Oregon Judge Sends 6 Refuge Occupiers To Nevada For Bunkerville Charges

Six defendants in the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge occupation are headed to Nevada on April 13.

On Tuesday, District Judge Anna Brown ordered U.S. Marshals to take the men to Nevada to be arraigned on charges stemming from the 2014 standoff over Cliven Bundy's cattle. She also ordered law enforcement return the men to Oregon within 10 days.

"In effect, we would be loaning them back to Nevada for their initial appearance," Judge Brown said at a hearing in Portland.

The hearing provided a glimpse of how Brown and federal prosecutors in two states intend to move forward with what the judge called "two complicated cases in two districts involving many of the same defendants" ...

Shay's rebellion, the whiskey rebellion, Fort Sumter, etc

I advocated overthrowing the government in the early 70s, but I never forgot which side had the army and the legitamacy.

that's cool that they are working together on this.

It's about time to see some Justice for the Bundy family and it's tag-a-longs.

of the government, they still haven't figured out that since they committed crimes in two states.

If one state doesn't get them in the jail system, that another state will, and then they have the big old federal system to play around in, hey----------------three strikes and your out


They are THUGS criminal gun carrying THUGS-----------------threatening people and destroying Indigenous Peoples heritage-------------

I want to see them in orange and white stripe jumpsuits with big old letters on the back saying DOC, with shackles on, I want to see them get on a Federal Plane, frog stepping onto that plane

Lisa Hay, the federal public defender for Oregon and Ryan Payne's attorney in the Malheur case, said allowing the case in Nevada to proceed would interfere with the defendants' right to a speedy trial in Oregon and suggested that prosecutors intended to slow the case down.

"They would like a year for this to go to trial," Hay said.

Ryan Bundy, who is representing himself, concurred with those arguments.


Hmm. Maybe your clients should not have broken the law in two different states?

On FR they were joining in the squawking. They're all finding their inner Pat Leahys in their regard for due process and rights of criminal defendants.
