Case 033: Anna Mae Aquash
•
Cabin 13
February 24, 1976. A rancher in South Dakota discovered the body of a Jane Doe at the bottom of a ravine. The victim was later identified as Anna Mae Aquash, a Mi’kmaq activist, an educator, and a mother of two.
The coroner declared exposure as the cause of her death. Unhappy with this ruling, the family obtained a court order for a second autopsy.
This second examination revealed the horrible truth: Anna Mae Aquash had been murdered.
