Got a gram, Grandmother? (Navajo Nation, New Mexico)
Police arrest three generations of methamphetamine dealers in Dilkon
By George Hardeen / Navajo Nation President's Office
DILKON, Ariz.— Navajo Nation police officers executed a federal arrest warrant Tuesday and took a Navajo grandmother, her daughter and granddaughter into custody for dealing methamphetamine in this small, remote community.
Police arrested Effie Nezzie, 81, reputed to be a Navajo traditional diagnostician known as a hand trembler, her daughter Marjorie Conley, 63, and her granddaughter, Frederica "Bubba" Conley, 39, at their home one mile from the Basha's shopping center here. Also at home at the time was the one-year-old infant daughter of Frederica Conley. Her five-year-old son was at his Navajo Headstart program.
The three were transported to Flagstaff for their initial court appearance. Navajo police said the family had been dealing for the past three years, and residents had recently complained about their activities again.
