In an interesting twist to the end of the standoff here in Oregon.

Quote:
Cliven Bundy, the father of Ammon Bundy, was accused by the federal government Thursday of six crimes related to a 2014 protest at his Nevada ranch.

Bundy was arrested after he arrived at Portland International Airport Wednesday evening on his way to the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.

With these charges against him it looks like he'll be serving a bit of time behind bars.

Quote:
The elder Bundy faces federal charges related to a standoff at his ranch with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management in 2014, according to the Bundy web site. Bundy, who defied authorities in a dispute over federal land rights, owes $1 million in grazing fees and penalties.

He has been charged, among other counts, with weapons violations and one count of conspiracy to interfere with a federal officer, the U.S. Justice Department in Nevada said in a statement. If convicted, Bundy faces more than 40 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 per count.

Follow-up:

Judge dismisses charges against Cliven Bundy, orders him freed from prison

A federal judge on Monday dismissed the charges against Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, his two sons and a militia member for their role in a 2014 standoff with federal officers.

Judge Gloria Navarro dismissed the charges against the men “with prejudice,” meaning they can't be put on trial again, The Arizona Republic reported. She said the conduct of prosecutors in the case had been "outrageous" and violated due process rights.

Navarro also ordered Bundy be released from prison.

Navarro last month declared a mistrial in the criminal conspiracy case against Bundy and his sons, saying federal prosecutors had improperly withheld evidence that could have changed the outcome of the trial.
A new trial date had been set for next month, but Navarro ruled Monday that a new trial would provide the prosecution with an unfair advantage, according to The Arizona Republic.

The ruling comes after four ranch hands were found not guilty of conspiracy, assault of a federal officer and multiple weapons charges in the standoff, which was part of an effort to stop a government-sanctioned cattle roundup on federal land.

That means there's still a chance for that nutbar and his sons to go up in a roar of flames when they try to take on the feds in order to bring about Christ's second coming. That plan for setting off the Apocalypse worked so well in Waco, Texas, and Ruby Ridge, Idaho.
