I received the following account from a reader who described the possibility of Skinwalkers or similar witchcraft being practiced by Native tribes other than those in the Southwest.
"Hi, Lon. Thank you for all of your work over the years. I love listening to your youtube channel. I just listened to your Skinwalker Q&A (which is my favorite show...solo Lon).
The following story may sound somewhat farfetched given the accused shapeshifter's reputation. But I believe my friend 100%. Basically, a well-known Lakota Chief was a shapeshifter and practitioner of black magic. My friend in Rosebud, South Dakota, told me that she has seen his legs begin to turn to dog legs during the ceremony (where she was a food vendor). She would beat a hasty retreat when she would see this. She is from Oregon and is part of the Klamath tribe. Oddly, out in Oregon she was adopted by Lakota people and then married a Lakota man.
The following story is somewhat sordid and tragic. My friend reported to me that the Lakota Chief was getting up in years and had a much younger wife. This wife was so shameless that she would yell out of her tent at pow-wows and other gatherings asking who would come and service her because her old man cannot do so. (I'm ready to barf just typing that, I'm sorry). Unfortunately, and stupidly, my friend's son, SB, became involved with Lakota Chief's wife. This got SB a mark on his head.
SB was beaten and left for dead by the Lakota Chief's henchmen. A good Samaritan stopped and got him help and he was revived. Later, SB was called because he heard that a Rez girl was being attacked. That time, SB was killed by the Lakota Chief's men who had set him up. They kept moving the body, so it took five years to find it. Nobody in the tribe would talk and there has never been justice for SB. The Lakota Chief and his family were a bunch of meth head, black magicians. The Chief himself was a shapeshifter and murderer. If you compare the obituary in the 'Lakota Times' to that of the rest of the world, you will see exactly what the actual Lakota people thought of him vs. the glamorous image and legacy he left behind. This is a case of bad people sometimes doing the right thing.
I thought that I would mention this to you as it is an example of shapeshifting (possibly Skinwalker) as far north as South Dakota.
As to a bundle and pipe given to the Lakota, it was later sold it to two German women several years ago after the holder became drunk. The woman who bought it died soon after. As in the churches, there is a serious illness in the medicine lodge. My Hopi friend recently told me that they have a prophecy that states, "Our children will kill us." In the next breath, he said that everyone in his village is walking around like zombies with their cell phones. It would appear that the prophecy is being fulfilled right now.
This was a heavy note to receive Lon. I thought I would share it with you after listening to your podcast. Witchcraft is no joke and the Harry Potter books and industry leave me enraged. There are actual spells in those books and it opened the door wide open for children and adults to be drawn to witchcraft. I don't know about you, but I can certainly see the results of it in our culture. It is tragic. Your fan, A"
