LETTER: Offended former tribal officer’s guilty plea

Published 1:30 am Friday, November 8, 2019

I find that Ernest Penn’s plea of guilty in a child rape is offensive.

He had a responsibility as a law enforcement officer to maintain the highest standards.

That does not include sex with a minor.

What about the women and young girls that he would be in contact with on the reservation?

Are we not concerned with their safety?
