WHO IS DEB PINE?

One more reminder that is of concern to tribal citizens is that Deb Pine, during a first time run for the Sault Tribe Board of Directors and an unknown contender for a seat in Unit One, has managed to garner the highest number of votes for that position.

Disbelief is the tone for her success as the highest vote-getter just as disbelief was the tone when Bernard Bouschor found a way to slither back where we didn't want him with the help of the tribal judicial system who chose to ignore the secretarial election and overturn the results when we voted to keep him away from having any authority over tribal members and our money. Hmmm...could there be a connection there?

If you don't know who Deb Pine is, she is the daughter of Jolene Nertoli, one of the 7 + 2 who Bouschor awarded with a large portion of your money in a prearranged, secret termination of employment. Pine also supports Bouschor and his actions and has for many years.

Yes that's right....Pine is the daughter of a woman who was part of the 2.66 million dollar scamming of the tribe. Did more than 1000 voters actually vote to add another Bouschor supporter to the tribal board? Don't those of you who did think Bouschor has enough support on the board already with Abramson, HOFFMAN, McCoy, MASSAWAY and PETOSKEY?

If Pine is successful in the general election, tribal members will find out exactly who Deb Pine really is.
