The
ordeal of the Bundy family of Clark County, Nevada, against the
excessive force and bureaucratic overreach by Federal Government
agencies, has had a positive turn in recent weeks. Cliven Bundy,
patriarch of the family, his sons Ryan and Ammon, along with other
family members, were acquitted by a jury in 2015 of conspiracy and other
charges in connection with the occupation of an empty federal wildlife
refuge building in Oregon. Until recently, they have been held in
federal prison for nearly two years, awaiting trial in Nevada on similar
charges stemming from a federal assault on their ranch and surrounding
grazing lands by armed and militarized agents of various state and
federal agencies. Their alleged crimes? Their cattle were allegedly
trespassing on “public lands”.
After
their trial began in Las Vegas late last year, proof of government
crimes and corruption emerged during the proceedings to such an extent
that the judge declared a mistrial, and a few weeks later dismissed the
charges “with prejudice”, meaning they cannot be tried again.
Shortly after their release, Cliven Bundy made a statement outside the office of the Sheriff.
