WHOA: Ammon Bundy Trial Ends With Shocking Verdict AND a Taser #OregonStandoff

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


If you recall the now-infamous Oregon Standoff, Ammon Bundy and his crew got together at a National Wildlife Refuge and held it down for 41 days. The drama garnered national attention and drew the ire of the government, which sought to have them punished. Well… they didn’t get their wish.

A federal jury on Thursday found Ammon Bundy, his brother Ryan Bundy and five co-defendants not guilty of conspiring to prevent federal employees from doing their jobs through intimidation, threat or force during the 41-day occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.

The Bundy brothers and occupiers Jeff Banta and David Fry also were found not guilty of having guns in a federal facility. Kenneth Medenbach was found not guilty of stealing government property, and a hung jury was declared on Ryan Bundy’s charge of theft of FBI surveillance cameras.

Even more stunning than that was the use of a… well… stun gun on Bundy’s defense attorney, Marcus Mumford, who objected to the fact that his client was not allowed to leave a free man.

U.S. District Judge Anna J. Brown told him that there was a U.S. Marshal’s hold on him from a pending federal indictment in Nevada.

“If there’s a detainer, show me,” Mumford stood, arguing before the judge.

Suddenly, a group of about six U.S. Marshals surrounded Mumford at his defense table. The judge directed them to move back but moments later, the marshals  grabbed on to him.

“What are you doing?” Mumford yelled, as he struggled and was taken down to the floor.

As deputy marshals yelled, “Stop resisting,” the judge demanded, “Everybody out of the courtroom now!”

Mumford was taken into custody, a member of his legal team confirmed.

Ammon Bundy’s lawyer J. Morgan Philpot, said afterwards on the courthouse steps that Mumford had been arrested and marshals had used a stun gun, or Taser, on his back. Another member of Ammon Bundy’s legal team Rick Koerber, echoed Philpot, saying he heard Mumford questioning in court why they were using a Taser against him.

We’ll keep an eye out for any further fallout from the story, and bring you updates as they come in.
