Self Proclaimed Medicine Man, Nathan Chasing Horse used deceptions: First published in 28/08/2011 posted with updates from the original 10/08/2023

This was my experience in confronting Nathan Chasing Horse in 2007. He had no compassion for his victims. His propensity for girls started being more openly displayed by the summer of 2007. Documentaries, Articles, Indigenous Podcasts, My Podcast is under construction. Archival documenting yearly posts posted with transcripts will be published here.

I see people's children grow up and they too start dancing and following the pow-wow trail. When my nephews came home, they talked about this traditional healer and how they have seen him on their pow-wow journey. He leaves his wives outside the arena while he and his bodyguards go into the arena. My sister-in-law and my niece saw him at another pow-wow while they visited with one of his wives. They said he had nine wives beading while he danced. (2023 – These wives would take shifts 24/7 beading fully beaded outfits commissioned to traditional dancers. These wives were doing slave labor for him for decades) It sounds like a fairy tale and yes, these days one would think that women would know better. Yet, I tend to believe that if there are abusers there are women who love abuse (love in the sense they have convinced themselves he loves them) or live in fear of him should they speak the truth about their circumstances and suffer his physical assault. The cycle of abuse, I guess. Time does not wait for anyone, especially for those who continued control by Nathan. Conventional families are different from his cult as they grow, yet all humans need love. These wives are no different. Their addiction to him is greater than being addicted to hard drugs or alcohol.

I read that people who support this man called "Nathan Chasing Horse" (if you wish to call him a man!) says he is a good man. Well, he was a good man before I met him. He will always be a good man because people have a perception of what is bad and wrong. (All people who are traditional dancers or traditional healer are good) Even before I met him there were notes on the internet saying he was a good man, but he is not what he appears to be when it comes to helping women and children. He does not set an example when he left all his children behind over the years fended for themselves and others to have their mothers fend for them. I call his wives "drug monkeys" because he uses them the way drug lords use monkeys to deliver drugs, instead, they buy him things without nobody seeing him giving them the money. This he does so no law can say that he makes money. He hides it via his wives. Records show others purchase major items on his behalf so the sellers never to ask to testify against him in court. I

t sounds easy because he has never sentenced for rape, yet teens here have so many problems their encounter with him is nothing, so they forget. Or their mothers become depressed and say who cares and he continues to get away with sexually abusing girls. If you have a solid relationship with your spouse and have a stable home, you have no worries because he will not bother you. Only those women and children whose families are or have a history of mental illness (FAS, depression or bipolar, he manipulated vulnerable people) does he use. I have read where these women swear, they will kill him if he ever shows his face here and yet others protect him by not informing the police. (2023 – even if when reporting him to their local police authority, those authorities did nothing. For example: forming a task force to arrest him)

just think that Indigenous people do know their traditional healers like Nathan and if his followers did their research, they would know that he is not an accepted traditional healer. They just saw him as an actor not as a healer. Their lines blurred there. I write hoping there are people out there who are watching him. I am hoping there are girls out there who will stay the course and not back down when charging him with rape. (2023 – January, Nathan arrested) It is not that he is their boyfriend, and he is there to give them gifts. Once he gets what he wants he leaves and if you are one of his wives the only reason, he has not left you is because you listen to his demands. You have something he wants and that is his money from your communities or followers from your communities.

He has never really had a family. (I do not think he ever tried, as he continued to have a wondering eye. He would leave to be with other women.) He tried and after ten children with eight different women he decided he could never settle down, so he decided to have nine wives all at once. (He deliberately used his girlfriends, then his wives to hide his obsession with children) Yes, women love to share him. I did not use his name previously because I was threatening with a lawsuit, and I also figured who will believe me as the women within my home community did not listen to me nor did they hear my warnings about him while he was here. Yes, I had good reason to remain anonymous. Women can be very mean via lateral violence)

I don't have children and I see people's children grow up and they too start dancing and following the pow wow trail. When my nephews came home they talked about this medicine man and how they have seen him on their pow wow journey. He leaves his many wives outside the arena while he and his body guards go into the arena. My sister-in-law and my neice saw him at another pow wow while visiting with one of his wives. They said he had nine wives beading while he danced. It sounds like a fairy tale and yes in these days one would think that women would know better. Yet, I tend to believe that as long as their are abusers there are women who love being abused. It's called the cycle of abuse, I guess.

I was watching my neighours on FACEBOOK and saw their children's pictures realizing that time doesn't wait for no one. Conventional families are not the same yet all humans need to be loved. I read that people who support the this man called "NCH" says hes a good man. Well, he was a good man before I met him. He will always be a good man because people have a preception of what is bad all wrong. Even before I met him there were notes on the internet saying he was a good man, but he isn't what he appears to be when it comes to helping women and children. He doesn't set an example when he's left all his children behind over the years for some to fend for themselves and for other having their mother's fend for them.

I call his wives "drug monkies" because he uses them the way drug lords use monkies to deliver drugs, instead they buy him things without nobody seeing him giving them the money. This he does so no law can say that he makes money. He hides it via his wives. Records show others purchase major items on his behalf so the sellers can never be asked to testify against him in court. It sounds easy becaues he's never been sentenced for rape yet many teen here have so many problems their encounter with him is nothing so they forget. Or, their mothers become depressed and say who cares and he continues to get away with sexually abusing girlds.

If you have a solid relationship with your spouse and have a stable home you have no worries because he will not bother with you. Only those women and children whose families are or have a history of mental illness does he use.

I've read where these women swear they will kill him if he ever shows his face here and yet others protect him by not informing the police.

I just think that Native American people in the USA ahve it so bad that only medicine men like him are seen as healers and nice people. The lines of normal are blurred there. I write hoping there are people out there who are watching him. I am hoping there are girls out there who will stay the course and not back down when charging him with rape. It's not that he's their boyfriend and he's their to give them gifts. Once he gets what he wants he leaves and if your one of his wives the only reason he hasn't left you is because you listen to his demands. You have something lhe wants and that his money from your communities or followers from your communities. He's never really had a family. I believe he tried and after ten children with nine different women he decided he could never settle down, so he decided to have nine wives all at once. Yes, there are women who love to share him.

I really don't use his name because I figure who will believe me.

Memories of my late mother saying her dad, my grandfather taught her in a warning that the Dakota Medicine was good, but not anymore. As far back as 81 years ago, fake medicine people deceived their own people for money, power, and glory. Our grandmothers showed us through their prayers helping us celebrate love and helping us celebrate life within our families. Through my own lived experiences, I had to eliminate my own self-defeating behavior. Our people are depending on us to bring justice into our Indigenous Communities. Our Indigenous girls and women are going missing at an alarming rate and are being human trafficked. With little help in finding them or bringing their killers or abusers to justice, I started this blog. I never thought I would live to see such as year as 2023. Today, I feel blessed to be able to hold those who reached out to me in high regard. I am truly grateful, Creator’s Will guided me in my lifetime to see Nathan Chasing Horse arrested. And, yet at the same time, I grief for all his victims who died before they could see him brought to justice.

Intergenerational truama further perpetuated.

It was a HBO movie set I first met Nathan Chasing Horse. I worked along side my late mother who was literate in Dakota. We didn’t spend too much time with him as he knew how to somewhat speak Lakota. Mostly we were around Actors like Adam Beach and Eric Schweig teaching them the proper pronunciations. My first impression of him was not that of an actor rather that of an indigenous young man with many ex-girlfriends. I ignored his arrogance as I managed my way through being a consultant on behalf of my later mother for the Director and the executive producers of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. Micheal Spears was stopped at the Canadian border so his role needed to be filled and since Nathan Chasing Horse was available he auditioned for the part with my mother speaking Dakota to him. The original intention of the movie was to have most of the dialogue in Lakota; however, as production started only few dialogues were kept. The Sioux culture needed representation. I advised them that the songs sung in Lakota would add a difference to the lack of dialogue and they agreed. I suggested they use Nathan’s singing ability and his ability to pronounce Lakota correctly as an asset. Prior to this Nathan was only hired as a stand-in as a Sioux Jailer for Sioux prisoners, nothing more and nothing less. It was in the fall of 2006. Nathan made connections with my younger brother and my oldest niece whom I took on the movie set. My brother started promoting Nathan in the schools and asked if I could help connect him with others within my community. From the ending of the movie in November of 2006 until March 2007, Nathan, and his entourage of three men left. During this time, I reached out to my friends who were having problems with the daughters. We met and hatched a plan to raise money for the mother’s and their daughters to attend Yuwipi, sweats and Sundance. It was the trip to the Sundance in Wolf Point that would cost the most. We tried to fund raise that turned out to be a disaster; however, once members of my community met and supported Nathan the money for the Yuwipi and Sweats were found, but not the Sundance; however, my younger brother was helped with Nathan and his entourage for his Sundance in the summer of 2007. Our ancestors carried within them intergenerational trauma that was further perpetuated in the creations of Indian Residential Schools. It’s a dark place of racism and genocide. Much of what I’ve written about pertains to sexual deviancy. I basically thought the 12-step programs of AA, Al-Anon, Sex Addiction and other 12-step programs helped. As we’ve all grown up around family violence; I’ve met many men who were exposed to such extreme violence. Much I write about here is focusing on is Limerence, because of intergenerational trauma. As the Yuwipi focuses on Limerence practices and I believe was once good. I’ve found as more and more non-indigenous people and indigenous people seek out by cultural appropriation through exploitation. Culturally appropriating our sweats and ceremonies doesn't mean you are healed or that you are automatically adopted into an Indigenous way of knowing. Being around indigenous communities isn't a place to hide your disorders rather it needs to be a place of communities like AA, Al-non and other 12-step programs. There’s no magic wand nor some psychic Psyche who can conjure up a quick fix. It takes time and a lot of hard emotional work. It's just sad that our own people are predators to our own girls and women. I was born into such a way of thinking, and I don’t blame anyone. I’ve learned we as human beings have more in common than our differences. This need for validation and acceptance is as old as time itself, so be kind to yourself and love the person you discover within yourself.
