FREE MMIP PATREON EPISODE: Kristen Huntington
Manage episode 420748491 series 3473822
This week and next week we will be releasing a Patreon episode to bring light to the MMIP epidemic.
This week is the story of Kristen Huntington who was murdered by her live in boyfriend, and the father of her the 9 month old daughter Chanel. But that was just the beginning of this story. Before his arrest, Rustad gave custody of Chanel to a woman that was a friend of his, a white woman.
This began a 3 year legal battle for Chanel's grandmother Arlene, who by the passing of the Indian Child Welfare Act, had first rights to custody of her granddaughter. But for some reason Nikki Richman decided that she wanted to fight this bill all the way to the Supreme Court.
And although Chanel maybe home now, Arlene must now fight for custody from the man who murdered her daughter.
