In 1988, General Electric officials in Indiana destroyed a
2000-year-old Native American ceremonial mound, setting into motion
a series of shocking political and legal battles. To placate Native
American activists and professional archaeologists, federal
prosecutors and General Electric scapegoated Art Gerber, a
prominent artifact collector who dug briefly on the destroyed
mound. Mr. Gerber's prosecution under the federal Archaeological
Protection Act made legal history-- and frightened tens of
thousands of Indian relic collectors. THE GE MOUND CASE is a story
of political intrigue and zealous prosecution, the latest from true
crime author Jim Fisher.
