MAY 8, 2001 Chief Seattle's grave in Washington was vandalized which the Suquamish Tribe on Monday said the FBI was investigating. The tribe said the attack was apparently tied to a plan to develop housing on the reservation. Scott Crowell, the tribe's acting executive director, said a newspaper article about the development was found at the site. Chief Seattle was Suquamish and Duwamish. The Suquamish Tribe is federally recognized; the Duwamish's status is on hold at the Department of Interior. Get the Story:
