The Enemy in Front of Me
The meeting that Never happened in John Day, Oregon on January 28, 2017 was quite enlightening to say the least. I was lucky to be among the 4-500 people present, listening to Trent Loos, Master of Ceremonies, announcing the next speaker. I’m sitting in the third row below the podium where investigative reporter and radio show owner, Kate Dalley, would be speaking next. She announced that among us were federal agents dressed up like cowboys to blend in with the ranchers and others that had traveled from many states coming to support Jeanette Finicum, LaVoy Finicum’s wife. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ8TdkZIdV0
A real cowboy from Burns, Oregon, who had stood by LaVoy, Ammon and Ryan Bundy at Malheur approached a man in front of me during the mid program break, a professor, Peter Walker, from the University of Oregon. The cowboy is pointing over to a cordoned off area where Mrs. Carol Bundy is standing, and lets the professor know that he owes her an apology for an article that he had written for the University of Oregon. The cowboy also asked the professor why he would state so many untruths about LaVoy, Ammon and Ryan and wondered while reporting, why he didn’t ask where PETA was when the federal government was stampeding the Bundy’s cows with a helicopter and separating the newly born calves from their mothers? The cowboy also let the professor know that he didn’t appreciate how professors brainwash their students with propaganda. He explained how it only took three generations to fill the mind with propaganda and totally change one over from what is truth to what is not truth.
I went up to the cowboy to get his story. He told me to go to the University of Oregon website and look at Peter’s articles, especially his second one. What I found was a picture of a smiling man, very comfortable in shaking LaVoy’s hand but propagandizing LaVoy making the stand at Malheur into something that it wasn’t. Breeding fear and hate, even going so far as to say that the people in Burns are suffering from PTSD, if you can imagine. http://around.uoregon.edu/…/bundys-did-damage-burns-well-re…
The picture in the article seemed so typical, Professor Walker shaking LaVoy’s hand with one while putting a proverbial knife in his back with the other. Propaganda filled articles like Peter Walker’s, profiling by FBI, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, Southern Poverty Law Center putting people on “lists” is how hate and discontent is spread. The federal government needs to only look in a mirror to see where the virus is that they so willfully accuse Constitutionalists of spreading.
Having the honor to rub shoulders with the Finicum’s and Bundy’s doesn’t take long for one to see the propaganda that is spread certainly isn’t from the People but from the enemy in front of me choosing to be a mouthpiece for the federal government’s propaganda. It would behoove people to know definitions:
* indoctrinate - to instruct in doctrines, beliefs, principles, or theories (can be good or bad)
*doctrine - something taught as beliefs, usually associated with religion or political parties
* propaganda - est. by Pope Gregory XV; a committee of cardinals in charge of propagating the faith of foreign missions
- any systematic, widespread indoctrination
- the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person
- ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause
fact - a thing that has happened or is true
opinion - a belief not based on certainty or knowledge but on what seems true or probable

Bundy Supporters & Anti-Bundy Protestors Clash at Beginning of Trial in Las Vegas

Kieran Suckling, executive director of the Center for Biological Diversity, and environmental activist organization, leads Anti-Bundy protests in Las Vegas as the first Bunkerville trial begins.
By JENNY WILSON — Reposted from the Las Vegas Review-Journal
Constitutional issues took center stage Monday when the first trial in the case against rancher Cliven Bundy and his supporters opened with jury selection in Las Vegas.
The selection process at times resembled more of a political discussion than a courtroom proceeding, as lawyers grilled potential jurors about constitutional rights, marches and protests, federal authority, police conduct and news media. The extensive questioning provides defense attorneys and prosecutors the opportunity to identify people they do or do not want on the jury. Later this week, each side will be allowed to dismiss a limited number of jurors without showing cause.
Federal prosecutors have portrayed the six gunmen standing trial as militant, anti-government extremists who put authorities and the public in danger during an armed confrontation against law enforcement officers in 2014.
http://rangefire.us/wp-content/uploa...-2-300x201.jpg
The defendants contend they were patriots who exercised their constitutional rights to freely assemble and to bear arms during protests in Bunkerville over the seizure of Bundy’s cattle from federal lands. As a result, defense attorneys focused on ideological themes in questioning potential jurors.
Todd Engel, a defendant representing himself, asked the jury pool to imagine a group of gun enthusiasts who held a protest in front of a courthouse, each of them with a “pistol on hip, rifle on shoulder, yelling and screaming, ‘Give us our Second Amendment rights.’”
“If somebody went to a protest for Second Amendment rights … if nobody got hurt, would anyone have a problem?” Engel asked potential jurors.
No shots were fired during the armed standoff near Bundy’s ranch three years ago.
Engel prefaced some questions with his own commentary, and U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro reminded him several times he was not allowed to make arguments.
One defense attorney asked potential jurors if they felt scared or uneasy around guns. None said they did.
“If the women that marched right after the inauguration were carrying weapons, would that be considered a violent protest?” defense attorney Terrence Jackson asked the group, referring to the Women’s March on Washington that followed President Donald Trump’s inauguration.
The six people charged as gunmen traveled to Bunkerville upon learning of the protests online and later became entangled in the standoff against Bureau of Land Management authorities. The government’s evidence includes Facebook posts and blogs published by those involved in the case, and potential jurors were asked about their news consumption and social media habits, as well as whether they think the media are reliable.

FBI POSED AS A MOVIE COMAPANY - Now it could hurt their case.

FBI posed as journalists to get evidence on Bundys. Now it could hurt their case
Trial stemming from a 2014 standoff could be derailed by a ploy to pose as a ‘fake film company’ and an ethics scandal involving a BLM officer and Burning Man

FBI agents posed as journalists and tricked the Bundy ranching family and their supporters into giving on-camera interviews that prosecutors may use in upcoming trials, according to defense attorneys and court records.
The FBI’s “fake film production company” and “wide-reaching deceptive undercover operation”, as lawyers described it in a court filing, is one of multiple controversies that some say could derail the government’s prosecution of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, his four sons and a dozen of their followers. A recent Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ethics scandal involving tickets for the popular Burning Man festivalcould further hinder prosecutors in the high-profile trial, which began this week in Las Vegas federal court.
The case stems from the Bundy family’s infamous 2014 standoff with federal agents at their ranch in Bunkerville, Nevada. The 70-year-old patriarch became a hero to conservative cowboys in the west when he publicly refused to pay grazing fees to the federal government, arguing that the BLM has no right to regulate lands by his property.
When federal agents attempted to seize his cattle, hundreds of supporters, some heavily armed, flocked to the ranch to defend the family. The government eventually retreated and only filed conspiracy, firearms and assault charges two years later – after his sons were involved in a similar standoff in Oregon.
In January 2016, Ammon and Ryan Bundy spearheaded a takeover of the Malheur national wildlife refuge to protest the government’s treatment of Oregon ranchers, leading to federal conspiracy charges against more than two-dozen participants. In a surprise verdict in October, a jury found the Bundy brothers and their supporters not guilty, which some say could foreshadow the government’s failure in Nevada.
A total of 17 men are preparing for trial in Las Vegas over their roles in the Bunkerville case, including Cliven, Ammon and Ryan and their brothers Mel and Davey. The Bundys have long argued that they were engaged in peaceful protests against federal overreach while prosecutors and environmental groups have alleged that the men executed a coordinated, violent attack on agents and have damaged public lands with their defiance of regulations.

Photograph: Rob Kerr/AFP/Getty ImagesThe underlying conspiracy allegations aside, some actions of individual FBI and BLM officers could cause problems for the government’s case.
Attorneys for Cliven and defendant Gregory Burleson have alleged that the FBI created a bogus film company called Longbow Productions, tricking many defendants into making “boastful, false and potentially incriminating statements” in interviews. Masquerading as journalists, agents paid defendants for their testimony, and in Burleson’s case, gave him alcohol with the intent of extracting incriminating admissions, according to defense attorneys.
In one filing, prosecutors admitted that FBI agents “acting in an undercover capacity as independent documentary filmmakers” interviewed Burleson, though the full extent of the Longbow operation remains unclear.
“When the jury finds out this is a tactic they used, none of them will think it’s okay,” said Daniel Hill, Ammon’s lawyer, adding, “It shows the lows the government was willing to go to.”
In the Oregon militia trial, the role of paid FBI informants hurt the government’s case, according to one juror.
“The jury did not like hearing there were undercover agents,” said Lisa Bundy, Ammon’s wife. “They’re using yours and my tax dollars to hurt other Americans.”
Bret Whipple, Cliven’s attorney, said when the FBI poses as reporters, it has a chilling effect on free speech. “The government is going to an extreme when they claim to be the free press and are trying to manipulate you to say things.”
Press advocates argue it’s never appropriate for police to impersonate journalists given how it can damage the public’s trust in the media.
“If you think every reporter you meet could be an agent of law enforcement, it really has an immediate impact on any journalist coming to try and cover that story,” said Gregg Leslie, legal defense director of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press.
The US attorney’s office declined to comment.
In a separate matter, federal investigators recently announced ethical misconduct and violations by a BLM supervisory agent, who is accused of using his influence to obtain tickets and special passes to the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert. The agent, who officials did not name, also allegedly used BLM resources for his family’s benefit at Burning Man and intervened in hiring to benefit a friend.

Though the investigators did not name the agent, the Salt Lake Tribune and Reno-Gazette Journalidentified him as Dan Love, who held the position outlined in the government’s report during the period in the inquiry.
Love oversaw the BLM’s handling of the 2014 Bundy standoff, and given his role as a key witness, Bunkerville defense attorneys have saidthe misconduct case could unravel the prosecution.
“He has a history of intimidation and bullying,” said Chris Rasmussen, attorney for defendant Pete Santilli, arguing that the agent heightened tensions at the standoff. “Instead of de-escalation, he tried to escalate the situation.”
Love did not respond to an inquiry. BLM spokesman Michael Richardson declined to identify the agent who was investigated, but said he is currently an employee, adding: “These types of allegations do not align with our mission or the professionalism and dedication of our 10,000 employees doing essential work for America’s public lands.”
The Buknerville trials will be happening in three phases this year, and the Bundy men are not included in the first round that began Monday.
Lisa Bundy said it was unfair the men have been forced to wait behind bars for more than a year for their trials, claiming that Cliven’s health has taken a toll.
“Jail is not for a 70-year-old man who has never been too far from his childhood ranch.”

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
Has tyranny become law?
https://bundyranchstandoff.info/cour...ndants-rights/
Court Sidesteps Defendant’s Rights
… will fully protect and conceal identify of FBI undercover employee
Chief Judge Gloria Navarro ruled in favor of the Government in their motion to place a protective order on the identity of an FBI undercover employee (UCE). Defendants argued that this constitutes a violation of Brady / Giglio material rights (see explanation here). Navarro found that the identity protection for the UCE outweighs the rights of defendants. Effectively, the court sidesteps defendant’s rights.
Extraordinary measure?
Not only is the identity of the UCE under general protective order, it is also not available to defendants or their counsel. The UCE will testify under the pseudonym “Chris Johnson”. Defendants will not be able to ask any questions that might personally identify the UCE. Because of this, defense counsel cannot investigate the UCE to determine if he has:
- prior criminal history
- history of substance abuse
- workplace ethics violations
- social media or other communications that might reveal prejudice
OK for the Government… not any one else.
The Government relied heavily on social media and other means of communication. Memorandums in support of pretrial detention were rife with quotations and screenshots from FaceBook, YouTube, and Email accounts. The Government’s exhibit list shows over 1/3 of the evidence to have come from social media and e-mail. Consequently, a large portion of the case against the defendants will come from things said both publicly and privately.
The Government can pursue an effective life sentence and have a substantial amount of evidence come from the medium of the internet, but a key witness is apparently not subject to the same scrutiny. Defendants have a well-established right to look for impeachable evidence (evidence that might harm credibility) against Government witnesses. Had it not been for a leak by the Salt Lake Tribune, the misdeeds of the Bundy Ranch Tyrant would probably remain unknown. It is therefore imperative for the Government to supply defendants with the information they need to investigate witnesses.
Court Sidesteps Defendant’s Rights
When the Court moves to allow such a broad restriction on the identity of a witness, a scenario where the court sidesteps defendant’s rights plays out in full. Consequently, judiciary rulings that strip the rights of defendants to look for impeachable evidence on a Government witness injures, if not cripples, due process.
The reasons for order aren’t congruent with reality. First, online threats occurred in the immediate wake of the Bundy Ranch incident; the argument that the UCE is in danger is stale at best. Second, while the UCE’s other unrelated investigations are materially irrelevant, prior conduct during past investigations could yield impeachable evidence. Finally, the UCE’s date of birth is materially irrelevant to the case, but very much necessary to conduct an investigation.
One has to wonder: since it is OK for the Government to leave no stone unturned, why is the same privilege not extended to defendants. Has tyranny become law?

Free Range Report - Custer Museum Director details suicides, human cost of BLM raids.
http://freerangereport.com/index.php.../#comment-3174
FREE RANGE REPORT IS MISTAKENLY SUPPORTING JASON CHAFFETZ H.R.-622 another feelgood piece of legislation.
H. R. - 622 will effectivley make the locally elected county sheriff a contract policemen for the BLM/USFS.
It will force him to enforce FEDERAL LAW on public lands where Congress lacks constitutional authority to legislate.
H. R. - 622 will do this by providing federal block grants to prop up the county sheriff. The sheriff will be bound by the contract attached to the grant. State sovereignty goes out the window.
Of course it already has, Congress figured out how to entice the states into passing laws Congress wanted passed but couldn't because the constitution wouldn't allow by using grants, federal highway funds, and as time passed grants for sewer and water projects, bullet proof vests etc. and etc.. Now, in total disregard for the constitution they want to force federal laws into the states. In Nevada that is 87% of the land area.
This is exactly opposite what Ammon Bundy was protesting and Lavoy Finicum gave his life for.
PRESS RELEASE: Custer Museum Director details suicides, human cost of BLM raids
February 8, 2017 editor Leave a comment
In 2005, and again in 2008, Chris Kortlander, Founding Director of the Custer Battlefield Museum in Garryowen, MT, was the victim of similar Nazi Gestapo-like raids by overzealous, unprofessional Bureau of Land Management law enforcement agents intent on proving that Kortlander was involved in the illegal trafficking of artifacts. Following the 2005 raid, no proof of wrongdoing was found and no charges were filed. The 2008 raid resulted in the same outcome, but the damage had been done. Kortlander’s Historical Rarities collectibles business was left in shambles and his good reputation as an upstanding member of the antiquities field was tarnished.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CONTACT:
Christopher Kortlander
February 7, 2017
Founding Director
Custer Battlefield Museum
BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT THREATS, INTIMIDATION, AND BULLYING CONTINUE TO CLAIM INNOCENT LIVES
GARRYOWEN, MT Following a fourth suicide subsequent to bullying and harassment by Bureau of Land Management law enforcement agents, Christopher Kortlander, the Founding Director of the Custer Battlefield Museum in Garryowen, MT, is speaking out. Kortlander, himself the victim of two unwarranted Bureau of Land Management raids, says the intimidation and threats by teams of heavily-armed BLM law enforcement agents must end.
“The Bureau of Land Management has a long track record of aggressive harassment, unwarranted raids, and heartbreaking suicides to answer for,” said Kortlander. “Their questionable assertions of criminal behavior and unchecked aggression must be exposed and those involved must be investigated.”
Representative Jason Chaffetz, a Republican from Utah, said, “We need to be more Andy Griffith and less Rambo.” In a January 24th press release, he announced his plan to do just that. Chaffetz reintroduced the Local Enforcement for Local Lands Act, or H.R. 622, which will strip the Bureau of Land Management and the US Forest Service of their law enforcement authority, with the aim of bringing these agencies into line. “It’s time to get rid of the BLM and US Forest Service police,” Chaffetz says, “If there is a problem, your local sheriff is the first and best line of defense. By restoring local control in law enforcement, we enable federal agencies and county sheriffs to each focus on their respective core missions.”
Kortlander recounts, “In 2014, I was asked by an elected official to submit written testimony to the House of Representatives subcommittee that investigates this type of harassment and intimidation by federal law enforcement, but nothing has come of it. It’s time to get the public involved to end this kind of harassment of private, law-abiding citizens.”(See Congressional Hearing- Threats, Intimidation and Bullying by Federal Land Managing Agencies – The attached 56-page document, submitted at this congressional hearing on July 24, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. in Room 1324 of the Longworth House Office Building, is very important because it reveals WHY the Custer Battlefield Museum Raids, the Four Corners Raids, and the Gibson Guitar Raids occurred.)
Federal Raids Lead to Suicides
On June 9, 2009, 17 teams of fully-armed Bureau of Land Management agents raided the southeastern Utah homes of two dozen casual Indian artifact hobbyist-collectors. When the over-the-top militaristic raids concluded, 24 people were charged with felonies and misdemeanors under the 1979 Archaeological Resource Protection Act (ARPA) which prohibits removing archaeological resources, including Native American artifacts from tribal or federal lands.
The day after the excessive raids, following hours of aggressive interrogation by Bureau of Land Management agents spearheaded by Dan Love, Dr. James D. Redd – one of those charged under the ARPA law – committed suicide. A week later, Steven Shrader, another man charged in connection with the Four Corners raids, killed himself. Eight months later, Ted Gardiner, the man the Bureau of Land Management agents had paid $244,000 to supply them with (unverified) information about Indian artifact hobbyist-collectors, also killed himself.
The Most Recent BLM-Related Suicide
On December 1, 2016, after months of harassment and bullying by federal law enforcement, half a dozen Bureau of Land Management and US Forest Service agents, accompanied by a federal Social Security investigator, raided the Cody, Wyoming home of Robert Weaver, a rock hound who collected fossils. Weaver underwent eight long hours of brutal interrogation and bullying by BLM agents and the Social Security investigator; following his release (no charges were ever filed) federal agents continued to interrogate, harass, and intimidate Weaver for an entire month. On December 31, 2016, Robert Weaver took his own life, tragically becoming the fourth suicide in connection with an over-the-top Bureau of Land Management raid.
Raids at Garryowen
In 2005, and again in 2008, Chris Kortlander, Founding Director of the Custer Battlefield Museum in Garryowen, MT, was the victim of similar Nazi Gestapo-like raids by overzealous, unprofessional Bureau of Land Management law enforcement agents intent on proving that Kortlander was involved in the illegal trafficking of artifacts. Following the 2005 raid, no proof of wrongdoing was found and no charges were filed. The 2008 raid resulted in the same outcome, but the damage had been done. Kortlander’s Historical Rarities collectibles business was left in shambles and his good reputation as an upstanding member of the antiquities field was tarnished. The fight to restore his life and livelihood has left Kortlander exhausted, frustrated, and disheartened.
The recent news of yet another suicide of someone connected to raids led by the Bureau of Land Management has steeled his resolve to end this federal law enforcement nightmare. “I’m not willing to let another day go by without bringing the Bureau of Land Management’s outrageous actions and unprofessional behavior to the attention of the American people, the Department of the Interior’s office of the Inspector General, and the Department of Justice,” insisted Kortlander. “The law enforcement unit of the Bureau of Land Management may be able to live with being connected to the suicides of law-abiding citizens, but I cannot, and neither should any other American.”
“The Bureau of Land Management and other Department of the Interior law enforcement agencies have developed a ‘Rambo’ type attitude and they’ve been running amok, threatening and raiding innocent private citizens and respected businesses like Gibson Guitars and Custer Battlefield Museum with impunity. No one is stopping them and our elected officials cannot sit on the sidelines any longer.”
A single suicide in connection to a Bureau of Land Management raid should alone be enough to warrant an investigation into the especially aggressive tactics used by the BLM. The aforementioned federal agency’s law enforcement division is now linked to foursuicides, all of which could have possibly been prevented had it not been for the threats, intimidation, and bullying at the hands of the Department of the Interior law enforcement agents.
Kortlander is working on a book that documents his personal experience with the abuse and aggression at the hands of the Bureau of Land Management’s law enforcement division; the projected release date is late 2017. Furthermore, Kortlander has contacted each member of Montana’s congressional delegation asking them to rein in the terrorist tactics of the Bureau of Land Management. He has also contacted Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), who reintroduced his bill in Congress on January 24, 2017.
We the People of the United States must contact our Congressional delegation (find your representative here) and urge them to cosponsor Representative Chaffetz’s bill, H.R. 622, to demilitarize the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service (read more about this bill here).

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
Government benefits most from last minute pretrial orders
https://bundyranchstandoff.info/gove...etrial-orders/
Government Benefits From Most Last Minute Pretrial Orders
Defendants will be able to impeach SAC Dan Love…
A slew of rulings hit the docket ahead of Thursday’s opening arguments. Chief Judge Gloria Navarro ruled on motions from everything to exclude evidence, to compel information, to dismissal of the entire case. For the most part, last minute pretrial orders fell in favor of the Government. However, one key motion will benefit defendants .
SAC Daniel P. Love’s record impeachable…
Should the Government call The Bundy Ranch Tyrant to the stand, the ethics violation report will have to be provided in its unredacted form. Further, defense attorneys will be able to use the report to impeach Love’s character as a witness. It is yet unknown how this will impact the case that the US Attorneys intend to build.
Trial continues…
Defendants argued for a fatal violation of due process under Giglio / Brady. Navarro argued that the failure of the Government to provide the ethics violations report was not a true violation of Brady. As such, she denied the motion to dismiss.
Bridge Photos Admissible
Defendants sought to preclude any photographs on them lying prone on the NB I-15 Bridge. The Government contends that defendants assaulted federal agents. Defendants point to the statutory definition of assault which requires a victim to perceive an overt act in order for an assault to have occurred. Given the Government’s consistent, outlandish narrative of what happened, defendants sought to preclude these photos from evidence. Navarro ruled that while defendant’s understanding of the statutory definition of assault is accurate, she believes that the photos may be relevant to others charges… if the Government can establish relevancy.
Facebook Evidence Admissible
Todd Engel motion to exclude statements made on Facebook not directly related to the crimes outlined in the indictment. The Government motioned to preclude any mention of Government misconduct or militarization, but nevertheless opposed Engel’s similar motion. Navarro ruled that statements made through Social Media are admissible.
Last Minute Pretrial Orders
With opening arguments now underway and decisions rendered on major pretrial motions, defendants will have the task of showing the jury that there exists reasonable doubt that the Government’s narrative is accurate. Most decisions seem to lean in favor of the Government, but a couple of critical decisions have weighed favorably toward the defense. Namely, defendants will be able to call into question the character of SAC Dan Love. Additionally, they will be able to argue the misconduct of federal agents, as well as their excessive militarization. As a result, they posses the ability to capitalize on the weakest points of the Government’s case.
This case will rise and fall on how much truth the jury hears. Consequently, the few rulings that did favor defendants are crucial to that outcome.

For centuries, the presumption has been in favor of the accused. The court has taken the presumption of innocence and the presumption of liberty (pre trial release) and reversed it, turned it on its head and is now requiring the accused to prove their innocence, to rebut the presumption stated by the government, ie, that Ryan must show why he is not a danger to the community and why he is not a flight risk.

Did Prosecutors Hide Daniel P. Love Investigation From Defense In Cliven Bundy Case?
petesantillishow 02/10/2017 News
http://thepetesantillishow.com/wp-co...corruption.jpg
GUERILLA MEDIA NETWORK REPORTS – PROVEN – STRONG – ADVOCACY – JOURNALISM
Today Defendants in the case of US vs Cliven Bundy are expressing concern
over just how much Nevada Prosecutors and State Attorney Daniel Bogden knew about the Inspector General’s Office investigation of misconduct against their star witness, Special Agent Daniel P. Love, who also orchestrated a military-style assault on the Bundy family and protestors at the Bundy Ranch in 2014.
Just last week the Nevada Prosecutor’s office filed a motion with the court begging Judge Gloria Navarro to suppress any testimony that may cause the jury to be sympathetic to the defendants in the case. They wanted that suppression to include evidence which might point to BLM agents present at Bundy ranch who are expected to testify during the trial. Judge Gloria Navarro has since ruled against the Prosecution’s motion to suppress testimony, but also refused a motion filed by the defense to dismiss the case based on the findings in the IG report which obviously calls into question the integrity of SAC Daniel P. Love. It is now up to Prosecutors as to whether or not they move forward with the case, and that is exactly why the defense is interested in knowing if Steven Myhre and Daniel Bogden purposefully withheld the findings of the report from their clients.
After this weeks release of the “I.G.” report concluding Special Agent Daniel P. Love was guilty of misconduct – including bullying a female co-worker, some feel it would not be out of line to at least question how much fore-knowledge of the investigation Daniel Bogden, (Nevada US Attorney) and Steven Myhre, (Nevada US Prosecutor) had prior to the release of the report.
It is alleged that evidence will prove Daniel P. Love was in direct contact with the U.S. Attorney’s Office during the 2014 protest and that it was U.S. Attorney Daniel Bogden who instructed Love to entrap protestors for future Prosecution by his office. Bogden reportedly told Love to not pull the pin on the gate himself – that he must allow protestors to do it if they had any hope of prosecuting later [statement paraphrased]
http://thepetesantillishow.com/wp-co...04-300x263.jpg
In 2006 Daniel Bogden was fired from the position of State Attorney during a nationwide purge of what the then Bush Administration called corrupt Government Attorneys. While there has never been any clear answer as to why Bogden was targeted – it is clear that he was given his job back after Bush left office and Senator Harry Reid asked President Barack Obama to reinstate him, which he promptly did.
Having questions about possible prosecutorial misconduct, GMN called the Inspector General’s Office and ask if anyone had informed Steven Myhre or Daniel Bogden of their investigation of Daniel P. Love or the findings prior to results being released to the public; The IGO refused to comment.
CLICK HERE TO SUPPORT PETE SANTILLI
Most defendants agree that while Cliven Bundy’s land rights and jurisdiction of the BLM is an important factor in this trial, the heart of The Bundy Ranch Protest happened over serious civil rights violations by a over militarized arm of the government under the command of BLM agent Daniel P. Love.
Defendant Todd Engel, who is defending himself in the trial said today in his opening statement to the Jury, his coming to Bunkerville had everything to do with how BLM Officers were treating the Bundy family. Court Observers say he brought several Jurors to tears as they sat transfixed on his testimony.
Pete Santilli, who focused his attention on the story of government over-reach while he was at the protest, says that his arrest and subsequent indictment is nothing more than selective prosecution of a journalist for shining a light on the misconduct of Dan Love and his operation. Santilli says they didn’t want anyone to know the truth about Dan Love, “He is a bully with a badge whose ego almost got a bunch of people killed,” he said
Dan love doesn’t have to like me and he certainly doesn’t have to like what I say about him — but to arrest me and call me a dangerous criminal for telling the truth about what I observed him doing at Bundy Ranch is the epitome of what outrageous government conduct means.
After reading the the “IG” report on this guy I was relieved that no-one else will have to suffer at his hands – but it is bitter-sweet; Where is the “IG” investigation on his misconduct at Bundy? Maybe it’s because misconduct doesn’t even come close to describing what happened there .. Maybe the government should ask themselves if Dan Love is really the good guy they want everyone to believe he is …
So how far would the government go to protect Mr. Love whom they depended on to get a guilty verdict? It is hard to say, but to pretend it couldn’t happen and not investigate the possibility would be a serious travesty of justice, according to the families of those facing life in prison because of Dan Loves statements to the Grand Jury.
A comprehensive study done by the Center for Public Integrity in 2003 found there are many opportunities for prosecutors to engage in misconduct that are nearly impossible to discover because most all prosecutorial practices that occur behind closed doors, such as charging and plea bargaining decisions and grand jury practices, are never revealed to the public.
In 28 cases, involving 32 separate defendants that were studied, misconduct by prosecutors led to the conviction of innocent individuals who were later exonerated. Innocent men and women were convicted of serious charges, including murder, rape, and kidnapping and assault.

Burning Man Torches Agent Daniel P. Love - aids the Bundys

BURNING MAN TORCHES BLM AGENT DANIEL P. LOVE, AIDS THE BUNDYS
Brad Steffey
02/11/2017
Las Vegas Nevada
In an unlikely twist in the Bundy Standoff saga, the Burners from Blackrock are coming to the aid of Cliven Bundy and his three Sons all of which are incarcerated and awaiting trial of a witches brew of charges by the Federal Bureau of Land Management BLM.
What's most interesting about this alliance is the majority of the Burning Man organizers and many "Burners" (Those in attendance) are from the Nations most dense hotbed of Liberals, San Francisco Ca. and the same location as the 9th Circuit Court of appeals where some remnants of this conflict are likely to be heard at some point. San Francisco is the home of the Burning Man group and not typically on the side of the Conservative agenda.
But the actions of the BLM and Agent Daniel P. Love have been anything nut loving and have become so egregious against even the far left liberal organization at Burning Man that they had to file numerous complaints against the agent in charge.
It turns out that Agent Love went on another power binge at the Black Rock facility in 2015, demanding air conditioning, showers, flushing toilets, and things like 24 hour access to ice cream.
I can't fault a guy for wanting these items, especially 24 hour access to ice cream, hell I want that, but in a remote desert wasteland at an event designed to marry man and wilderness in harmony, at first glance it seems a bit lavish but still, these are employees working in the harsh environment and needing to stay alert and active right?
well I guess until the bill comes in and the taxpayer is footing a ONE MILLION DOLLAR price tag for this lavish pad amidst those sleeping in the open, being one with the dust and heat and wind.
Ok so really folks, these are ENVIRONMENTAL Police. They should be able to deal with the environment wouldn't you say? Instead this agent is and has been the poster child of Government opulence, oppression, aggression, and the one word that makes folks from San Francisco shudder with disgust TYRANNY.
Don't get me wrong, I know many Democrats and some from San Fran and not all, in fact most are rationally minded, people with a variant on my way of seeing the political spectrum. We find that all in all, we want the same things, it's just a matter of different strategy in how we get there.
But there has been emerging a different category of far left, socialist, radical, progressive liberals that are small in number but bigger than the Burning Man Himself in voice.
Many are these who are calling out agent Daniel P. Love and citing a multitude of egregious infractions including treating a small group of civilians which are friends of his to unavailable tickets to the event, special motorcades for them, assigned agents to look after them and entry into the coveted "inner circle" of strange and bizarre events where only the strangest and most bizarre with certain special connections are allowed and undoubtedly laden with bountiful weirdness enhancing illegal chemicals... if you like, get my dusty drift man.
So here's the balancing universe in hard action in Nevada. The massive number of complaints filed by Burning man organizers, attendees and other BLM employees and their amazing ability to speak loudly enough to be heard by people who can't hear the normal forgotten mans voice like Cliven Bundy, have finally broken the iron veil of secrecy perpetuated by big brother and cracked open a long and deviant list of unconscionable actions by one agent, but one who seemed to collect awards along the way for his transgressions.
Dating back over a decade, his trail is littered with controversy and destruction leaving dead bodies in his wake and unbelievable carnage. He seemed to have a special appetite for un teathered power and found a method of exacting such atrocities that when people made mention of it, it was simply just too unbelievable and went largely unnoticed. http://graphics.latimes.com/utah-sting/
“I mean like there’s this federal agent guy and he goes by Love, he rolls into this small town in Utah, hires drug addicts and pays them like ten thousand dollars per month to prey on this really nice doctor who’s like the town saint until the Doctor is destroyed and dead, the drug addicts are dead, the quiet town and good doctors family are in ruins, and this agent Ironically named “LOVE” rides off into the sunset to find others to torment."
Enter Cliven Bundy
Agent Love’s thirst for violence and destruction take him to the even smaller burg of Bunkerville, Nevada in Clark County where Cliven Bundy and his Family have been Ranching for over 100 years.
Senator Harry Reid is another such smooth and deviant character who knows all to well how to leverage, destroy and profit from others misery.
‘Ol Harry has some property of his own in Clark County which was obtained by some very peculiar means. It just so happens there are quite a few Ranchers who are earning a livelihood on property adjacent to his bounty of ground.
A plan is contrived to work a deal with the Chinese to install an enormous solar farm on dirty Harry’s property but he needs more ground. So he calls his Children who are all attorneys of course, educated on the tax dollars of people like Cliven Bundy, and conjures up the ‘ol threatened species trick. It seems these robust reptiles who’s life span is roughly equivalent to humans are the perfect antidote to Cattle Ranchers for the Reid team. Despite the fact that the tortoise is largely sub terraine up to 80 % of it’s existence, Reid and his league of legal scholars finds a way to have them deemed “threatened”
People like Cliven Bundy don’t have the time or resources to fight the goliath army of assailants that Reid brings forth so many Ranchers yield to the pressure and simply sell out to the baron. It is so successful in fact that ALL the Ranchers in the area fall, one by one until there are no Ranchers left in Clark County… except one.
Cliven Bundy is as kind as any man you’d ever meet but as hard as the terraine he’s toiled in his entire life. You simply can’t survive as a Rancher or a Farmer or both as Cliven is if you don’t have a particularly strong constitution.
I watched an interview with him and Megan Kelly from FOX News where she lashed out at him and tried to undermine his integrity and failed to do anything but humiliate herself .In the entire interview, 70 year old Cliven who was filmed via live remote from his Ranch, was standing holding a calf in his arms explaining how the BLM had killed so many of his cattle and calves in their attempt at seizing his herd. A calf at birth is 65 -85 lbs and within a short while exceeds 100 lbs. Try holding over a 100 lbs in your arms while holding a 5 minute interview on live television if you doubt his constitution.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riLLUItFSgc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riLLUItFSgc
Cliven who is actually as well educated on constitutional law as he is Ranching made the point that the BLM was out of it’s jurisdiction in trying to impose and reduce grazing fees and rights. So being on solid legal ground, he denied the “order” by BLM to stop grazing. He instead diverted payment from the BLM to Clark County where according to constitutional law it is intended to be managed.
Harry Reid and crew were in a lather and seething over the fact that he had out maneuvered them. He had destroyed over 50 other Ranchers with relative ease he wasn’t about to let one lonely cowpoke thwart his plan of riches.
‘Ol Harry decided it was time to stop playing nice and bring out the big guns, So who else to deploy but the swift moving, ruthless natured Agent Daniel P. Love.
The ensuing battle was made for television and swept the Nations interest as the much of conflict played out live. What didn’t make the story line however was the brutal confrontation between mature citizens and BLM enforcement personnel under command of Agent Love.
BLM tried to contain all the people who poured in to show support for Cliven in a “protest zone” As you might imagine, the people from Clark County who were there to help a fellow neighbor are accustomed to building fences, not being contained by them.
Bravado and testosterone fueled agent Daniel P. Love deployed attack dogs, Tasers and muscle bound enforcers in tach gear on the crowd, tasing Ammon Bundy Clivens son three times and sicking German shepards on him and others.
Defending himself, he managed to somehow rip out 3 separate taser devices and fend off an attack dog with his boot at the same time.
Another relative of his apparently a 55 year old female was brutally slammed to the ground by agents causing considerable long lasting injury. Most know the story, BLM agents stormed the ravine and drew down assault rifles on the townspeople who in turn returned the favor in a defensive stance.
http://youtu.be/bD61YFxUga4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD61YFxUga4
Agent Love didn’t love this outcome and the bully did what bullies always do when confronted with resistance, he backed off and went home crying.
Harry Reid in an unbelievable interview was seething and made clear revenge was in the works and that these “domestic terrorists” would meet there demise.
So here we are three years later and Reids plot to exact revenge lured the Bundys to Oregon to help defend another Family Ranch under assault, Dwight and Susan Hammond and their son Steven.
That’s another story, but all of the (Bundy boys and many others)were arrested and held without bail for over a year in Oregon on charges brought by the same agency and the FBI.
In a remarkable trial which was heavily influenced by a Federal Judge Anna Brown working for the same agency as the prosecution, the Bundys and all the others except those who took plea bargains were acquitted of all charges.
As if from a movie script, Ammons attorney argued for his release since he was exonerated in any wrong doing by a jury of his peers. Instead of complying with the law and releasing Ammon and Ryan Bundy, they tased his attorney in the court room, censored him and detained the Bundys for trial in Nevada.
So here we are, trial time in Las Vegas Nevada, the first round of hearings to beginning and as though sent from the heavens above complete with angels singing lyrics from the liberal vocalist Alanis Morisette “Isn’t it Ironic” the OIG (Office of Inspector General) is ordered to release the the BLM files on Agent Daniel p. Love to the defendants (Cliven Bundy and his four sons and 13 other defendants).
The Irony swells when most of the damming evidence against Love comes from the Burning Man crew in San Francisco and the employees of BLM who were threatened by him if they talked.
It’s really hard to brand this anything but good vs evil and compelling evidence that the hand of God is most hard at work when we are at our lowest and wonder why he’s so far away.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
All I know is we do not have all the full disgusting details of Love's behavior over the years. The reason he apparently wields so much power to do this law breaking behaviors is that he probably is firmly within the bribery / extortion / blackmail grid that has become federal "officers" and bureaucrats.
Burning Man is a pagan Satanic homosexual event and we could probably file this in the PizzaGate thread as well.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
I have to agree with you. We don't have enough information. The IG report will probably be sufficent to impeach him as a credible witness.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
No Legal Access for Defendants
https://bundyranchstandoff.info/lega...access-denied/
Legal Counsel Access Denied
Attorneys cannot meet with defendants as a group…
https://bundyranchstandoff.info/wp-c...ed-300x150.jpgMagistrate Judge Peggy A. Leen denied Eric Parker’s motion (ECF No. 1497) to facilitate open air group meetings between defendants and their legal counsel. Citing lack of communication with the US Marshals Service, Leen determined that the request was not specific enough for the Court to be able to assess whether or not the request is reasonable. Absent a special request, the facilities at Henderson Detention Center do not provide for an environment where multiple attorneys can meet with multiple defendants. Specifically, the meeting rooms are small and defendants and counsel can only communicate through a glass wall. Subsequently, showing digital evidence (of which most in this case is) becomes problematic.
Assessing reasonableness…
One has to wonder if the Court isn’t putting the horse before the cart. First six defendants face potential life sentences; there is little wiggle room for critical analysis of whether or not it is reasonable for them to meet with their attorneys. Second, the case is complex. that designation carries huge implications. The docket, as of today, has nearly 1600 entries (unusual if not extraordinary). Additionally, with the “complex” designation the right to a speedy trial vaporizes. The Government plans to call 60 or more witnesses. Finally, the case is in a constant state of uncertainty. For example, just days before jury selection, the Salt Lake Tribune ran a story about ethics violations on the part of The Bundy Ranch Tyrant. Consequent, it is paramount that the six defendants in the Tier 3 Bundy Ranch trial have access to their legal counsel as a group.
Legal Counsel Access Denied
The Court’s position is absurd to the extent that defendants must jump through procedural hoops to meet with counsel. The Court could assess whether or not the request is unreasonable and then make a subsequent determination. Instead, the prudent pursuit of justice take a back seat to the Court’s elevated opinion of self.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
This entire Bundy Ranch mess is completely illegal from the armed consfication and killing the cattle to prosecuting innocent Americans for coming to the aid of the family when they were so viciously attacked by a rogue agency lacking any authority or jurisdiction. Now the government insists on spending hundereds of thousands of taxpayer dollars on prosecuting innocent men to make examples of them when all the evidence is in Bundy's and the defendants favor. All this in an attempt to make examples of people exerting their rights. You would think after getting their ass handed to them in the Oregon trial they would back off in Nevada where the governemnt has no evidence backing up their false charges.
They are determined to get their pound of flesh by keeping the Bundy family in jail and punishing them for something they haven't done as long as possible even though they know the chances of a conviction are near zero. The wrong people are in jail.
The destruction of Bundy's piplines and water troughs and improvements to the springs which he has water rights to and is his private property recognized by the state of Nevada is a criminal offense. The running down his cows with helicopters and separating the calves from the mothers, shooting bulls, burying the evidence are all criminal offences. Why has nobody been charged for these crimes?
Harry Reid and his Las Vegas mafia have been calling the shots.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
Well said, Monty.
We the people are fighting this same battle on many fronts and in thousands of places all over the USA. What happens in the Bundy case greatly impacts our efforts on these "smaller" battles. The principle involved is what rules throughout - The United States Constitution and the rule of law.

It's amazing how much has been scrubbed- The BLM agent at the beginning was speaking to Ryan Bundy by phone. If you could hear the entire recording, you'd hear the BLM agent telling Ryan that "It's going to be Waco."

Attorneys suggest BLM agent accused of misconduct could be central to Bundy case
BLM agent at Burning Man violated federal ethics rules, report finds
By JENNY WILSON
LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL
Defiant cattle rancher Cliven Bundy tossed court orders out the window of his truck and tried to pay grazing fees to Clark County instead of the federal government, a Justice Department lawyer testified Monday as prosecutors began to establish the chain of events that led to an armed standoff in Bunkerville in 2014.
Justice Department lawyer Terry Petrie took the witness stand Monday in the federal trial of six people accused of conspiring with Bundy to block the Bureau of Land Management from impounding the rancher’s cattle. The impoundment operation in 2014 followed a decadeslong dispute over grazing fees and permits.
Under direct examination by the government, Petrie read from court documents dating back to the early ‘90s that detail Bundy’s various attempts to flout federal court orders regarding his livestock. The testimony provided jurors a snapshot of the lengthy legal saga that resulted in the politically charged, armed confrontation when authorities tried to round up the cattle.
The last grazing fees paid by Bundy to the BLM were for the period of December 1992 to February 1993, Petrie testified. In subsequent years, the federal government and Bundy went back and forth in court, with the rancher arguing that his cattle could graze in accordance with his “vested grazing rights.”
In response to one ruling that ordered him to remove his cattle from the Bunkerville Allotment, Bundy accused the BLM of harassing him, threw a court order out the window of his truck and drove away, Petrie testified. His son then picked up the order, tore it into pieces and threw it on the ground.
Petrie testified that the rancher mailed a check for nearly $2,000 to Clark County in 1995. The amount, if paid to the proper agency, would have covered one year of grazing fees. But Bundy, who previously has said that the county sheriff has jurisdiction over the federal lands, refused to pay the federal government. Clark County returned the check to Bundy, Petrie said.
The Justice Department lawyer had not finished his testimony when court broke for lunch recess Monday. Defense attorneys had argued that some of the court documents the witness quoted should not be allowed into evidence. They assert that their clients, none of whom is a Nevada resident, joined the Bunkerville protests for ideological reasons and had no interest in the core dispute over cattle grazing.
ETHICS ACCUSATIONS
Earlier in the day, a defense attorney representing one of the men on trial took aim at prosecutors with pointed accusations that a federal agent central to the case is the same person recently accused of misconduct in an investigative report released by the Office of Inspector General.
Defense attorney Todd Leventhal raised concerns about the unredacted investigative report recently turned over to him by the prosecution.
“The unredacted version is quite scary, your honor,” Leventhal said. The attorney said five or six other government witnesses were mentioned in the report, which he called “pretty far-reaching.”
Specifically, the report accuses an unnamed Bureau of Land Management agent of using his position to obtain sold-out Burning Man tickets. It also includes other allegations that, if allowed into evidence, could be used to boost defense arguments that government agents acted inappropriately toward what the defense team contends were peaceful protesters.
First Assistant U.S. Attorney Steven Myrhe described the report as “extrinsic and inadmissible.”
U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro said she would rule at a later time on whether defense attorneys can ask witnesses about information in the unredacted version of the report.
The targeted BLM agent was not identified by name in open court, but previous court filings indicate that defense attorneys suspect it is BLM Special Agent in Charge Dan Love. Myrhe lauded Love’s actions during the standoff in his opening statement to the jury.
Leventhal raised the issue before the government called its first witness: FBI Special Agent E.J. McEwen. McEwen, who is not mentioned in the Office of Inspector General report, testified about hours of aerial surveillance footage he captured on the day of the standoff.
Myrhe played more than 90 minutes of surveillance footage Monday morning that showed the protesters moving toward the area where BLM agents had been executing the court order to impound Bundy’s cattle.
Bundy is scheduled to stand trial later this year. The six men currently on trial are charged with threats, assault, extortion and other crimes resulting from the standoff.

As I was writing today’s previous article on the Bundy Ranch case and asking whether or not the government hid the Inspector General’s report that found a Bureau of Land Management agent, allegedly Daniel P. Love, guilty of misconduct, I referenced what the prosecution wanted to shield the court from seeing and hearing. So, I thought I would take the things they wanted to keep the court from seeing and hearing and expose them in this article.
We’ll take each of these one at a time and you tell me if you can see why they would like to have this information suppressed. It is to close the mouth of truth so that crimes against the people can continue to be committed. All six of these items come from the list that prosecutors put forward to the judge in the case and were subsequently struck down.
Each of the the things the prosecution attempted to silence is highlighted as a bulletpoint.
- References to the occupation of the Malheur national Wildlife Refuge, the subsequent trial, United States v. Ammon Bundy et al., or the result of the trial.
Now, why do you suppose they don’t want any mention of what took place in Oregon in 2016? It’s because there are two ranchers, Steven and Dwight Hammond, currently serving five years sentences under terrorism charges for starting backfires to protect family, property and cattle. One of those fires was allegedly due to the actions of a BLM agent starting a fire. However, BLM creates the same fires with destructive results. Take a look.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher
What Deb Jordan learned in court yesterday

WHAT I LEARNED: Yesterday in court I learned that out of the top 3 BLM leadership at the Bundy Ranch Protest -- 1 is a former US Marshal and the other 2 are former Secret Service agents. So what exactly has the BLM become?
In court yesterday the two BLM agents spoke in military terms to describe their operation at Bundy Ranch -- but were offended that the defendants were going to call the BLM militarized -- they spoke of surveillance --
"We had information coming in from our informants that "are" imbedded with the various Militia that were there and we also had 4 BLM agents who bought clothing at a local thrift-shop to go blend in with the crowd at various meetings and rallies they were having down there"

Trial Update: Day 6
Agent Sully was unable to recall seeing a vehicle not more than 30 feet away from his position where BLM and Park Police agents had weapons pointed at protesters. He testified that a man with dark facial hair pointed a weapon at him from the Northbound I-15 Bridge. He was able to see this, and not the vehicle right next to him. In cross examination, his report from 15 April 2014 (3 days after the protest), he makes no mention of this individual. Feb 2015, during an interview with the FBI and US Attorneys, he was allowed to make changes to his statement if his recollection had changed. He only added that he had acted as an undercover agent at rallies leading up to the protest. Two opportunities to mention this individual, he does not do so until trial.
BLM had 4 undercover agents at Bundy Ranch rallies, two teams of two. They helped erect banners and work on the stage. They were intricately involved, conducting conversational interviews, trying to ascertain the "threat level". By the 11th, agents had a photo list of "known militia members" and were using it to identify people in their reports. this is how one agent identified Ricky Lovelien, a Tier 3 defendant.
Todd Engel is batting 1000 at this point. his cross examination got Agent Sully to articulate that no protester committed any overt criminal action, that he could see. He ended by asking if the agent had been injured. He asked if any agent was injured. When Sully answered no. Todd asked, is it fair to say then that the only thing injured was the BLM's feelings. US Attorneys damn near jumped out of their skin trying to object. Damage was done. Todd returned to his seat.
Alex Ellis was a 17 year old aspiring journalist. He and journalist Michael Flynn traveled to the Bundy Ranch on the 11th. Flynn is deceased, but Ellis is allowed to testify concerning Flynn's video even though he wasn't the camera operator or in some cases anywhere close to Flynn when the videos were taken. Ellis testifies that he was "deterred" from exploring a road because of the presence of so many weapons. On the 12, they traveled to the wash to record the protest as it unfolded. Ellis did confirm what defendants have always insisted:
- A woman ran over to the meeting area and announced that the BLM was pointing weapons at people
- The BLM announced that they were able to use "up to lethal force"
Additionally, Flynn said on video that the BLM had announced "lethal force, deadly force". All 6 defense attorneys have tried repeatedly to exclude the video from evidence. The deceased cameraman makes substantially prejudicial and judgmental statements about the crowd and the state of mind of the agents behind the wash; neither of which he was able to reliably ascertain from his vantage point. Inclusion of his video also denies defendants the right to face their accuser.
Ellis' testimony will continue tomorrow.
Thursday will be one of the hardest days yet. Ellis will presumably identify Tier 3 defendants since his vantage point was the NB I-15 bridge. His testimony (pending cross examination) has so far been advantageous to the Government. He expresses reservation (if not outright fear) over the presence of people with weapons wearing camouflage clothing. This is a common thread so far from all witnesses. They were intimidated by the lawful possession of weapons.

Re: Armed Feds Prepare For Showdown With Nevada Cattle Rancher

Federal Government Continues to Chase Its Tail in the Bundy Trials
February 14, 2017 - Government/Politics, Oregon Standoff - Tagged: BLM, Bundy, federal, Nevada, Oregon, Range, RANGEfire, Standoff - no comments
Unlike the Oregon Standoff case, where the vast majority of defendants were released from pre-trial custody, in the Nevada case (which many consider to be an even weaker government case than Oregon), although only six defendants are in trial right now, well over a year later, with no trial date scheduled for the remaining Nevada defendants, they are all still in custoy in Nevada. Now, the government is starting to shuffle some of the defendants back to Portland to testify in the second Oregon Standoff Trial for four “lesser” defendants scheduled to start today.
http://rangefire.us/wp-content/uploa...-1-300x231.jpg
According to Maxine Bernstein and OregonLive, Defense lawyers for the four Oregon standoff defendants set for trial this week want Pete Santilli, who awaits prosecution in Nevada, to be flown to Oregon to testify on their behalf and to impeach another co-defendant, Blaine Cooper, now expected to be a government witness.
Jury selection starts Tuesday morning for the remaining four defendants accused of federal conspiracy, weapons and depredation of government property charges stemming from the 41-day seizure of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge last winter.
U.S. District Judge Anna J. Brown already has issued orders for occupation leaders Ammon Bundy, who was acquitted of all charges, and Ryan Payne, who has pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge, to be flown from Nevada to Oregon to testify for the defense.
The defendants’ request for Santilli was filed on Sunday, after defendants learned that Cooper, who pleaded guilty to the conspiracy charge in the refuge case last summer, is expected to testify for the prosecution.
The defense team estimated that Santilli’s testimony would last about half a day, and the lawyers have requested he be transferred to Oregon in early March. Santilli has agreed to testify, as long as his lawyer in Nevada can be present in court with him.
“Peter Santilli is a journalist who reported on the protest at the refuge from its inception, and has extensive personal knowledge of events relevant to these proceedings,” defense lawyer Jesse Merrithew wrote in his Sunday motion. “He was close to Blaine Cooper throughout the events at issue. Defendants intend to call Mr. Santilli to impeach the testimony of Blaine Cooper, who the government recently disclosed will testify as a government witness.”
Both Santilli and Cooper are in custody in Nevada. Santilli is awaiting trial in connection with the April 2014 armed standoff with Bureau of Land Management officers near the Bundy Ranch in Bunkerville, Nevada.
http://rangefire.us/wp-content/uploa...-2-300x210.jpg
Cooper, of Humboldt, Arizona, in August pleaded guilty to conspiracy and assault on a federal officer in the Nevada case, and is set to be sentenced in mid-March. Prosecutors are expected to recommend a six-year sentence, but he can argue for less time.
In the Oregon refuge takeover case, 26 people were indicted on federal conspiracy, weapons and other charges stemming from the occupation of the federal wildlife sanctuary outside of Burns in eastern Oregon. Seven people were acquitted of the charges after a five-week trial in Portland last fall. Eleven people have pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge, and three others have pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor trespassing charge.
Santilli had all charges dismissed against him on the eve of the fall trial. He never stayed overnight at the federal wildlife refuge, and his defense attorney in Oregon argued that much of the material he broadcast on his YouTube channel was protected speech under the First Amendment.
Cooper was part of the first convoy of people to drive to the refuge in Harney County on Jan. 2 from a demonstration in Burns, where he was protesting the return to federal prison of father and son ranchers Dwight Hammond Jr. and Steven Hammond.
Cooper, who has registered a film company called Third Watch Media, carried a camera while co-defendants armed with firearms cleared the refuge buildings that day, a prosecutor said at his plea hearing. Cooper also was seen driving government trucks on the refuge.
On Jan. 3, Cooper appeared on a video with occupation leader Ammon Bundy, in which Bundy promised to make the refuge a base for patriots to live and stay for several years, according to prosecutors. Cooper introduced himself on the video, and urged those who come to the refuge to, “Bring your arms!” Cooper left the refuge on Jan. 26 or 27, and was arrested in Utah on Feb. 11.
In the Nevada case, a Facebook exchange Cooper had with Santilli on April 8, 2014, was cited in court documents, in which Cooper wrote to Santilli that it was time to stop “all this huffing and puffing” over the microphones and “go down and do what we got to do” in Nevada. Prosecutors in Nevada described Cooper as a mid-level leader and organizer in the 2014 standoff there.
