From the Alaska Dispatch.
An excerpt:
The report of the all-volunteer, bi-partisan commission, “A Roadmap for Making Native America Safer,” highlights Alaska’s violent crime epidemic. This includes a domestic violence rate 10 times the national average and sexual assault rates 12 times higher. It’s a crisis in the Bush, but also in Anchorage and other cities where families flee when village life becomes unbearable. Where criminals keep victimizing women and children because they were never held accountable for their crimes back home.
