The hard numbers on missing and murdered indigenous women (MMIW) do not include the near-misses: Yurok women have told the tribal court they were approached by would-be traffickers, but made it to safety. The tribe has since declared a state of emergency on MMIW and hired a full-time investigator for such cases.
We get a refresher on the scope of the issue and some discoveries, with investigator Julie Oliveira and her supervisor, Rosemary Deck.
