Civil rights report delayed
www.ap.org

A report on the treatment of American Indians in South Dakota is
reportedly held up because of lost paperwork. U.S. Civil Rights
chairwoman Mary Frances Berry says the problem is with federal
law enforcement officers. The commission held hearings in Rapid
City last month on allegations of racial injustice. Berry says she's
asked attorney general Janet Reno to remind federal agents to
release information to the commission. But Berry says the people
involved claimed they lost the request. Berry says after Reno talked
to them, the agents found the paperwork. A report on the commission's
findings is due in March.
