NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.032
Is that news at four and welcome back

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:02.032 --> 00:00:04.299
to the second half hour of the news

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:04.299 --> 00:00:06.253
at four the Shoshone Bannock tribes

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:06.253 --> 00:00:08.539
are asking for Bingham County Sheriff

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:08.539 --> 00:00:10.401
Craig Rowland to resign from office.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:10.401 --> 00:00:11.936
The Idaho Attorney General's office

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:11.936 --> 00:00:13.146
charged Sheriff Rowland with

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:13.146 --> 00:00:14.506
two felonies and a misdemeanor.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:14.510 --> 00:00:15.690
A probable cause affidavit

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:15.690 --> 00:00:17.165
says Roland pointed a gun

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:17.170 --> 00:00:18.650
at a girls youth group,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:18.650 --> 00:00:20.426
while the tribes weren't directly involved.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:20.430 --> 00:00:21.722
They're upset over comments.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:21.722 --> 00:00:23.337
Sheriff Rowland made our Andrew

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:23.337 --> 00:00:24.748
Bart line has been following

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:24.748 --> 00:00:26.043
the story for us today.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:26.050 --> 00:00:28.458
Andrew walk us through what we know

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:28.458 --> 00:00:30.548
about the investigation up to this point.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8296944

00:00:30.550 --> 00:00:31.638
And the sheriff's comments.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:33.544
Yeah, the affidavit says on November 9th,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:33.550 --> 00:00:35.251
a Latter Day, Saints youth group went

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:35.251 --> 00:00:37.098
door to door in their neighborhood.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:37.100 --> 00:00:38.465
They were dropping off what

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:38.465 --> 00:00:39.557
they call thankful turkeys.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:41.408
You can see a picture of what

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:41.408 --> 00:00:42.839
these notes look like here.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:44.695
The kids would ring the doorbell and

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:44.695 --> 00:00:46.952
then run back to their car with their

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:46.952 --> 00:00:48.673
youth group leader before the recipient

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:48.673 --> 00:00:50.745
of the note would see who left it.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:50.750 --> 00:00:52.717
Sheriff Rowland got his gun and met

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:52.717 --> 00:00:54.299
the church members at their car.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:54.300 --> 00:00:55.077
The affidavit says.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:55.077 --> 00:00:56.890
Roland pointed the gun at the youth

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:56.939 --> 00:00:58.399
group leader and group members,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:58.400 --> 00:00:59.309
mistaking their identity.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:00:59.309 --> 00:01:01.127
The sheriff later told investigators quote.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:01.130 --> 00:01:02.615
I've had drunk Indians drive

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:02.615 --> 00:01:03.506
down my cul-de-sac.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:03.510 --> 00:01:05.894
I've had drunk Indians come to my door.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:05.900 --> 00:01:07.699
I live just off the reservation and

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:07.699 --> 00:01:09.716
we have a lot of reservation people

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:09.716 --> 00:01:12.225
around us who are not good people the

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:12.225 --> 00:01:14.235
Shoshone Bannock tribes say I'm not.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:15.710
They aren't directly involved with

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:15.710 --> 00:01:17.520
the incident or that youth group,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:19.396
but they are now asking for the

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:19.396 --> 00:01:21.238
sheriff to step down from office

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:21.238 --> 00:01:22.873
for his actions and comments.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:24.668
A tribe statement today says quote,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:24.670 --> 00:01:26.338
we hope the women and children

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:26.338 --> 00:01:28.153
involved will be able to heal

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:28.153 --> 00:01:29.437
from this dramatic incident.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:29.440 --> 00:01:31.228
The incident should not have occurred,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:31.230 --> 00:01:32.840
but proves racism still exists.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:34.112
We need major relationship

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:34.112 --> 00:01:35.384
building between our communities.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:35.390 --> 00:01:37.130
The Bingham County Sheriff's Department

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:37.130 --> 00:01:39.766
says there is no body that is available

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:39.766 --> 00:01:42.102
to speak with us today and they did

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:42.102 --> 00:01:44.010
not respond to the tribe statement.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:44.010 --> 00:01:45.012
When we ask.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:45.012 --> 00:01:47.016
Bingham Sheriff's Office to the Bingham

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:47.016 --> 00:01:48.573
Sheriff's Department excuse me told

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:48.573 --> 00:01:50.700
the Sheriff Roland is not on leave.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:50.700 --> 00:01:53.643
He is working in the office today and the

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:53.643 --> 00:01:56.443
sheriff is due to be in court December 22nd.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:56.450 --> 00:01:57.404
He's facing felony,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:57.404 --> 00:01:58.040
aggravated battery,

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:58.040 --> 00:01:59.960
felony aggravated assault and a misdemeanor.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:01:59.960 --> 00:02:01.232
Exposition of a gun.

NOTE Confidence: 0.90203255

00:02:01.232 --> 00:02:01.550
So

NOTE Confidence: 0.8873228

00:02:01.550 --> 00:02:03.225
even while he was under

NOTE Confidence: 0.8873228

00:02:03.225 --> 00:02:04.710
investigation he remained. In office,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:04.710 --> 00:02:05.686
yeah, for my understanding,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:05.686 --> 00:02:07.659
I talked with a reporter over East Idaho

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:07.659 --> 00:02:09.290
News who's been covering this as well,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:09.290 --> 00:02:11.218
and we're kind of confused a little bit.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:11.220 --> 00:02:12.884
It sounds like he was on leave when

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:12.884 --> 00:02:14.587
it was controlled by the county,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:14.590 --> 00:02:16.036
but once the state took over

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:16.036 --> 00:02:16.759
with the investigation,

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:16.760 --> 00:02:17.728
he's back at work.

NOTE Confidence: 0.8739085

00:02:17.728 --> 00:02:19.191
Interesting, all right, Andrew?
