Pit River Indian trespass trial in Burney

KPIX's Mike Lee reports from Burney Office Building in Shasta County Northern California on October 9th 1970. There are (silent) views of the surrounding countryside and inside the Office Building where a group of Pit River Indians are on trial accused of trespassing on PG&E property. The Indian's attorney claims: "These defendents could not have committed a crime because they sincerely believe it is their land and they have no criminal intent." Another Indian spokesman goes on to describe how local corporations may be: "Willing to support us in our fight against the Federal government for return of lands."
