the tribal government and federal authorities.

Peculiar circumstances fueled those suspicions: at first the authorities said they could not identify the body, though they had questioned Ms. Pictou Aquash in the past. A coroner said she had died of exposure, overlooking the bullet wound, which was found only when her body was exhumed for a second autopsy.
