She was 17 months old when she was removed from the custody of her biological mother, who had a substance abuse problem. Her biological father, who is Native American, had an extensive criminal history, according to court records cited by the Los Angeles Daily News.

She will live with a Utah couple who are not Native Americans but are related by marriage to her father.

So they need to protect her heritage, which involves her people being torn from their families and normal lives, by tearing her from her family and normal life.

Sore subject for me. I first hand witnessed the pain and suffering my bil and sil endured at the hands of the state as they handed over the child they had raised from six weeks old back to her biological "mother" who was still failing her drug test, was not working, and all while her family accused her of prostituting to pay for her drug habit.

It was a secret to nobody that the mom wanted her back to get benefits from the state.

It is amazing that anyone in power would be so irresponsible to hand over child to that woman.

Damn that's brutal.

Hopefully the foster family can find a way to get her back.

"The only surprising turn of events is the lengths the foster family has gone to, under the advice of an attorney

with a long history of trying to overturn ICWA, to drag out litigation as long as possible, creating instability for the child in question," the group said.

Translation: We don't care about children, we only care about furthering our agenda.

if you've ever fostered you would know the payments received don't nearly cover the cost of fostering a child. Also, it's easier to get a $1 million mortgage than to get approved to foster.

You are an example of someone who doesnt have a clue yet thinks they do have one.

Foster payments =\= welfare/EBT, etc

What a terrible situation for these folks especially the 1% indian

Good enough to get a casino check.

As to foster families, there are certainly some heartwarming tales out there, but just as many people doing it for that gubmint check. Sad situation for the kids, regardless.

I'm not going to search but I remember the NAACP trying to do the exact same thing when black kids were in white foster homes or when white families were trying to adopt black kids.

She must have high cheekbones.

How can this be considered in the best interest of the child?
