A Canadian man and a U.S. woman were charged in the 1975 slaying of a fellow American Indian Movement member, who prosecutors say was killed because the group’s leaders suspected she was a government informant.
John Graham, of the Southern Tutchone tribe in Canada’s Yukon territory, and Thelma Rios are accused of taking part in the kidnapping and killing of AIM member Annie Mae Aquash. Prosecutors announced the indictments on Sept. 10.
