THE LONGEST WALK COMMITTEE
May 19, 2022
The Longest Walk Committee is comprised of family and friends of Dennis Banks. We have worked for seven years to organize and carry out the mission of Longest Walk 5.
This year, a criminal incident occurred as a portion of our Walk was proceeding in a remote area of the Michigan Upper Peninsula. We don’t know much more than this. As soon as our leadership team was informed of the incident, we contacted local law enforcement for assistance, and asked for assistance from Tribal Police nearby.
An investigation is ongoing. The court system has jurisdiction of the incident now.
We are concerned for the welfare of both of the women who were involved.
Sincerely,
Darla Banks, Executive Coordinator
