Choctaw Tribal Council briefed on FBI investigation at Pearl River Resort

The Choctaw Tribal Council was briefed on an FBI investigation under way at Pearl River Resort in a meeting Tuesday morning closed to the press.

A Neshoba Democrat reporter was asked to leave a regular meeting so the council could hear the report, although the council had declined to go into executive session.

The Democrat reporter was singled out and asked to leave the meeting, although others remained.

Choctaw Attorney General Donald L. Kilgore told the council they needed to discuss "why the FBI is here."

Miko Beasley Denson asked that the matter be discussed in executive session.

Tribal Council member Ken Edwards objected, saying he wanted the entire Tribe to know what's going on.

The council voted 12-4 to remain in open session, although the Democrat reporter was told to leave.

The meeting adjourned a couple of minutes later.

Ty Breedlove, a spokesman for the FBI in Jackson, would not confirm deny the investigation.

"We can not comment on that matter at this time," he said.

One Tribal Council member mentioned computer hard drives being taken before the Democrat reporter was dismissed.

Pearl River Tribal Council member Cyrus Ben asked the Democrat reporter to leave the meeting.

At the meeting Kevin Edwards was elected Vice Chief and Ben was elected Secretary Treasurer.

There was shouting and name-calling at the meeting.

This will make the election even more fun up there.

We still don't know anything..no updates anywhere?

WLBT says the feds have "taken over" the Silver Star and WAPT said some accounting employees have been sent home.

Chief Beasley Denson has been arrested.

Can you confirm that, it's not posted anywhere!

Apologies if this is a dumb question, but how does the FBI have any jurisdiction on an indian reservation? Isn't the reservation a sovereign nation?

I am hearing that Chief Denson was laundering money for the mob thru the casino. Since the election, he has been destroying records and pulling money out of the casino to repay the mob before they come after him.

If so, then the mob is really stupid.

It will go back to Mercury Gaming and Doug Pattison (plus his gang of hired thugs.) They are as dirty and slimy as they come.

This will be very ugly before it's over and may lead to bigger fish in a large metropolitan area...with a white house in the center.

Chief Denson is apart of the Mob because he has ties to New York, Singapore, India, Chicago, Ill, and some areas in Mississippi!
I believe that the Indians need Our respect from all of this and plenty of Prayers because this may hurt them in the long run!!!

The websites for the Pearl River Resort, Geyser Falls Water Park and Dancing Rabbit Golf Course are down. The feds may have seized / shutdown on site servers.

Wow what a shut down!!!

Last I heard, Gen. Paul Harvey was the General Manager for both Choctaw Casinos. He was formerly Executive Director of the Mississippi Gaming Commission. This could turn into quite a scandal.

@Maya Barker-Frantz: I suspect the websites may have been down from the sudden surge of traffic when the story hit the paper, not from being taken off-line by the feds. They work fine now.

maybe now we will see drastic reduction in the budget deficit.

obama rules

That's one of the main problems. Obama thinks that he rules. He doesn't. He works for us. He may bow down to every tin pot dictator in the world, but I will never bow down to him, or any other "public servant".

The Council tried to suspend the rules today and overrule the decision to have a new election. Supposedly took a 2/3 vote, but the motion failed on an 8-8 tie.

Denson left the council meeting during discussion about the FBI raid - told AG Kilgore that he was not to speak to council without talking to him (Denson) first.

New Vice-Chief today. Rumor has it that he intends to declare Anderson as Chief.

Other rumors that the raid has to do with election issues. Maybe in addition to mob ties; maybe nothing more than buying/attempting to buy votes.

Going to be interesting. Choctaw Fair is going on this week as well - should bring fireworks (and firewater) both inside the council headquarters and all around outside at Pearl River.

Good luck, Chief Anderson. Time for Miko to go away - either home or to jail.
