James Allen Red Dog : ウィキペディア英語版 | James Allen Red Dog
James Allen Red Dog (1954–March 3, 1993)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=James Allen Red Dog )〕 was a mixed Sioux and Assiniboine from Fort Peck Indian Reservation who was executed at his own request for murdering Hugh Pennington and who had previously been convicted twice of armed robbery. As a result of his crimes, Joe Biden introduced legislation that required states to be notified by federal officials when dangerous criminals were placed in their jurisdictions. ==Early life== Red Dog's heritage was a mix of Sioux and Assiniboine.〔 He was a member of the Lakota tribe,〔 and grew up on Fort Peck Reservation in Poplar, in northeast Montana.〔〔〔 He blamed poverty on his reservation for his crimes later in life; he said that there were no jobs and he could only make a living on crime. According to a family acquaintance, who asked not to be named, at age 8 or 10 Red Dog tried to emulate the lifestyle of an older half-brother whom he admired, who as of 1993 was in a federal prison. The acquaintance also said that life had "very little" to offer Red Dog.〔 Delaware deputy attorneys Steven P. Wood and Peggy J. Hageman, who prosecuted Red Dog, tried and failed to find a motive.〔 According to Wood, attributing Red Dog's behavior to his upbringing is too easy: "There is no denying the privation Native Americans are subjected to on reservations, but the simple fact is there are hundreds of thousands of Native Americans raised in those conditions, and precious few become multiple murders", he said, as well as that his killings were "essentially motiveless".〔 Six of his eight sisters, however, said that he was not a "multiple and motiveless killer". They also said that "() people of Delaware should be thankful that our brother () is willing to give his life, like a man, instead of spending thousands and thousands of the taxpayers' money on appeals".
