When they opened that casino, it meant huge money for every menber of the tribe, men, women and children. One only needed to prove they were members by blood. People came out of the woodwork claiming to be Mohegan Indians. Same thing with the Foxwoods Casino and the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe.

Apparently the DNA tests performed to prove tribal blood lines proved some other embarrassing things about paternity issues, etc. I guess that would be what they mean by "unintended consequences."
