Family Seeks Justice for Mary Johnson-Davis
Community rallies for renewed response from law enforcement at December 11th event.
Tulalip, Washington, December 2022 — Tulalip tribal citizen and beloved family member Mary Johnson-Davis is still missing two years after vanishing from the Tulalip Indian Reservation in late 2020. Mary was last seen November 25, 2020 - the day before Thanksgiving - walking down Fire Trail Road in Tulalip. She was reported missing more than two weeks later on December 9, 2020 by her estranged husband. Despite unsuccessful search attempts by the Tulalip Tribal Police, Ms. Johnson-Davis’s sisters Nona Blouin and Gerry Davis remain vigilant in their call for justice for Mary and choose to remember her on this two-year anniversary by demanding a renewed response from both tribal and federal law enforcement in the search for their relative.
The family and their supporters are on a desperate mission to find Mary and bring her home. After more than two years, she deserves the full resources of the Tulalip Tribal Police and the FBI, as do all our missing relatives. The movement to end violence against Native women requires action and cooperation between our tribal and federal law enforcement agencies and our community is owed proof that these agencies serve the interests of Native women like Mary Johnson-Davis.
“It's been 2 years now since our sister Mary was reported missing. We have no answers. Our family is hurting. It's time we get answers”
The sisters Blouin and Davis are bringing their call to action to an event hosted by MMIWP Families and held Sunday, December 11, 2022, from 10:45am-4:00pm at Daybreak Star Indian Cultural Center in Seattle, Washington. The event will feature words from both Nona Blouin and Gerry Davis, organizer Roxanne White, Tulalip Tribal Chairperson Teri Gobin, as well as legal counsel for the family Gabe Galanda of the firm Galanda Broadman. The event will also feature performances by the West Shore Canoe Family. Traditional, jingle, and grass dancers are welcomed, a meal will be served, and guests are asked to wear red, bring their drums and rattles.
Join Nona and Gerry in demanding law enforcement take renewed action in the search for their sister Mary Johnson-Davis, this Sunday, December 11th at Daybreak Star Indian Cultural Center.
