When LaVoy Finicum was shot on Jan. 26th the FBI fired the first live rounds as LaVoy's truck went into the snow and LaVoy emerged. These shots and LaVoy's reaction I believe led to the Oregon State Police troopers shooting at LaVoy and his death.
The FBI killed LaVoy and these agents deserve more than perjury charges for lying and covering up their gunshots.
We shall see what this grand jury thing is all about as we move on.
The federal prosecutors are using the grand jury to justify withholding evidence from defense lawyers ahead of the trial for the protestors at the refuge scheduled to begin September 7th.

We have the MOST corrupt government in our nations history.

Its a federal grand jury and we don’t know what kind of charges, if any, will come out of it. Lying and tampering with evidence seem obvious. All five agents denied shots being fired and the drone shows them searching the snow to remove the shell casings observed by Oregon law enforcement right after the shooting.

That will rankle some, but it is our own apathy and lack of drive and personal courage to face up to the PC movement (silent majority sitting with their thumbs up their butts) that has allowed things to go the way they have.
Trump may not be perfect but he is exactly what we need at this critical point in history.
GO TRUMP!!!

If they hadn't lied, there wouldn't be. Person identified at the traffic stop, known to be armed, flees from the stop, crashes at the road block and comes busting out of the truck. I am betting the FBI agent would get away with those two shots.
Now that he has made a false official statement, lied to investigators, picked up his brass, and gotten some other agents to lie with him, they are all toast. The best they can hope for is no criminal prosecution, but they can't be agents anymore because the record of this incident would be discoverable in any other case they are involved in.

So you are saying that OSP and FBI needs to hire a few more assassins because we just cant use these any more.

The shots by the OSP came way after the 2 shots shots by the FBI. Had Finicum not continued to spin around and dropped his hands into his jacket, he wouldn't have been shot.
The FBI HRT are guys whose tool box only has a hammer. Mr. Finicum was determined to make himself look like a nail.
Driving away from a law enforcement stop, jumping out of a vehicle after almost hitting the road block, rapid furtive movements, and multiple cries to "just shoot me" aren't ways to a peaceful outcome.

Everything proceeded just as the authorities wished. And they got just what they wanted.
They forced a man into a box to get the reaction that they knew would come. His reaction to their ambush is their justification in killing him.
The statements of the 2 OSP shooters that both shot LaVoy Finicum in the back were textbook. The FBI shots missed their targets but they just couldnt resist popping off a few rounds with everyone else. Then lying about it.

Nobody made him drive to Oregon. Nobody made him hole up on federal property, nobody made him not comply with the traffic stop, drive away from the traffic stop at high speed, jump out of his vehicle, or scream "just shoot me!"
If it was an ambush, why didn't anybody else die? All the other protestors gave up. They all swore to go out shooting, but somebody forgot to tell Lavoy they didn't really mean it.
