And just in case you don't know the Attorney General of the United States, Jeff Sessions, praised this prosecutor who is Acting US Attorney in Vegas after the Obama one was removed for 'standing up and defending the office and the principles of the law' in the case OMG.
Steven Myhre would not let the defendants use the First and Second Amendments in their defense, had defendant Eric Parker removed from the stand as he testified in his own defense right in front of a shocked jury and even wanted the defense lawyers closing arguments submitted to the judge for review before they could be made.
The list goes on and on regarding Myhre......
Cases like this confuse me because you have the federal government losing it’s shit over citizens making a claim on federal lands, but you have extra-national entities that cities are giving defacto property and citizen’s rights too and they look the other way....
WHAT THE HELL!
If you want to “enforce the rule of law” start with the extra-national people FIRST and then once that is done re-visit the cases like the bundy’s but not BEFORE
I thought it was two hung juries and you are free. Are these charges that weren’t prosecuted the first time?
“Steven Myhre would not let the defendants use the First and Second Amendments in their defense”
That’s a slap in the face to every concept of justice and of American tradition.
A prosecutor or a judge deciding what arguments you may not use in defending yourself.
JURY NULLIFICATION!!!!
Trump please issue PARDONS.
This legal vendetta to support Obama DOJ abuses is NOT MAGA!
Never give up. Hope they do same with Antifa.
So much for Trump being the law and order candidate.
Gub mint stupidity?
Gub mint harassment?
I knew that Fedzilla would not stand down.
Fedzilla hates to lose.
They have unlimited funds and will keep going until they destroy Parker and Drexler one way or another.
Sessions is a zealot without the good sense given to a pissant.
> conditions for their release
They were not convicted.
This business of repeatedly trying people has got to stop. All persons begin from a point of innocence, they are tried, and unless found guilty that’s got to be the end of it. The criteria is that they be found guilty, not they they be found “not guilty” - they were not guilty when they entered the court. People do not have to prove their innocence in order to remain free, the jury must find them guilty. The prosecutor failed to convince the jury, so now they moving not to double jeopardy but triple jeopardy. That’s not justice. I don’t care what the bar says.
i belive DJT will put an end to this abusive prosecution
Steven Myhre is a colossal ahole who has no damn business being a U.S. attorney, acting or otherwise.
To keep Cliven, Ammon and Ryan Bundy in prison for a year and a half without a conviction is outrageous.
And Sessions....don’t even get me started on that useless tool.
So now we’re going to have another Kangaroo court convene?
Instead of throwing around insults, read and address my comment 14. Try defending your position. Explain why you think it’s is ok to kill our law enforcement officers? Explain how this is conservative or Republican? Explain how this is American values? Explain how and if any different than other armed thieves, poachers, or insurrectionists. They were an armed gang.
The feds have unlimited funds, the deepest of pockets, so the US attorneys couldn’t give a rat’s behind about dumping more and more taxpayer dough in order to fund their progressive big government jihad against the patriotic small fry. There’s no end to their leftist prosecutorial insanity.
Good thing that Jeff Sessions is AG and that he’ll put an end to this nonsense. /s
One way to stop this crap in the future...get the gubbmint out of the real estate business. What is the Constitutional authority for FedGov to be the largest landholder in the country?
Thanks for keeping up with this. I visit FR just for this reason.
Jeff Sessions needs to step in here. Being tried twice is enough. By taking this to trial a third time the government is saying they have no respect for the justice system.
Out of control Feds yet again, with Establishment Jeff praising the federal prosecutors. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
If it’s another hung jury, can they re-trial?
