Rural blog

The Village is a Daily News blog about life and politics in rural Alaska. Its main author is ADN reporter Kyle Hopkins. Come here for breaking news on village issues, plus interviews, videos and photos. But that's just part of the story. We want to feature your pictures, videos and stories, too. Think of The Village as your bulletin board. E-mail us anything you’d like to share with the rest of Alaska -- your letters to the editor, the photos of your latest hunt or video of your latest potlatch. (We love video.)

Kyle Hopkins

I was born in Sitka, have lived in Kake, Skagway and Fairbanks and joined the ADN in 2005 after writing for the Anchorage Press and Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. I started blogging for the paper in 2006 with The Trail, our blog about the governor's race. Then came the Alaska Politics blog. Now I'm covering government and rural affairs and live in Anchorage with my wife, Rebecca. (Update: Our daughter Alice was born May 31. Thanks everyone for the suggestions.)

Marshall: More on the feds' dismissal of subsistence fishing charges

KYUK has more details this week on the feds’ move to dismiss charges against a Marshall police officer who was ticketed in September for an illegal subsistence fishing trip.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ticketed Jason Isaac, 32, $275 for his role in a king salmon fishing trip made in protest of summer subsistence restrictions. Isaac was the only person to admit to taking part in the trip, according to the Tundra Drums.

Heather Kendall-Miller, an attorney for the Native American Rights Fund, followed the story and met with a regional Fish and Wildlife director to ask that the charges be dropped, KYUK reports.

“It just seemd like very poor judgement on the part of Fish and Wildife,” she told the station.

The Ohogamuit Traditional Council in the village announced the dismissal Oct. 29, the Tundra Drums says.
