File This Under “I Don’t Care”

J.J. Jackson* | March 20, 2006

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - A Mescalero Apache family in southern New Mexico has sued the producers of
Steven Spielberg’s television miniseries, “Into the West,” claiming a set stylist cut an 8-year-old girl’s hair without regard for tribal customs.

“It’s part of our culture not to cut a girl’s hair until her Coming of Age ceremony,” the girl’s father, Danny Ponce, said Friday in a telephone interview. “The only ones allowed to do that are the parents. Nobody asked for permission.”

Ponce filed suit in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque on March 6, naming Turner Films Inc. and the unknown stylist as defendants. The lawsuit seeks $250,000 for emotional distress and $75,000 in damages. - Yahoo News & Associated Press
