July 26, 2023 – Residential homes, short-term rentals, and motels are fair game for unlicensed providers to house victims as long as Medicaid money is coming in, despite offering the bare minimum amount of health services. Or, none at all. Here’s what we discovered as tribal police led us to a Tempe hotel property.
“What you would normally see of a standard hotel that has vehicles parked there, there’s nothing all the way around,” said Harland Cleveland, special operations coordinator with Navajo Nation Police Department.
It doesn’t take long to realize things aren’t what they seem while sitting in a car with Navajo Nation Police across the street from this hotel property.
The property looks like a Ramada Inn on Scottsdale Road, not far from Arizona State.
“You do see a lot of foot traffic of Native Americans coming out or either they’ll go across to the QT for something to drink, and you’ll see them come back in,” Cleveland said.
