This a videotaped report by one of the men who was part of the group holding the area, and was driving one of the stopped cars.

Finally, some real news, not rumors.

The news source is a known government boot licker. The so-called eye witness is suspect, he was not arrested or something...

Others are saying the guy was trying to negotiate a surrender. I do not know but do know the news source lacks credibility and has shown far left bias many times before.

Sounds like suicide by cop.

They were each charged with conspiracy to interfere with a federal official, a felony.

I hadn't heard of this charge. It sounds like one that could be used if you don't answer those IRS questions fast enough to suit them. On the other hand, I suppose Hillary is safe enough even though it would seem to be applicable.

This ‘witness’ was, according to this account, at least a mile away from the shooting...he is a third party re-telling Cox’s story.

He doesn’t know anything.

And why wasn’t he arrested?

We should always be skeptical of media reports. The media has a well-documented history of not just manipulating the truth but outright lying.

Also, it seems to me that the "eyewitness" is mostly repeating what he says he was told by other people who were the actual witnesses.

He may very well be telling the truth. But we shouldn't assume it is the full and complete truth just because the media says so.

Okay, he “charged” the Feds. Was he armed when he did so?

"Real News" is defined as anything that absolves the Feds, right?

There are actually two witnesses.

You charge the police, you get shot. *shrug*

But still many questions. The eye witness by his own account must have been more than 200 yards away. Getting out of a car that is stuck in the snow and charging the cops? How fast could a charge be moving through snow deep enough get a truck stuck. How many cops were at the roadblock? Was the dead guy armed or pointing a weapon. Was shooting him really justified? Seems like you are ready to close the book on these law breaking anarchists based on the first account aligns with your predisposition to support the feds.

And the obfuscation begins...

A known questionable “source” that just happens to provide cover for the Feds...

While the gal who was actually in the car with LaVoy tells a completely different tale.

Unfortunately, the account of the shooting is literally hearsay.

The feds have been chomping at the bit to do some shooting. It’s what they do. Never mind that it’s other Americans that they’re shooting.

Go here and listen to the interview of a girl in the car:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3389222/posts

I doubt a 70+ year old would be ‘charging’. That’s the age I’ve heard given for Finicum, but I’ve not confirmed it.

In any case, the girl says he was out of the car walking toward them with his hands in the air.

Authorities effed up another one. Covering up what really happened. The feds have been itching to kill someone involved in the mess.
