Stealing Mary (The last red indians - Beothuk)

Two skulls in a Scottish museum spark a modern-day forensic investigation into the 1819 murder of a Chief and the brutal abduction of his wife, "Mary". They were among the last of the Beothuk of Newfoundland -a mysterious people who painted themselves red and who inspired the English term "Red Indian".

The man responsible for their death was a British Justice of the Peace. He testified in court that the killing was an act of self-defense however, modern forensic science, a surprise witness, and DNA testing will prove his version was a lie; a cover-up for a revenge killing and kidnapping that would lead to the extinction of an entire People.

There is still a man today with the name of Thomas June in newfoundland who would be the closest to true beothuk blood

[CitizenofTatooine]

It would be nice if Beothuk descendants were organized as a federally recognized tribe.

The Beothucks were hunted down like animals . this is a fact , In the shadow of the Cross they were exterminated even Mary (Shanawdithit ) was treated as a specimen not a human being you can put up as much smoke and mirrors as you wish but the truth is written in history , there is no mystery to where they went ! They were exterminated genocide .

It always made me mad when someone says Whites,Whites,Whites. I am White and i am Serb and my ancestors suffered so much and we still suffer but we never stole Native American lands and never killed Native Americans nor any Balkan people did it. Englishmen,Scottishmen,Spaniar­ds,Dutch and Portugueses are those ones which did magnum crimen! Great Britain does it to many peoples even today, very cunning, having fire in one hand and water in another one.Islamic GB soon...thanx to Lord.
