Cole Brings Plenty was not just an actor. He was a son, brother, cousin, and an integral part of our community. His untimely death has left us with many unanswered questions and a deep sense of injustice. Despite being told that there was no foul play involved in his death, we know that his hair was cut intentionally - an act we believe to be a hate crime.

Too often, such incidents involving our people do not receive national coverage or make it to the news. This lack of visibility is not only disheartening but also contributes to the perpetuation of such injustices. According to the National Crime Information Center's 2016 report on missing persons, Native Americans – who make up about 2% of America's total population – represent more than 5% of all unsolved missing person cases in the country (source: National Crime Information Center).

We demand justice for Cole Brings Plenty and for all those whose stories remain unheard or are swept under the rug due to inadequate media coverage or insufficient investigations. We call upon law enforcement agencies and legal authorities to conduct a thorough investigation into Cole's death.

This petition is more than just seeking justice for one individual; it is about standing together as a community against bias and hate crimes. It is about ensuring that every life matters and every loss is grieved properly.

Please sign this petition if you believe in justice for Cole Brings Plenty and stand with us in demanding fair investigations into such tragic incidents.
