They get acquitted, and then the judge says they can’t get released pending a hold by Nevada - then the Marshalls assault the attorney demanding to see the paperwork that prevents the release of his acquitted clients.

The down side of this is that the US Marshals (a group I used to hold in high esteem) were obligated to show paperwork if they wanted an innocent man detained. For them to fail to do so was another step toward the "fundamentally transformed America" that Obama has spent his life creating. The up side is that it will alienate potential jurors in the next show trial. The odds of a second jury nullification just improved.

Whether or not these Americans are guilty of the technical charges they will be facing, the government should not have been engaged in stealing their land (or rustling their cattle!). As an extension of the "Fruit of the Poisonous Tree" doctrine, men should not be convicted of resisting lawless actions, even lawlessness from those claiming to act on behalf of the government.
