Pechanga's DECADE of DISENROLLMENT: The Manuela Miranda Descendants

This week marks the 10th anniversary of the Disenrollment of the Manuela Miranda Descendants.  It must be known that the Manuelas STILL have family in the tribe, including a cousin Frances Miranda, that was instrumental in getting them removed from the Pechanga Band.  This is about MONEY and POWER.   

The reason for disenrollment?  As a FIVE YEAR old, Manuela Miranda cut her ties to the tribe.   Yes, reasonable people believe that this is ridiculous, a FIVE year old can't make a decision, or wouldn't.  But hey, they don't need a real reason, they can do what they want, they are SOVEREIGN remember.

John Gomez Jr. parks his silver family van in the back row of one more anonymous strip mall off California’s Highway 79, an hour and a half southeast of Los Angeles, on a windswept ridge overlooking the Temecula Valley.

Gomez, his dark hair barely betraying a sprinkling of gray at his temples, steps out of the van and walks away from the mall, to a barren dirt lot marked off with adobe walls.“This is where Pablo is buried,” he says as we peer over the locked iron gate.
